Enoch
The Book of Enoch (Idris) the Prophet; Noah and Archangel Prince Michael.
1:1 The word of the blessing of Enoch, how he blessed the Elect and the righteous, who were to exist in the "Time of Trouble"; to the rejection of all the wicked and unGodly (Ps. 1), Enoch, a righteous man, was with God, answered and spoke, while his eyes were open, and while he saw a holy vision which was in the heavens (Gen. 5:24). This the angel showed me (Noah).
1:2 From them I heard all things, and understood what I saw, that which will not take place in this generation, but in a generation which is to succeed at a distant period (Dan. 12:1-4), on account of the Elect (Matt. 24:22).
1:3 Upon their account I spoke and conversed with Him, Who will go forth from this habitation, the Holy and Mighty One, the God of the world.
1:4 Who will hereafter tread upon Mt. Sinai (Ex. 19:11, 18, 20; 24:16); appear with His hosts; and be manifested in the strength of His power from heaven.
1:5 All shall be afraid, and the Watchers be terrified.
1:6 Great fear and trembling shall seize them, even to the ends of the Earth. The holy "mountains" shall be troubled, and the exalted "hills" depressed, melting like a honeycomb in the flame. The Earth shall be immersed, and all things which are in it perish; while Judgement shall come upon all, even upon the righteous (Rev. 20:11-15; ch. 89:41).
1:7 But to them shall He give peace: He shall preserve the Elect, and towards them exercise clemency (ch. 6:11-12; Rev. 14:1-3; 21:27; Sura 69:18-24).
1:8 Then shall all belong to God; be happy and blessed; and the splendour of the Godhead shall illuminate them (Isa. 40:5; 65:21-25).
2:1 Behold He comes with ten thousands of His holy warriors, to execute Judgement upon them, and destroy the wicked, and reprove all of flesh for every thing which the sinful and unGodly have done, and committed against Him (Jude 14-15).
3:1 All who are in the heavens know the work.
3:2 They know that the heavenly luminaries change not their paths; that each rises and sets regularly, every one at its proper period, without transgressing the commands which they have received (Ps. 19:1-6). They behold the Earth, and understand what is transacted there, from the beginning to the end of it.
3:3 They see that every work of God is invariable (ch. 104:8-9) in the period of its appearance. They behold Summer and Winter; perceiving that the whole Earth is full of water; and that the cloud, the dew, and the rain refresh it.
4:1 They consider and behold every tree, how it appears to wither, and every leaf to fall off, except of fourteen trees, which are not deciduous; which wait from the old, to the appearance of the new leaf, for two or three Winters.
5:1 Again they consider the days of Summer that the sun is upon it at its very beginning; while you seek for a covered and shady spot on account of the burning sun; while the Earth is scorched up with fervid heat, and you become incapable of walking either upon the ground or upon the rocks in consequence of that heat.
6:1 They consider how the trees, when they put forth their green leaves, become covered, and produce fruit; understanding every thing, and knowing that He Who lives for ever does all these things for you:
6:2 That the works at the beginning of every existing year, that all His works, are subservient to Him, and invariable; yet as God has appointed, so are all things brought to pass.
6:3 They see, too, how the seas and the rivers together complete their respective operations:
6:4 But you endure not patiently, nor fulfill the Commandments of the Lord; but you transgress and slander His greatness; and malicious are the words in your polluted mouths against His Majesty.
6:5 Ye withered in heart, no peace shall be to you!
6:6 Therefore your days shall you curse, and the years of your lives shall perish; perpetual hatred shall be multiplied, and you shall not obtain mercy.
6:7 In those days shall you resign your peace with the eternal maledictions of all the righteous, and sinners will perpetually curse you;
6:8 Shall curse you with the unGodly.
6:9 The Elect shall possess Light, Joy, and Peace; and they shall inherit the Earth (Matt. 5:5; Ps. 1:1-6).
6:10 But you, ye unholy, shall be accursed.
6:11 Then shall Wisdom be given to the Elect, all of whom shall live, and not again transgress by disrespect or pride; but shall humble themselves, possessing prudence, and shall not repeat transgression (Rev. 12:7).
6:12 They shall not be condemned (to death again - the "dead" - Matt. 8:22) the whole period of their lives, nor die in torment and indignation; but the sum of the days of their life shall be completed, and they shall grow old in peace; while the years of their happiness shall be multiplied with Joy, and with Peace for ever, the whole duration of their existence.
7:1 It happened after the sons of men had multiplied in those days, that daughters were born to them, elegant and beautiful (Gen. 6:1-2).
7:2 And when the angels, the sons of heaven, beheld them, they became enamoured of them, saying to each other: Come, let us select for ourselves wives from the progeny of men, and let us beget children.
7:3 Then their leader Samyaza said to them; I fear that you may perhaps not be disposed to the performance of this enterprise;
7:4 And that I alone shall suffer for so grievous a crime.
7:5 But they answered him and said: We all swear;
7:6 And bind ourselves by mutual oaths, that we will not change our intention, but execute our projected undertaking.
7:7 Then they swore all together, and all bound themselves by mutual oaths. Their whole number was two hundred, who descended upon Ardis, which is the top of Mount Armon.
7:8 That mountain, therefore, they called Armon, because they had sworn upon it, and bound themselves by mutual oaths.
7:9 These are the names of their chiefs: Samyaza, who was their leader, Urakabarameel, Akibeel, Tamiel, Ramuel, Danyal, Azkeel, Sarakuyal, Asael, Armers, Batraal, Anane, Zavebe, Samsaveel, Ertael, Turel, Yomyael, Arazyal. These were the prefects of the two hundred angels, and the remainder were all with them.
7:10 Then they took wives, each choosing for himself; whom they began to approach, and with whom they cohabited; teaching them sorcery, incantation, and the dividing of roots and trees.
7:11 And they conceiving brought forth giants (Gen. 6:4-6);
7:12 Whose stature was each three hundred cubits. These devoured all which the labour of men produced; until it became impossible to feed them;
7:13 So they then turned themselves against men, in order to devour them;
7:14 And began to injure birds, beasts, reptiles, and fishes, to eat their flesh one after another, and to drink their blood.
7:15 Then the Earth reproved the unrighteous (by the climate and diseases).
8:1 Moreover Azazyel taught men to make swords, knives, shields, breastplates, made them see that which was behind them and the workmanship of bracelets and ornaments, the use of paint, the beautifying of the eyebrows, the use of stones of every valuable and select kind, and all sorts of dyes, so that the world became altered.
8:2 Disrespect increased; fornication multiplied; and they transgressed and corrupted all their ways.
8:3 Amazarak taught all the sorcerers, and dividers of roots;
8:4 Armers taught the solution of pharmacy;
8:5 Barakayal taught the observers of the stars;
8:6 Akibeel taught signs;
8:7 Tamiel taught astronomy;
8:8 And Asaredel taught the motion of the moon.
8:9 And men, being destroyed, cried out; and their voice reached to heaven.
9:1 Then Michael and Gabriel, Raphael, Suryal, and Uriel, looked down from heaven, and saw the quantity of blood which was shed on Earth, and all the iniquity which was done upon it, and said one to another: It is the voice of their cries;
9:2 The Earth, deprived of her children, has cried even to the gates of heaven.
9:3 And now to you, O ye holy ones of heaven, the souls (Beings) of men complain, saying: Bring Judgement to us from The Most High. Then they said to their Lord, the King: Thou art Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings. The Throne of Thy glory is for ever and ever, and for ever and ever is Thy name sanctified and glorified. Thou art blessed and glorified.
