Proverbs 4:5-7
Proverbs 4:5-7
Enoch's text real
Many theologians, past & present, want people to disregard Enoch's written works as not only being forgeries but fictional.
The fact that Enoch walked faithfully with God for 300 years as mentioned in all versions of the modern & ancient Bibles, is reason enough not to disregard the epic body of work.
"Relatively recent discoveries have shown that his works were in fact genuine ancient Jewish text.
These discoveries were proof that the works were indeed ancient, widely read & respected long before the birth of Christianity".
However the timing of those & many religious documents are not correct.
As such we should, in trying to understand the true timing, start with the most read religious book in the world - the Bible.
Genesis 1 verse 1 in the Bible states…
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth".
Then, in the next verse, it states... "the earth was formless and empty".
If the Earth was formless, empty & there was no sun, the time between 'no form' to when it 'took on its form', as science has since correctly proven; using speed of light calculations, was in fact 4.5 billion years.
It took 3.7 billion years from when the first bacteria were introduce, along with selective evolution, to when the last ice age ended & humans started farming.
Confusion of the timing also came about when Ireland's Archbishop James Ussher, the main authority of the semitic text of the Hebrew Bible / Torah / Tanakh stated, in 1,650 AD, that the first day of creation was supposably on the 23rd of October 4,004 BC.
Scholars once all agreed with his calculation, some still do, that the Earth is supposed to be only 6,000 years old.
He also stated The Great Flood was 'world wide' & started 2348 BC or around 4,300 years ago.
In the Bible the term 'world wide' was a misunderstanding or a poor translation as was the case in Genesis 41 verse 27...
"And all the world came to Egypt to buy grain from Joseph, because the famine was severe".
2 Peter 3 verse 6... By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed everywhere.
All of the World meant - from coast to coast.
However as a northern hemisphere flood was a proven archaeological event timing should relate to this fact for a clear understanding.
Copied from A.I ...
"There was no documented, single "great flood" that affected the entire Northern Hemisphere in or around the years 4,000 BC. "
"Geological and archaeological evidence supports a significant, rapid flooding event occurring approximately 7,500 years ago (c. 5500–5600 BCE), which is often referred to as the Black Sea deluge hypothesis or part of a series of post-glacial sea-level rises that profoundly affected the Near East and Mesopotamia."
Mesopotamia was the area where Noah & his family lived.
It seems we can be certain that as there is no evidence of a great flood taking place in the northern hemisphere 4,000 years ago but ...
...there is strong evidence a great flooding started 7,500 years ago.
Then it is this date that should be used to correlate events in those early days.
The time from Adam to the flood was 1,656 years.
As we now know the flood started 7,500 years ago that means it was 9,156 + 30 years, the age Adam was given the higher soul meaning...
...9,186 years ago an advanced intelligence introduced a higher soul into the middle east that quickly spread throughout the entire world.
The advanced intelligence arrived back into earth 9,000 to 11,000 years ago in order to update their evolutionary progressions especially giving Adam a higher Soul Force.
This date coincides with the findings of the University of California "that about 10,000 years ago there was an abundance of recent adaptive mutations etched in the human genome.
Their data shows, human evolution occurred a hundred times more quickly than in any other period in our species’ history".
Most importantly what we are certain of is that about 10,000 years ago the evolution of mankind took a huge leap.
Enoch was the great - grandfather of Noah.
Enoch records that at the age of 65, he had a prophetic dream that one thousand years after the birth of his yet to be born first son - his son would die & at that time The Great Flood would start.
As such Enoch called his son Methuselah, for which the name means - "when he dies 'it' would be sent".
'It' was referring to The Great Flood.
Methuselah died at the age of 969. That was 1,656 years after Adam received his higher soul or as the Bible states that was when Adam became a living being.
A highly intelligent entity caused life on this, our planet, to begin evolving from introduced single celled bacterial organisms.
After millions of years of selective mutations life evolved from the primeval mud that eventually became living complexed creatures.
The most highly evolved, at that early time, were the humanoids. Genesis 1 verse 25.
