Book of Enoch

The Book of Enoch (1 Enoch) is an ancient Jewish religious text composed of visions and revelations attributed to the patriarch Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. Written between 300-100 BCE, it contains apocalyptic prophecies, angelic hierarchies, and divine mysteries. This text influenced early Judaism and Christianity and is valued as a source of ancient theological thought.