9:4 Thou hast made all things; Thou possessest power over all things; and all things are open and manifest before Thee. Thou beholdest all things, and nothing can be concealed from Thee (Mark 4:22).
9:5 Thou hast seen what Azazyel has done, how he has taught every species of iniquity upon Earth, and has disclosed to the world all the secret things which are done in the heavens.
9:6 Samyaza also has taught sorcery, to whom Thou hast given authority over those who are associated with him. They have gone together to the daughters of men; have lain with them; have become polluted.
9:7 And have discovered crimes to them.
9:8 The women furthermore have brought forth giants.
9:9 Thus has the whole Earth been filled with blood and with iniquity.
9:10 And now behold the souls (Beings) of those who are "dead" (Matt. 8:22), cry out,
9:11 And complain even to the gate of heaven.
9:12 Their groaning ascends; nor can they escape from the unrighteousness which is committed on Earth. Thou knowest all things, before they exist (Acts 15:18).
9:13 Thou knowest these things, and what has been done by them; yet Thou dost not speak to us.
9:14 What on account of these things ought we to do to them?
10:1 Then the Most High, the Great and Holy One spoke;
10:2 And sent Arsayalalyur to the son of Lamech
10:3 Saying: Say to him in My name; Conceal thyself.
10:4 Then explain to him the consummation which is about to take place; for all the Earth shall perish; the waters of a deluge shall come over the whole Earth, and all things which are in it shall be destroyed.
10:5 And now teach him how he may escape, and how his seed may remain in all the Earth (Gen. 6:11-22).
10:6 Again the Lord said to Raphael: Bind Azazyel hand and foot; cast him into darkness; and opening the desert which is in Dudael, cast him in there.
10:7 Throw upon him hurled and pointed stones (Sura 2:24); covering him with darkness;
10:8 There shall he remain for ever; cover his face, that he may not see the Light.
10:9 And in the great Day of Judgement let him be cast into The Fire (Rev. 20:10; Sura 2:24).
10:10 Restore the Earth, which the angels have corrupted; and announce life to it, that I may revive it.
10:11 All the sons of men shall not perish in consequence of every secret, by which the Watchers have destroyed, and which they have taught, their offspring.
10:12 All the Earth has been corrupted by the teaching of the work of Azazyel. To him therefore ascribe the whole crime.
10:13 To Gabriel also the Lord said: Go to the biters, to the reprobates, to the children of fornication; and destroy the children of fornication; the offspring of the Watchers, from among men; bring them forth, and send them one against another. Let them perish by mutual slaughter; for length of days shall not be theirs (Gen. 6:13).
10:14 They shall all entreat thee, but their fathers shall not obtain their wishes concerning them; for they shall hope for eternal Life, and that their sons may live, each of them, five hundred years.
10:15 To Michael likewise the Lord said: Go and announce his crime to Samyaza, and to the others who are with him, who have been associated with women, that they might be polluted with their impurity (Gen. 3:17; 1 Tim. 2:14).
10:16 And when all their sons shall be slain, when they shall see the destruction of their beloved, bind them for seventy generations underneath the Earth, even to the Day of Judgement, and of consummation, until The Judgement, the effect of which will last for ever, be completed.
10:17 Immediately after this shall he, together with them, burn and perish; they shall be bound until the consummation of many generations.
10:18 Destroy all the souls (Beings) addicted to dalliance, and the offspring of the Watchers, for they have tyrannized over mankind.
10:19 Let every oppressor perish from the face of the Earth;
10:20 Let every evil work be destroyed (Isa. 14:4).
10:21 The Plant of Righteousness and of rectitude appear, and the work of righteousness and rectitude become a blessing.
10:22 Righteousness and rectitude shall be for ever planted with delight (Isa. 26:9).
10:23 And then shall all the holy people give thanks, and live until they have begotten a thousand children, while the whole period of their youth, and their Sabbaths shall be complete in peace. In those days all the Earth shall be cultivated in righteousness; it shall be wholly planted with trees, and filled with benediction; every tree of delight shall be planted in it (Ps. 67).
10:24 In it shall vines be planted; and the vine which shall be planted in it shall yield fruit to excess; every seed, which shall be sown in it, shall produce for one measure a thousand; and one measure of olives shall produce ten presses of oil (Mic. 4:3-4).
10:25 Purify the Earth from all oppression, from all injustice, from all crime, from all disrespect, and from all the pollution which is committed upon it. Exterminate them from the Earth.
10:26 Then shall all the children of men be righteous, and all nations shall pay Me divine honours, and bless men; all shall adore Me (Isa. 33:22).
10:27 The Earth shall be cleansed from all corruption, from every crime, from all punishment, and from all suffering; neither will I again send a deluge upon it from generation to generation for ever.
11:1 In those days I will open the treasures of blessing which are in heaven, that I may cause them to descend upon Earth, and upon all the works and labour of man.
11:2 Peace and equality shall associate with the sons of men all the days of the world, in every generation of it.
12:1 Before all these things Enoch was concealed; nor did any one of the sons of men know where he was concealed, where he had been, and what had happened.
12:2 He was wholly engaged with the holy ones (Gen. 5:24), and with the Watchers in his days.
12:3 I, Enoch, was blessing the great Lord and King of Peace (Gen. 14:18).
12:4 And behold the Watchers called me Enoch the scribe (writer - the first Prophet).
12:5 Then the Lord said to me: Enoch, scribe of righteousness, go tell the Watchers of heaven, who have deserted the lofty sky, and their holy everlasting station who have been polluted with women
12:6 And have done as the sons of men do, by taking to themselves wives, and who have been greatly corrupted on the Earth;
12:7 That on the Earth they shall never obtain peace and remission of sin. For they shall not rejoice in their offspring; they shall behold the slaughter of their beloved; shall lament for the destruction of their sons; and shall petition for ever; but shall not obtain mercy and peace (2 Pet. 2:4-5).
13:1 Then Enoch passing on said to Azazyel: Thou shalt not obtain peace. A great sentence is gone forth against thee. He shall bind thee;
13:2 Neither shall relief, mercy and supplication be thine, on account of the oppression which thou hast taught;
13:3 And on account of every act of blasphemy, tyranny, and sin, which thou hast discovered to the children of men.
13:4 Then departing from him I spoke to them all together;
13:5 And they all became terrified, and trembled;
13:6 Beseeching me to write for them a memorial of supplication, that they might obtain forgiveness; and that I might make the memorial of their prayer ascend up before the God of heaven; because they could not themselves thenceforwards address Him, nor raise up their eyes to heaven on account of the disgraceful offense for which they were judged (ch. 67:4).
13:7 Then I wrote a memorial of their prayer and supplication, for their spirits, for every thing which they had done, and for the subject of their entreaty, (that they might obtain remission and rest).
13:8 Proceeding on, I continued over the waters of Danbadan, which is on the right to the West of Armon, reading the memorial of their prayer, until I fell asleep.
13:9 And behold a dream came to me, and visions appeared above me. I fell down, and saw a vision of punishment, that I might relate it to the sons of heaven (Gen. 6:2) and rebuke them. When I awoke I went to them. All being collected together stood weeping in Oubelseyael, which is situated between Lebanon and Seneser, with their faces veiled.
13:10 I related in their presence all the visions which I had seen, and my dream;
13:11 And began to utter these words of righteousness, rebuking the Watchers of heaven.