Homo sapiens evolved 300, 000 years ago but they only began to lose some of their animalistic behaviors around 100, 000 years ago.
It was not until the end of the ice age, around 12, 000 years ago, that mankind began to live in settlements.
As a result of cultivating the land & domesticating farm animals mankind had time to become further educated.
It was around this time that higher intelligent entities again intervened with the evolution of life especially with homo-sapiens.
As a result, as previously mentioned, mankind had an explosion of intelligence as discovered by the research of the University of California.
They had a plan to elevate homo-sapiens into becoming like themselves by breeding with them thus enabling them to be able to accommodate a higher soul.
A soul higher than other animals... A Soul Force.
The reason for wanting a Higher Soul Force was to establish a symbiotic relationship between the two realms that ultimately enabled...
...those higher souls to become vessels transporting energy into their realm carried there by Souls upon the demise of the physical body.
This energy was to prevent stagnation of their realm from occurring.
One of the problems was to breed a class of man that not only had their physical & mental capabilities but also had an etheric component untainted by desire.
All animals are born with desires to reproduce.
All sins come from desires.
Sin reduces the strength of the Soul Force.
The higher intelligence, that instigated life here, themselves once had a physical existence, like us, where after eons of time they became elevated to an everlasting life in a spiritual realm.
They became aware that their realm was going to become stagnant.
What was needed to prevent the stagnation was a continuous flow of positive energy.
As a result they created this universe where they could cause a flow of positive energy to take place via physical life converting into spiritual life.
As stated previously the ideal time & place to introduce the higher Soul Force was during the start of the agriculture period in Mesopotamia’s Fertile Crescent that began around 11,000 - 12,000 years ago.
The problem was their animalistic desire to reproduce.
Desire is the root cause of all evil.
Evil desires cause the Soul Force to gravitate back to Earth upon the demise of the physical.
As a result it was deemed necessary to cause a human to be born without the use of sexual intercourse in that way eliminating from the DNA & the psyche the desire to engage in sexual intercourse.
This was achievable by selecting virgin females to be artificially impregnated with seed from an angel.
(Just like Mary & others that God had special plans for the offspring.)
Only the male offspring from those virgin mothers that had reached the age of 30 & they themselves were also still virgins would be used to become the transporting medium for the higher Soul Force.
Out of all those males only one was still a virgin at age 30.
He was renamed Adam.
Adam is a Hebrew name meaning "man," "mankind," or "earth"
It was only after Adam was given the "breath of life" that he was isolated into the garden.
The garden was a safe place where Adam's DNA & psyche could not become contaminated with sexual desires by those outside the garden.
The work Adam was assigned to do was that of attending to the garden & to make a heavenly place here on earth.
Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.
A.I. "The Garden of Eden was designed as a sacred space - a type of "heaven on earth"- where God would dwell with humanity, and Adam was assigned to cultivate, guard and expand it."
There is no sex between spirits in heaven as such there was to be no sex in a heavenly Earth.
However, the work for Adam became too hard for him to do alone.
As a consequence of not being able to make a suitable helper or find a suitable helper it was deemed necessary to clone a helper from one of Adam's ribs.
The plan was to create higher souls without the use of sex.
Neither Adam or Eve had in their DNA or psyche the desire for sex.
Both would have been taught how to procreate without sex but influences triggered by Satan destroyed their innocence & as such over the following years a community of people with Soul Forces that had become depraved permeated the known world.
Because of his faith in God Enoch was instructed by angels how to write using words written down on parchment using pen & ink in order for him to easily record events instead of using cuneiform writing onto clay tablets.
"The angel Penemue taught men to understand writing, and the use of pen, ink and paper".
"The name of the fourth is Penemue (angel): he discovered for the children of men bitterness & sweetness: And pointed out to them every secret of their wisdom".
Enoch's book was not included in the European version of The Bible for only three very weak reasons.
However because it was canonized text & regarded as a very important document it was included in the Ethiopian book of The Bible's Old Testament.