14:1 This is the Book (ch. 81:2) of the words of righteousness, and of the reproof of the Watchers, who belong to the world, according to that which He, Who is holy and great, commanded in the vision. I perceived in my dream, that I was now speaking with a tongue of flesh, and with my breath, which the Mighty One has put into the mouths of men, that they might converse with it;
14:2 And understand with the heart. As He has created and given to men the power of comprehending the Word of Understanding, so has He created and given to me the power of rebuking the Watchers, the offspring of heaven. I have written your petition; and in my vision it has been shown me, that what you request will not be granted you in all the days of the world.
14:3 Judgement has been passed upon you: your request will not be granted you.
14:4 From this time forward, never shall you ascend into heaven; He has said, that on the Earth He will bind you, as long as the world endures (Jude 6).
14:5 But before these things you shall behold the destruction of your beloved sons; you shall not possess them, but they shall fall before you by the sword;
14:6 Neither shall you appeal for them, nor for yourselves.
14:7 But you shall weep and supplicate in silence. The words of the Book which I wrote.
14:8 A vision thus appeared to me.
14:9 Behold, in that vision clouds invited me, and a mist invited me; the running of the stars and flashes of lightning impelled and pressed me forwards, while winds in the vision assisted my flight, hastening me.
14:10 They elevated me aloft to heaven. I proceeded, until I arrived at a wall built with stones of crystal (Rev. 21:11). A tongue of fire surrounded it, which began to strike me with terror.
14:11 Into this vibrating flame I entered (2 kings 2:11);
14:12 And drew near to a spacious habitation built also with stones of crystal. Its wall, too, as well as pavement, were formed with stones of crystal, and crystal likewise was the ground. Its roof had the appearance of the running of the stars and flashes of lightning; and among them were cherubim of fire whose heaven was water. A flame burned around its walls and its portal blazed with fire. When I entered into this dwelling, it was hot as fire and cold as ice. No trace of delight or of life was there. Terror overwhelmed me, and a fearful shaking seized me.
14:13 Violently agitated and trembling, I fell upon my face. In the vision I looked;
14:14 And behold there was another habitation more spacious than the former (Rev. 21:11, 18), every entrance to which was open before me, erected in the midst of a vibrating flame.
14:15 So greatly did it excel (the former) in all points, in glory, in magnificence, and in magnitude, that it is impossible to describe to you either the splendour or the extent of it.
14:16 Its floor was on fire; above were lightnings and agitated stars, while its roof exhibited a blazing fire.
14:17 Attentively I surveyed it, and saw that it contained an exalted throne;
14:18 The appearance of which was like that of frost; while its circumference resembled the orb of the brilliant sun; and there was the voice of the cherubim.
14:19 From underneath this mighty throne rivers of flaming fire issued.
14:20 To look upon it was impossible.
14:21 One great in glory sat upon it (Rev. 4:2-11)
14:22 Whose robe was brighter than the Sun, and whiter than snow.
14:23 No angel was capable of penetrating to view the face of Him, the Glorious and the Beaming; nor could any mortal behold Him (John 1:18). A fire of flaming fire was around Him.
14:24 A fire also of great extent continued to rise up before Him; so that not one of those who surrounded Him was capable of approaching Him, among the myriads of myriads who were before Him (Rev. 5:11-12). And He required NOT holy counsel. Yet did not the sanctified, who were near Him, depart far from Him either by night or by day; nor were they removed from Him. I also was advanced so far, with a veil on my face, and trembling. Then the Lord with His Own mouth called me, saying: Approach here, Enoch, at My holy word.
14:25 And He raised me up, making me near even to the entrance. My eye was directed to the ground.
15:1 Then addressing me, He spoke and said: Hear, neither be afraid, O Enoch, O righteous man, and scribe of righteousness: approach here, and hear My voice. Go, say to the Watchers of heaven, who have sent thee to pray for them; You ought to pray for men, and not men for you.
15:2 Why have you forsaken your lofty and holy heaven, which endures for ever, and have lain with women; have defiled yourselves with the daughters of men; have taken to yourselves wives; have acted like the sons of the earth, and have begotten giants? (Gen. 6:2,4)
15:3 You who are spirit-Beings, holy, and having a life that is eternal, have lusted in the blood of men; and have done as those who are flesh and blood do.
15:4 These however die and perish.
15:5 Therefore have I given to them wives, that they might cohabit with them; that sons might be born of them, and that this might be transacted upon Earth.
15:6 But you from the beginning were made spiritual, living a life that is eternal, and not subject to death in all the generations of the world.
15:7 Therefore I made not wives for you, because being spiritual, your dwelling is in heaven (Matt. 22:30).
15:8 Now the giants, who have been born of spirit and of flesh, shall be called upon earth evil spirits, and on Earth shall be their habitation. Evil spirits shall proceed from their flesh, because they were created from above; from the holy Watchers was their beginning and primary foundation. Evil spirits (demons) shall they be upon Earth, and the spirits of the wicked shall they be called. The habitation of the spirits of heaven shall be in heaven; but upon Earth shall be the habitation of terrestrial spirits, who are born in earth (1 Cor. 15:40).
15:9 The spirits of the giants shall be like clouds, which shall oppress, corrupt, fall, contend, and bruise upon Earth.
15:10 They shall cause lamentation. No food shall they eat; and they shall be thirsty; they shall be concealed, and those spirits (demons) shall rise up against the sons of men, and against women; for they come forth during the days of slaughter and destruction (Luke 4:33, 36; Matt. 8:28-34).
16:1 And as to the death of the giants, wheresoever their spirits (Beings) depart from their bodies, let their flesh, that which is perishable, be without Judgement. Thus shall they perish, until the day of the great consummation of the whole world. It shall be consummated respecting the Watchers and the irreverent (disrespectful).
16:2 And now to the Watchers, who have sent thee to pray for them, who in the beginning were in heaven,
16:3 Say: In heaven have you been; secret things however have not been manifested to you; yet you have known a reprobated mystery (Rev. 17:5).
16:4 And this you have related to women in the hardness of your heart, and by that mystery (Rev. 17:5) have women and mankind multiplied evils upon the Earth (Jude 4, 6, 13).
16:5 Say to them: Never therefore shall you obtain peace.
17:1 They raised me up into a certain place, where there was the appearance of a burning fire; and when they pleased they assumed the likeness of men.
17:2 They carried me to a lofty spot, to a mountain, the top of which reached to heaven.
17:3 And I beheld the receptacles of light and of thunder at the extremities of the place, where it was deepest. There was a bow of fire, and arrows in their quiver, a sword of fire (light-sabre), and every species of lightning.
17:4 Then they elevated me to the Water of Life, which spoke, and to a fire in the West, which received all the setting of the Sun. I came to a river of fire, which flowed like water, and emptied itself into the great sea westwards.
17:5 I saw every large river, until I arrived at the great darkness. I went to where all flesh migrate; and beheld the "mountains" of the gloom which constitutes "Winter", and the place from which issues the water in every abyss.
17:6 I saw also the mouths of all the rivers in the world, and the mouths of the deep.
18:1 I then surveyed the receptacles of all the winds, perceiving that in them were the ornaments of the whole creation, and to preserve the foundation of the Earth.
18:2 I surveyed the Stone which supports the corners of the Earth (Corner-Stone - Matt. 21:42).
18:3 I also beheld the four winds, which bear up the Earth, and the firmament of heaven.
18:4 And I beheld the winds occupying the height of heaven.
18:5 Arising in the midst of heaven and of Earth, and constituting the pillars of heaven.
18:6 I saw the winds which turn the sky, which cause the orb of the sun and of all the stars to set; and over the Earth I saw the winds which support the clouds.
18:7 I saw the path of the angels.
18:8 I perceived at the extremity of the Earth the firmament of heaven above it. Then I passed on towards the South;
18:9 Where burnt, both by day and night, six mountains formed of glorious stones; three towards the East, and three towards the South.
18:10 Those which were towards the East were of a variegated stone; one of which was of margarite, and another of antimony. Those towards the South were of a red stone. The middle one reached to heaven like the Throne of God; a throne composed of alabaster, the top of which was of sapphire. I saw, too, a blazing fire which was over all of the mountains.
18:11 And there I saw a place on the other side of an extended territory, where waters were collected.
18:12 I likewise beheld terrestrial fountains, deep in the fiery columns of heaven.
18:13 And in the columns of heaven I beheld fires, which descended without number, but neither on high, nor in the deep. Over these fountains also I perceived a place which had neither the firmament of heaven above it, nor the solid ground underneath it; neither was there water above it, nor any thing on wing; but the spot was desolate.
18:14 And there I beheld seven stars, like great blazing mountains, and like spirits entreating me.
18:15 Then the angel said: This place, until the consummation of heaven and Earth will be the PRISON for the stars, and the host of heaven (Rev. 12:7-9).
18:16 The stars (Beings of light - Rev. 9:1) which roll over fire are those which transgressed the Commandment of God before their time arrived; for they came not in their proper season. Therefore was He offended with them, and bound them, until the period of the consummation of their crimes in the secret year (Matt. 24:36; Sura 7:187).
19:1 Then Uriel said: Here the angels, who cohabited with women, appointed their leaders;
19:2 And being numerous in appearance made men profane, and caused them to err; so that they sacrificed to devils like as to gods. For in the great day there shall be a Judgement with which they shall be judged, until they are consumed; and their wives also shall be judged, who led astray the angels of heaven that they might salute them (Eze. 13:18-22; 2 Pet. 2:4-5).
19:3 And I, Enoch, I alone saw the likeness of the end of all things. Nor did any human+Being see it as I saw it.
20:1 These are the names of the angels who watch.
20:2 Uriel, one of the holy angels, he it is who is over clamour and terror.
20:3 Raphael, one of the holy angels, who is over the spirits of men (ch. 40:9).
20:4 Raguel, one of the holy angels, who inflicts punishment on the world and the luminaries.
20:5 Michael, one of the holy angels, who presiding over human virtue, commands the nations (Dan. 12:1; Sura 2:98).
20:6 Sarakiel, one of the holy angels, who presides over the spirits of the children of men that transgress.
20:7 Gabriel, one of the holy angels (Luke 1:19), who is over Ikisat, over Paradise (the place "para-dice" - "in order to be told": all they did), and over the cherubim.
21:1 Then I made a circuit to a place in which nothing was completed.
21:2 And there I beheld neither the tremendous workmanship of an exalted heaven, nor of an established Earth, but a desolate spot, prepared and terrifying.
21:3 There, too, I beheld seven stars (Beings of light - Rev. 9:1) of heaven bound in it together, like great mountains, and like a blazing fire. I exclaimed: For what species of crime have they been bound, and why have they been removed to this place? Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, and who conducted me, answered: Enoch, why dost thou ask; why reason with thyself, and anxiously inquire? These are those of the stars (Rev. 12:4) who have transgressed the Commandment of the Most High God (Rev. 1:20); and are here bound, until the infinite number of the days of their punishment for their crimes be completed.
21:4 From there I afterwards passed on to another terrifying place;
21:5 Where I beheld the operation of a great fire blazing and glittering, in the midst of which there was a division. Columns of fire struggled together to the end of the abyss, and deep was their descent. But neither its measurement nor magnitude was I able to discover; neither could I perceive its origin. Then I exclaimed: How terrible is this place, and how difficult to explore!
21:6 Uriel, one of the holy angels who was with me, answered and said: Enoch, why art thou alarmed and amazed at this terrifying place, at the sight of this place of suffering? This, he said, is the prison of the angels; and here are they kept forever.
22:1 From there I proceeded to another spot, where I saw on the West a great and lofty mountain, a strong rock, and four delightful places.
22:2 Internally it was deep, capacious, and very smooth; as smooth as if it had been rolled over; it was both deep and dark to behold.
22:3 Then Raphael, one of the holy angels who were with me, answered and said: These are the delightful places where the spirits, the souls of the dead, will be collected; for them they were formed; and here will be collected all the souls of the sons of men (John 5:28-29).
22:4 These places, in which they dwell, shall they occupy in advance of the Day of Judgement, and until their appointed time.
22:5 Their appointed time will be far off, even until the great Judgement. And I saw the spirits of the sons of men who were dead, and their voices reached to heaven, while they were accusing (Rev. 6:9-10).
22:6 Then I inquired of Raphael, an angel who was with me, and said: Whose spirit is that, the voice of which reaches to heaven, and accuses?
22:7 He answered, saying: This is the spirit of Abel (the Breath of Life), who was slain by Cain (Possessions) his brother; and he will accuse him, until his (Cain's - Canaanites - Ex. 15:15) seed (materialists) be destroyed from the face of the Earth (Gen. 4:10; Rev. 6:9-10);
22:8 Until Cain's (Possessions') seed perish from the seed of the human race.
22:9 At that time therefore I inquired respecting him, and respecting the general Judgement, saying: Why is one separated from another? He answered: Three separations have been made between the spirits of the dead, and thus have the spirits of the righteous been separated.
22:10 Namely by a chasm, by water, and by light above it.
22:11 And in the same way likewise are sinners separated when they die, and are buried in the earth; Judgement not overtaking them in their lifetime.
22:12 Here their souls are separated. Moreover, abundant is their suffering until The Time of The Great Judgement, The Castigation, and The Torment of those who eternally curse, whose souls (Beings) are punished and bounded there forever.
22:13 And thus has it been from the beginning of the world. Thus has there existed a separation between the souls (Beings) of those who utter complaints, and of those who watch for their destruction, to slaughter them in the Day of Sinners.
22:14 Thus has it been made for the souls of unrighteous men, and of sinners; of those who have completed crime, and associated with the disrespectful, whom they resemble. Their souls shall not be annihilated in the Day of Judgement, neither shall they arise from this place. Then I blessed God,
22:15 And said: Blessed be my Lord, the Lord of Glory and of Righteousness, Who reigns over ALL for ever and for ever.
23:1 From there I went to another place, towards the West, unto the extremities of the Earth.
23:2 Where I beheld a fire blazing and running along without cessation, which did not intermit its course either by day or by night, but continued always the same.
23:3 I inquired, saying: What is this, which never ceases?
23:4 Then Raguel, one of the holy angels who were with me, answered,
23:5 And said: This blazing fire, which thou beholdest running towards the West, is that of all the luminaries of heaven.
24:1 I went from there to another place, and saw a mountain of fire flashing both by day and night. I proceeded toward it; and perceived seven splendid mountains, which were all different from each other.
24:2 Their stones are brilliant and beautiful; all were brilliant and splendid to behold; and beautiful was their surface. Three mountains were toward the East, and strengthened by being placed one upon another; and three were towards the South, strengthened in a similar manner. There were likewise deep valleys, which did not approach each other. And the seventh mountain was in the midst of them. In length they all resembled the seat of a throne, and odouriferous trees surrounded them.
24:3 Among these there was a tree of an unceasing smell; not of all the fragrant trees of those that were in Eden was there one which smelt like this. Its leaf, its flower, and its bark never withered, and its fruit was beautiful.