They told Enoch the information they were dictating was only for people of the far distant future.
Aside from foretelling of the Great Flood, known to have been 1,000 years (one heavenly day) in the future, they also told of the coming of the Messiah.
Considering no one else 'at that time' could read the written words the usual motives put forward by atheists regarding religious teachings said to control people renders those motives mute.
Enoch was told, in a prophetic dream, that after the death of his yet to be born son there would be a great flood that would end the lives of all but his great grandson Noah & his family that would start a new generation.
This was subsequently written down in his book... 1 Enoch 65.
As pointed out earlier archeology evidence coupled with folk histories now place a Great Flood, in the northern hemisphere, as taking place around 7, 500 years ago.
With much of the water coming from underground.
Genesis 7 verse 11, In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, on the seventeenth day of the second month--on that day 'all the springs of the great deep burst forth'.
...All the springs of... 'the great deep'... burst forth.
There is three times the water under the land & seas as there is on top.
see the chart ...
Enoch’s book was first written in Hebrew & later copied into Aramaic.
This became fact after fragments thought to be original, written in Hebrew, were found in the caves at Qumran on the shores of the Dead Sea.
The copies, written in Aramaic, also found in the same cave, could have lasted longer than the originals written in Hebrew.
The said to be originals were in a critical state of decay as such before becoming completely eaten away they would have been copied & at the same time were translated into Aramaic.
Most all of Enoch's scrolls found today, thought to be the originals, were in fact copies of copies as none of the originals stood the test of time.
You may agree that the first works of Enoch, said to contain great secrets, given by the angels, would have certainly been taken on the ark by Noah who was the great grand son of Enoch.
Enoch had his prophetic dream in the year 8,469; making this his earliest work & by far the oldest religious bibliography ever penned telling of, among other things...
The One Supreme God of Creation.
Thus stories of The Great Flood being claimed as belonging to other later civilizations means that it was they, in all probability, that plagiarized the account of the flood from Enoch's writings or...
...the story tellers, maybe also angels, relayed the story but it was retold without mentioning Enoch instead replaced by a demigod or a then current king's name.
It must be obvious that, as the book’s parchment deteriorated, over that long period of time, copies would have been made.
Copies made later does not mean they were forgeries neither does it mean the contents were inaccurate as some would like people today to believe.
His book, after his death & after The Great Flood, was known to have been continued by his...
...great great grandchildren who would have definitely had copies made as the originals, & later also the copies, must have certainly suffered decomposition during the additional 450 years of Japheth’s life, Noah’s youngest son.
Even those copies found much later the transcribers could have reworded parts to make the readers think they were the original authors of the work...
...& as such then been able to take the credits & rewards on offer, in those later times, for their own gain; be it those gains monitory, political or for religious motives.
However, that does not always mean the entire body of the texts & its relevance were altered.
Aside from those previously mentioned there were three other, very weak, reasons why the works of Enoch were not included in the Christian Bible.
"First was that from the book of Jude, in the Bible, describes “the Lord came” but in the book of Enoch it says...
“He will arrive” or “He cometh.”
Jude refers to the “Lord” as a past event while Enoch does not refer to the Lord & states it to be a future action.
Secondly, Jude states…
The Lord came with many thousands.
But Enoch writes…
“He will arrive with millions”
Many thousands could also mean millions.
This is said to be the only minor difference between those two quotes.
Third, also in Jude, states that…
“The Lord will execute judgment & convict the ungodly, but in Enoch it states that...
'He' will destroy and censure."
Not all older authentic religious historic texts were selected to be included in the Bible.
Some had misunderstood contradictions to text that later became understood & accepted.
Some were found after the completion of the Bible.
Some disregarded because of political reasons.
Some were in fact complete forgeries.
Considering the works written by Enoch, in the book of parables this, & all other works, that could have been replacement copies, said to contain ‘secret wisdom’ you might agree, would have certainly been taken on the ark by Noah who was the great-grandson of Enoch.
Some of Enoch’s writings could have been completely destroyed & as such, like many early teaching, were committed to memory & later written with errors in translations or some lost memories recalled incorrectly.