24:4 Its fruit resembled the cluster of the palm. I exclaimed: Behold! this tree is goodly in aspect, pleasing in its leaf and the sight of its fruit is delightful to the eye. Then Michael, one of the holy and glorious angels who were with me, and who presided over them (Dan. 10:21; Rev. 5:5), answered,
24:5 And said: Enoch, why dost thou inquire respecting the odour of this tree?
24:6 Why art thou inquisitive to know it?
24:7 Then I, Enoch, replied to him, and said: Concerning everything I am desirous of instruction, but particularly concerning this tree.
24:8 He answered me, saying: That mountain that thou beholdest, the extent of whose head resembles the Seat of the Lord, will be the seat on which shall sit the holy and great Lord of Glory, the Everlasting King (2 Esd. 13:6), when He shall come and descend to visit the Earth with goodness. (Dan. 7:13-14; Luke 1:32-33).
24:9 And that tree of an agreeable smell, not one of flesh, there shall be no power to touch, until the period of The Great Judgement. When all shall be punished and consumed for ever, this shall be bestowed on the righteous and humble. The fruit of this tree shall be given to the Elect. For, towards the North, Life shall be planted in the Holy Place, towards the habitation of the Everlasting King.
24:10 Then shall they greatly rejoice and delight in the Holy One. The sweet odour shall enter into their bones; and they shall live a long life on the Earth (1000 years - Rev. 20:4), as thy forefathers have lived; neither in their days shall sorrow, distress, trouble, and punishment afflict them.
24:11 And I blessed the Lord of Glory, the Everlasting King, because He has prepared this tree (of Life) for the Elect, formed it, and declared that He would give it to them (Rev. 22:2).
25:1 From there I proceeded to the middle of the Earth, and beheld a happy and fertile spot, which contained branches continually sprouting from the trees that were planted in it. There I saw a holy mountain, and underneath it water on the eastern side, which flowed towards the South. I saw also on the East another mountain as high as that; and between them there were deep, but not wide valleys.
25:2 Water ran towards the mountain to the West of this; and underneath there was likewise another mountain.
25:3 There was a valley, but not a wide one, below it; and in the midst of them were other deep and dry valleys towards the extremity of the three. All these valleys, which were deep, but not wide, consisted of a strong rock, with a tree which was planted in them. And I wondered at the rock and at the valleys, being extremely surprised.
26:1 Then I said: What means this blessed land, all these lofty trees, and the accursed valley between them?
26:2 Then Uriel, one of the holy angels who were with me, replied: This valley is the accursed of the accursed for ever. Here shall be collected all who utter with their mouths unbecoming language against God, and speak harsh things of His glory. Here shall they be collected. Here shall be their territory (Jude 15, 16).
26:3 In the latter days an example of judgement shall be made of them in righteousness before the holy people; while those who have received mercy shall for ever, all their days, bless God, the Everlasting King.
26:4 And at the Period of Judgement shall they bless Him for His mercy, as He has distributed it to them. Then I blessed God, addressing myself to Him, and making mention, as was becoming, of His greatness.
27:1 From there I proceeded towards the East, to the middle of the mountain in the desert, of which I perceived only the level surface.
27:2 It was full of trees, of the seed alluded to, and water leaped down upon it.
27:3 There appeared a cataract composed of as many cataracts both toward the West and toward the East. Upon one side were trees; upon the other water and dew.
28:1 Then I went to another place from the desert, towards the East of that mountain which I had approached.
28:2 There I beheld trees of judgement, particularly furniture of the sweet smell of frankincense and myrrh; and trees unlike to each other.
28:3 And over it, above them, was the elevation of the eastern mountain at no great distance.
29:1 I likewise saw another place with valleys of water which never wasted.
29:2 Where I perceived a goodly tree, which in smell resembled Zasakinon.
29:3 And towards the sides of these valleys I perceived cinnamon of a sweet odour. Over them I advanced towards the East.
30:1 Then I beheld another mountain containing trees, from which water flowed like Neketro. Its name was Sarira, and Kalboneba. And upon this mountain I beheld another mountain, upon which were trees of Alva.
30:2 The trees were full, like almond trees, and strong; and when they produced fruit it was superior to all perfume.
31:1 After these things, surveying the entrances of the North, above the mountains, I perceived seven mountains replete with pure nard, odouriferous trees, cinnamon and papyrus.
31:2 From there I passed on above the summits of those mountains to some distance eastwards, and went over the Erythraean sea. And when I was advanced far beyond it, I passed along above the angel Zateel, and arrived at the Garden of Righteousness. In this garden I beheld, among other trees, some which were numerous and large, and which flourished there.
31:3 Their fragrance was agreeable and powerful, and their appearance both varied and elegant. The "tree of knowledge" (science - 1 Tim. 5:20) also was there, of which if anyone eats, he becomes endowed with vast (worldly-satanic) wisdom.
31:4 It was like a species of the tamarind tree, bearing fruit which resembled grapes extremely fine; and its fragrance extended to a considerable distance. I exclaimed: How beautiful is this tree, and how delightful is its appearance (Rev. 17:6)!
31:5 Then holy Raphael, an angel who was with me, answered and said: This is the "tree of knowledge" (of evil), of which thy ancient father and mother ate, who were before thee; and who, obtaining knowledge (from the d/evil), their eyes being opened, and knowing themselves to be naked, were expelled from The Garden (Gen. 2:9; 3:6, 24).
32:1 From there I went on towards the extremities of the Earth; where I saw large beasts different from each other, and birds various in their countenances and forms, as well as with notes of different sounds.
32:2 To the East of these beasts I perceived the extremities of the Earth, where heaven ceased. The gates of heaven stood open, and I beheld the celestial stars come forth. I numbered them as they proceeded out of the gate, and wrote them all down, as they came out one by one according to their number. I wrote down their names altogether, their times and their seasons, as the angel Uriel, who was with me, pointed them out to me.
32:3 He showed them all to me, and wrote down an account of them.
32:4 He also wrote down for me their names, their regulations, and their operations.
33:1 From there I advanced on towards the North, to the extremities of the Earth.
33:2 And there I saw a great and glorious wonder at the extremities of the whole Earth.
33:3 I saw there heavenly gates opening into heaven; three of them distinctly separated. The northern winds proceeded from them, blowing cold, hail, frost, snow, dew, and rain.
33:4 From one of the gates they blew mildly; but when they blew from the two other gates, it was with violence and force. They blew over the Earth strongly.
34:1 From there I went to the extremities of the world westwards;
34:2 Where I perceived three gates open, as I had seen in the East; the gates and passages through them being of equal magnitude.
35:1 Then I proceeded to the extremities of the Earth southwards; where I saw three gates open to the South, from which issued dew, rain, and wind.
35:2 From there I went to the extremities of heaven eastwards; where I saw three heavenly gates open to the East, which had smaller gates within them. Through each of these small gates the stars of heaven passed on, and proceeded towards the West by a path which was seen by them, and that, at every period of their appearance.
35:3 When I beheld them, I blessed; every time, in which they appeared, I blessed the Lord of Glory, Who had made those great and splendid Signs, that they might display the magnificence of His words to angels and to the souls (Beings/jinns) of men; and that these might glorify all His works and operations; might see the effect of this power; might glorify the great labour of His hands; and bless Him for ever (Job 38).
36:1 This is the Book of the parables, that had been given to my great grandfather Enoch by The Most High, in which Prince Michael the Archangel has inserted for me (Noah) the Signs of all secret things (Dan. 10:21; Rev. 12:7; Sura 2:98).
37:1 The vision which he saw, the Second Vision of Wisdom, which Enoch saw, the son of Jared, the son of Mahalaleel, the son of Cainan, the son of Enos, the son of Seth, the son of Adam. This is the commencement of the word of Wisdom, which I (Noah) received to declare and tell to those who dwell upon Earth. Hear from The Beginning, and understand to The End, the holy things which I utter in the presence of the Lord of Spirits (hosts). Those who were before us thought it good to speak;
37:2 And let not us, who come after, obstruct the Beginning of Wisdom (Ps. 111:10; Prov. 9:10). Until the present period never has there been given before the Lord of Spirits that which I have received, Wisdom according as I have thought, and according to the pleasure of the Lord of Spirits; that which has been given to me by Him, a portion of Life Eternal.
37:3 And I obtained three parables which I declared to the inhabitants of the world (ch. 67:1).
38:1 PARABLE THE FIRST. When the congregation of the righteous shall be manifested; and sinners be judged for their crimes, and be troubled in the sight of the world;
38:2 When Righteousness shall be manifested in the presence of the righteous themselves, who will be elected for their good works duly weighed by the Lord of Spirits; and when the Light of the righteous and the Elect, who dwell on Earth, shall be manifested; where will the habitation of sinners be, and where the place of rest for those who have rejected the Lord of Spirits? It would have been better for them, never to have been born.
38:3 When too, the secrets of the righteous shall be revealed, then shall sinners be judged; and disrespectful men shall be afflicted in the presence of the righteous and the Elect.
38:4 From that period those who possess the Earth shall not be powerful and exalted. Neither shall they be capable of beholding the countenances of the holy, for the Light of the countenances of the holy, the righteous, and the Elect, has been seen by the Lord of Spirits (Dan. 12:10).
38:5 Yet shall the mighty kings of that period not be destroyed; but be delivered into the hands of the righteous and the holy (Ps. 149:9).
38:6 Nor henceforwards shall they obtain pity from the Lord of Spirits, because their lives in this world will have been completed.
39:1 In those days shall the elect and holy race descend from the upper heavens (Rev. 21:2), and their seed shall then be with the sons of men (Rev. 30:14). Enoch received books of indignation and wrath, and books of hurry and agitation.
39:2 Never shall they obtain mercy, saith the Lord of Spirits.
39:3 A "cloud" then snatched (beamed) me up, and the wind raised me above the surface of the Earth (2 kings 2:11), placing me at the extremity of the heavens.
39:4 There I saw another vision; I saw the habitations and couches of the holy people. There my eyes beheld their habitations with the angels, and their couches with the holy ones (Sura 18:31). They were entreating, supplicating, and praying for the sons of men; while righteousness like water flowed before them, and mercy like dew was scattered over the Earth. And thus shall it be with them for ever and ever.
39:5 At that time my eyes beheld the place of the Elect, of Truth, Faith (Trust in God), and Righteousness.
39:6 Countless shall be the number of the holy and the Elect, in His presence for ever and ever.
39:7 Their residence I beheld under the wings of the Lord of Spirits (Ps. 36:7; Matt. 23:37). All the holy and the Elect sung before Him, in appearance like a blaze of fire; their mouths being full of blessings, and their lips glorifying the name of the Lord of Spirits (Isa. 42:10; Rev. 14:3; 15:2-4). And righteousness incessantly dwelt before Him.
39:8 There was I desirous of remaining, and my soul longed for that habitation. There was my former estate (Thom. 8:8); for thus had it been commanded respecting me before the Lord of Spirits.
39:9 At that time I glorified and extolled the name of the Lord of Spirits with blessing and with praise; for He has established it with blessing and with praise, according to the Will of the Lord of Spirits.
39:10 That place long did my eyes contemplate. I blessed and said: Blessed be He, blessed from the beginning for ever. In the beginning, before the world was created, and without end He knows.
39:11 What is this world (Sura 6:32)? Of every existing generation those shall bless Thee who do not sleep in the dust, but stand before Thy glory, blessing, glorifying, exalting Thee, and saying: The Holy, Holy, Lord of Spirits, fills the whole world of spirits (1 Thess. 4:15-18).
39:12 There my eyes beheld all who, without sleeping, stand before Him and bless Him, saying: Blessed be Thou, and blessed be the name of God for ever and for ever. Then my countenance became changed, until I was incapable of seeing.
40:1 After this I beheld thousands of thousands, and myriads of myriads, and an infinite number of people, standing before the Lord of Spirits (Rev. 5:11).
40:2 On the four wings likewise of the Lord of Spirits, on the four sides, I perceived others, besides those who were standing before Him. Their names, too, I know, because the angel, who proceeded with me, declared them to me, discovering to me every secret thing.
40:3 Then I heard the voices of those upon the four sides magnifying the Lord of Glory.
40:4 The first voice blessed the Lord of Spirits for ever and for ever.
40:5 The second voice I heard blessing the Elect One (Messiah/Christ), and the Elect who were crucified on account of their allegiance to the Lord of Spirits (Gal. 2:20; 2 Tim. 2:12, 3:12).
40:6 The third voice I heard petitioning and praying for those who dwell upon Earth, and supplicate the name of the Lord of Spirits.
40:7 The fourth voice I heard expelling the satans (opposers), and prohibiting them from entering into the presence of the Lord of Spirits, to present accusations against the inhabitants of the Earth (Job 1:6-12).
40:8 After this I besought the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, to explain all that was concealed. I said to him: Who are those whom I have seen on the four sides and whose words I have heard and written down? He replied: The first is the merciful, the patient (Isa. 42:14), the holy Michael (Dan. 10:21; 12:1; Sura 2:98).
40:9 The second (40:5) is he who presides over every suffering and every wound of the sons of men (Rev. 5:9), the holy Raphael. The third who presides over all that is powerful, is Gabriel (Luke 1:19; Sura 2:97). And the fourth, who presides over repentance, and the hope of those who will inherit Eternal Life, is Phanuel. These are the four angels of the Most High God, and their four voices which at that time I heard.
41:1 After this I beheld the secrets of the heavens and of Paradise (the Astral Plain - "para-dice - in order to be told" - the truth of all they did), according to its divisions; and of human actions, as they weigh it there in Balances (ch. 60:11). I saw the habitations of the Elect, and the habitations of the holy. And there my eyes beheld all the sinners, who denied the Lord of Glory, and whom they were expelling from there, and dragging away, as they stood there, no punishment proceeding against them from the Lord of Spirits.
41:2 There, too, my eyes beheld the secrets of the lightning and the thunder; and the secrets of the winds, how they are distributed as they blow over the Earth; the secrets of the winds, of the dew, and of the clouds. There I perceived the place from which they issued forth, and became saturated with the dust of the Earth.
41:3 There I saw the receptacles of woods out of which the winds became separated (2 Esdras 5:5), the receptacle of hail, the receptacle of snow, the receptacle of clouds, and the cloud itself, which continued over the Earth before the Creation of the world. (Job 38:22-41).
41:4 I beheld also the receptacles of the moon, whence they came, where they proceeded, their glorious return, and how one became more splendid than another. I marked their right progress, their unchangeable progress, their disunited and undiminished progress; their observance of a mutual fidelity by an oath to which they adhered; their proceeding forth before the sun, and their adherence to their path, in obedience to the command of the Lord of Spirits. Potent is His name for ever and ever.
41:5 After this I perceived, that the path both concealed and manifest of the moon, as well as the progress of its path, was there completed by day and by night; while each, one with another, looked toward the Lord of Spirits, magnifying and praising without cessation, since praise to them is rest; for in the splendid sun there is a frequent conversion to blessing and to malediction (Ecc. 11:7).