Keeping in mind Enoch was the first to be taught how to write with words, not hieroglyphs or cuneiform, using pen, ink & parchment.
All of his written works would have been taken on the ark along with most all other information given to him by the Lord God over the 300 - year period that “God walked with Enoch” as mentioned in the Bible Genesis 5 verses 22.
Take into consideration that the rate of parchment deterioration, at that earlier time, may not have been understood as such Enoch’s first writings would have to have been copied.
Then those copies may have been stored in earthen ware jugs that were not sealed & they also started to deteriorated quickly.
As mentioned previously copies have been made throughout the generation thought to be originals were in fact copies that others could have claimed they wrote.
Thus, stories of The Great Flood being claimed as belonging to other civilizations means that it was they, in all probability, that plagiarized the account of the great flood from Enoch’s writings...
...or the story tellers, maybe also from fallen angels, relayed the story but it was retold without mentioning Enoch instead replaced by the name of a demigod or a then current king's name.
The first section of the Book of Enoch describes the fall of the angels named Watchers, & was said to have been composed in the 3rd or 4th century BC, according to modern day Western scholars.
Only in the 3rd or 4th century before Christ ?
They, in all likelihood, were copies & the originals were, like many archaeological discoveries that recently, have now been found to be much older than first calculated.
"Reported in the British journal a study published in 'Nature' reported that some carbon dating estimates of age were inaccurate, with errors ranging from 3,500 to 20,000 years”.
The publication 'Lab Mate' also reports…
…"Taken alone, however...
The carbon dating is unreliable at best, and at worst downright inaccurate".
Again copies made later does not always mean they were forgeries neither does it mean the contents were inaccurate.
After the flood some of those parchments were actually transcribed back onto clay tablets.
Copies found much later the transcribers could have reworded parts to make the readers think they were the original authors of the work & as such then been able to take the credits & rewards on offer, at that later time, for their own gain, be it those gains monitory, political or for religious motives.
The Bible's older books were selected & compiled by Jews & as such due to the fact Enoch's books clearly mentions the Messiah it was in conflict with those Jews who denied Jesus was the chosen one & as such did not want to include Enoch's works.
Many Christians linked the Book of Enoch, mentioning the Son of Man, to be Jesus, the Messiah.
As the Old Testament books were compiled by Jews as such due to the fact Enoch's book clearly mentions the Messiah would be the son of God...
...this was in conflict with those Jews who denied Jesus was the chosen one & were, as such, successful in the removal of Enoch’s works from later publication of the modern versions of the Bible.
The Book of Enoch chapter 68:1...
"And after that my great grandfather Enoch gave me all the secrets in the book and in the parables which had been given to him, and he put them together for me in the words of the book of the parables"...
As the Old Testament books were compiled by Jews as such due to the fact Enoch's book clearly mentions the Messiah would be the son of God.
However, The Book of Micah, written between 735 & 710 BC, which is part of the Old Testament, prophesied in chapter 5 verse 2...
...the Messiah will be born in Bethlehem.
Enoch 46, verses 1 to 4, 48 verse 2 to 7 & 69 verse 26 to 29 mentions...
..."a Messiah called the "Son of Man, with divine attributes, generated before creation, who will act directly in the final judgment and sit on a throne of glory".
The Ethiopian Bible.
As the Great Flood is now recognized as occurring around 7,500 years ago or more & that considering Enoch's prophetic dream of the flood was before the birth of Methuselah whom after living 969 died before the flood...
Enoch's first writing was as at least 8, 469 years old; making his earliest work, by far the oldest religious bibliography ever penned.
As such the Ethiopian Bible, containing The Book of Enoch, is not only the oldest but is the most complete Bible on earth.
Because it was canonized text & regarded as a very important document it was included in the Ethiopian book of The Bible's Old Testament.
Written in an Ethiopian dead language.
The Ethiopian Bible has 88 books.
As such is the oldest & most complete Bible on earth.
The King James Version has 66 books.