41:6 The course of the moon's path to the righteous is light, but to sinners it is darkness; in the name of the Lord of Spirits, Who created a division between Light and Darkness (Luke 16:26), and separating the spirits of men, strengthened the spirits of the righteous in the name of His Own Righteousness (Isaiah 30:26).
41:7 Nor does the angel prevent this, neither is he endowed with the power of preventing it; for the Judge beholds them all, and judges them all in His Own presence (Gen. 1:14; Rev. 8:12).
42:1 Wisdom found no place on Earth where she could inhabit; her dwelling therefore is in heaven.
42:2 Wisdom went forth to dwell among the sons of men, but she found no place to live. Wisdom returned to her place, and seated herself in the midst of the angels. But Iniquity went forth after Wisdom's return, who unwillingly found a place to live everywhere, and resided among them (mankind), and was soaked up greedily by them, like rain in the desert, and dew on a thirsty land (Prov. 1:20-33).
43:1 I beheld another splendour, and the stars of heaven (Rev. 12:4). I observed that He called them all by their respective names, and that they heard. In a righteous Balance (ch. 60:11) I saw that He weighed out with their light the amplitude of their places, and the day of their existing, and their conversion. Splendour produced splendour; and their conversion was into the number of the angels, and of the faithful.
43:2 Then I inquired of the angel, who proceeded with me, and explained to me secret things; What their names were. He answered: The Lord of Spirits has shown thee a similitude of these. They are the names of the righteous who dwell upon Earth, and who believe in the name of the Lord of Spirits for ever and ever (Gen. 15:5-6; Dan. 12:3; Rev. 14:3).
44:1 Another thing also I saw respecting splendour; that it rises out of the stars, and becomes splendour; being incapable of forsaking them.
45:1 PARABLE THE SECOND, respecting those who deny the name of the habitation of the holy ones, and of the Lord of spirits (Heaven).
45:2 Heaven they shall not ascend to, nor shall they succeed on the Earth. This shall be the portion of sinners, who deny the name of the Lord of Spirits (hosts), and who are thus reserved for the Day of Punishment and of affliction.
45:3 In that day shall the Elect One (Messiah/Christ/Mahdi) sit upon the Throne of Glory; and shall choose their conditions and countless habitations (while their spirits within them - their Being shall be strengthened, when they behold My Elect One), shall choose them (habitations - John 14:2) for those who have fled for protection to My holy and glorious name.
45:4 In that day I will cause My Elect One (Isa. 42:1) to dwell in the midst of them; will change the face of heaven; will bless it, and illuminate it for ever (Rev. 21:1, 22-24).
45:5 I will also change the face of the Earth; will bless it; and cause those whom I have elected (chosen - Matt. 22:14) to dwell upon it. But those who have committed sin and inequity will not tread upon it; for I have seen them. My righteous ones will I satisfy with peace, placing them before Me; but the condemnation of sinners shall draw near, so that I may destroy them from the face of the Earth.
46:1 There I beheld the Ancient of Days, Whose head was like white wool (Rev. 1:14), and with Him another, whose countenance resembled that of man. His countenance was full of grace, like that of one of the holy angels. Then I inquired from one of the angels, who went with me, and who showed me every secret thing, concerning this Son of Man, who he was, whence he was, and why he accompanied the Ancient of Days (John 17:3; Dan. 7:9).
46:2 He answered and said to me: This is the Son of Man, to whom Righteousness belongs, with whom Righteousness has dwelt, and who will reveal all the treasures of that which is concealed (Matt. 13:44; Thom. 15:18; Rev. 10:7), for the Lord of Spirits has chosen him (Isa. 42:1); and his portion has surpassed all before the Lord of Spirits (Dan. 10:21) in everlasting uprightness.
46:3 The Son of Man, whom thou beholdest, shall raise up kings and the mighty from their thrones, and the powerful from their couches; shall loosen the reins of the powerful, and break in pieces the teeth of sinners (Rev. 12:5; 17:14).
46:4 He shall hurl kings from their thrones and their dominions; because they will not exalt and praise Him, nor humble themselves before Him, by Whom their kingdoms were granted to them (Ps. 72:11). The countenance likewise of the mighty shall he cast down filling them with confusion (Rev. 18:9-19). Darkness will be their habitation, and worms shall be their bed; nor from their beds shall they hope to be again raised, because they exalted not the name and Law of the Lord of Spirits (hosts).
46:5 They shall condemn the stars of heaven, shall lift up their hands against the Most High (Rev. 17:12-14), shall tread upon and inhabit the Earth, exhibiting all their works of iniquity, even their works of inequity. Their strength shall be in their riches, and their faith shall be in the gods that they have formed with their own hands (see Baruch - the Roll of Jeremiah). They shall deny the Lord of Spirits, and shall expel Him from their temples, in which they assemble (Rev. 3:17).
46:6 And with Him the faithful, who suffer in the Cause of the Lord of Spirits (Luke 21:12; Sura 2:218).
47:1 In that day the prayer of the holy and the righteous, and the blood of the righteous, shall ascend from the Earth into the presence of the Lord of Spirits.
47:2 In that day shall the holy ones assemble, who dwell above the heavens, and with united voice petition, supplicate, praise, laud, and bless the name of the Lord of Spirits, on account of the blood of the righteous which has been shed; that the prayer of the righteous may not be intermitted before the Lord of Spirits; that for them He would execute Judgement; and that His patience may not endure for ever (Rev. 6:10).
47:3 At that time I beheld the Ancient of Days, while He sat upon the Throne of His Glory, while the Book of Life was opened in His presence, and while all the powers which were from above in the heavens stood around and before Him (Rev. 20:12; Sura 83:18-21).
47:4 Then were the hearts of the holy people full of joy, because the number of righteousness was reached, the supplication of the holy people heard, and the blood of the righteous appreciated by the Lord of Spirits (Rev. 14:1; 2 Esdras 2:40).
48:1 In that place I beheld a fountain of righteousness, which never failed, encircled by many Springs of Wisdom. From these all the thirsty drank, and were filled with Wisdom, having their habitation with the righteous, the Elect, and the holy.
48:2 In that hour was this Son of Man invoked before the Lord of Spirits, and his name in the presence of the Ancient of Days.
48:3 Before the sun and the signs were created, before the stars of heaven were formed, his name was invoked in the presence of the Lord of Spirits. A support shall he be for the righteous and the holy to lean upon (Prov. 3:5; Mic. 3:11), without falling; and he shall be the Light of nations (Light of the world) (John 1:1-19; Heb. 1:2-3).
48:4 He shall be the hope of those whose hearts are troubled. All, who dwell on Earth, shall fall down and worship before him; shall bless and glorify him, and sing his praises to the Lord of Spirits.
48:5 Therefore the Elect and the Concealed One existed in His presence, before the world was created, and for ever (John 17:5; Thomas 8:7-9).
48:6 In His presence he existed, and has revealed to the holy people and to the righteous the Wisdom of the Lord of Spirits; for he has preserved the lot of the righteous, because they have hated and rejected this world of iniquity, and have detested all its works and ways, in the name of the Lord of Spirits (John 17:16).
48:7 For in His name shall they be preserved; and His Will shall be their Life (Matt. 6:10). In those days shall the kings of the Earth and the mighty men, who have gained the world by the work of their own hands, become humble in countenance.
48:8 For in the days of their anxiety and trouble their souls (Beings) shall not be saved; and they shall be in the hands of those whom I have chosen (Ps. 149:9).
48:9 I will cast them like hay into the fire, and like lead into the water. Thus shall they burn in the presence of the righteous, and sink in the presence of the holy; nor shall a tenth part of them be found (Rev. 20:15; 18:21).
48:10 But in the day of their trouble, rest shall be on Earth.
48:11 In his presence shall they fall, and not be raised up again; nor shall there be any one to take them out of His hands, and to lift them up; for they have denied the Lord of spirits, and His Messiah/Christ/Mahdi. The name of the Lord of Spirits shall be blessed.
PART 2 - 1 Wisdom is poured forth like water, and glory fails not before Him for ever and ever (Wis. 1:1), for potent is He in all the secrets of righteousness (Prov. 3:13-35).
2 But iniquity passes away like a shadow, and possesses not a fixed station: for the Elect One stands before the Lord of spirits (as Mediator/Advocate - 1 Tim. 2:5); and his glory is for ever and ever; and His power from generation to generation (Ps. 1).
3 With Him dwells the spirit of intellectual wisdom, the spirit of instruction and of power, and the spirit of those who sleep in righteousness; He shall judge secret things.
4 Nor shall any be able to utter a single word before Him (Sura 77:35); for the Elect One is in the presence of the Lord of Spirits, according to his own pleasure.
49:1 In those days the holy people and the chosen shall undergo a change. The light of day shall rest upon them (Rev. 21:25); and the splendour and glory of the holy ones shall be changed (1 Cor. 15:51).
49:2 In the Day of Trouble evil shall be heaped up upon sinners; but the righteous shall triumph in the name of the Lord of Spirits.
49:3 Others shall be made to see, that they must repent, and forsake the work of their hands; and that glory awaits them not in the presence of the Lord of spirits; yet that by his name (Rev. 3:12) they may be saved. The Lord of spirits will have compassion on them; for great is His mercy; and righteous is His Judgement, and in the presence of His glory; nor in His Judgement shall iniquity stand. He who repents not before Him shall perish (Rev. 20:15).
49:4 Henceforward I will not have mercy on them, saith the Lord of spirits (Matt. 25:10-12).
50:1 In those days shall the earth deliver up from her womb, and hell (the Earth) deliver up from hers, that which it has received; and destruction shall repay that which it owes (Rev. 20:13).
50:2 He shall select the righteous and holy from among them; for the day of their salvation has arrived.
50:3 And in those days shall the Elect One sit upon his throne ( [2 kings 11:13-14] the Stone or Pillar of Destiny - the Throne of David - the Throne of Israel - the British Throne), while every secret of intellectual wisdom shall proceed from his mouth; for the Lord of Spirits has gifted and glorified him (Dan. 10:21; Luke 1:32-33).
50:4 In those days the mountains shall skip like rams, and the hills shall leap like young lambs satisfied with milk; and all the righteous shall become angels in heaven [again] (Ps. 114:4).
50:5 Their countenance shall be bright with joy; for in those days shall the Elect One be exalted. The Earth shall rejoice; the righteous shall inhabit it, and the Elect go and walk upon it (Matt. 5:5; Rev. 21:26-27).
51:1 After that period, in the place where I had seen every secret sight, I was snatched (beamed) up in a whirlwind (2 kings 2:11), and carried off westwards.
51:2 There my eyes beheld the secrets of heaven, and all which existed on Earth; a mountain of iron, a mountain of copper, a mountain of silver, a mountain of gold, a mountain of fluid metal, and a mountain of lead.
51:3 And I inquired from the angel who went with me, saying: What are these things, which in secret I behold?
51:4 He said: All these things which thou beholdest shall be for the dominion of the Messiah/Christ/Mahdi (Sura 43:61), that he may command, and be powerful upon Earth (for a 1000 years - Rev. 20:4 - the 7th or Sabbath Millennium - the 3rd Millennium A.D.).
51:5 And the angel of peace answered me, saying: Wait but a short time, and thou shalt see, and every secret thing shall be revealed to thee, which the Lord of spirits has decreed. Those mountains which thou hast seen, the mountain of iron, the mountain of copper, the mountain of silver, the mountain of gold, the mountain of fluid metal, and the mountain of lead, all these in the presence of the Elect One shall be like a honeycomb before the fire, and like water descending from above upon these mountains; and shall become debilitated before his feet (Dan. 2:31-45; Rev. 18:11-14).
51:6 In those days they shall not be saved by gold and by silver (Eze. 7:19).
51:7 Nor shall they have it in their power to secure themselves, and to fly.
51:8 There shall be neither iron for war, nor a coat of mail for the breast.
51:9 Copper shall be useless; useless also that which neither rusts nor consumes away; and lead shall not be coveted.
51:10 All these things shall be rejected, and perish from off the Earth, when the Elect One (Isa. 42:1, 11 & 33:15-17) shall appear in representation of the Lord of Spirits.
52:1 There my eyes beheld a deep valley; and wide was its entrance (Matt. 7:13).
52:2 All who dwell on land, on the sea, and in islands, shall bring to it gifts, presents, and offerings; yet that deep valley shall not be full. Their hands shall commit iniquity. Whatsoever they produce by labour the sinners shall devour with crime. But they shall perish from before the face of the Lord of spirits, and from the face of His Earth. They shall stand (His Judgements), and not fail for ever and ever.
52:3 I beheld the angels of punishment, who were dwelling there, and preparing every instrument of Satan.
52:4 Then I inquired from the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, for whom those instruments were being prepared.
52:5 He said: These they are preparing for the kings and powerful ones of the Earth (Sura 3:64), that by this they may perish (ch. 68:16).
52:6 After which the righteous and chosen house of His Congregation shall appear, thenceforward unchangeable, in the name of the Lord of Spirits.
52:7 Nor shall those "mountains" exist in His presence, as the earth and the hills, as the fountains of water exist. And the righteous shall be relieved from the vexation of sinners.
53:1 Then I looked and turned myself to another part of the Earth, where I beheld a deep valley burning with fire.
53:2 To this valley they brought monarchs and the mighty.
53:3 And there my eyes beheld the instruments which they were making, fetters of iron in which there was not weight.
53:4 Then I inquired of the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, saying: For whom are these fetters and instruments prepared? (Jude 6).
53:5 He replied: These are prepared for the host of Azazyel, that they may be delivered over and adjudged to the lowest condemnation; and that these angels may be overwhelmed with hurled stones, as the Lord of spirits has commanded (ch. 10:7; Sura 2:24).
53:6 Michael and Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel shall be strengthened in that day (Dan. 12:1), and shall then cast them into a furnace of blazing fire, that the Lord of spirits may be avenged of them for their crimes; because they became ministers of satan (Lucifer/Iblis), and seduced (Sura 7:27) those who dwell upon Earth.
53:7 In those days shall punishment go forth from the Lord of spirits; and the receptacles of water which are above the heavens shall be opened, and the fountains likewise, which are under the heavens and under the earth.
53:8 All the waters, which are in the heavens above them, shall be mixed together.
53:9 The water which is above heaven shall be the male;
53:10 And the water which is under the earth shall be the female; and all shall be destroyed who dwell upon Earth, and who dwell under the extremities of heaven.
53:11 By these means shall they understand the iniquity which they have committed on Earth; and by these means shall they perish (Gen. 7:17-24).
54:1 Afterwards the Ancient of Days repented, and said: In vain have I destroyed all that lives on the Earth.
54:2 And He swore by His great name saying: Henceforwards I will not act thus towards all those who dwell upon Earth (Gen. 8:21; 9:12-16).
54:3 But I will place a Sign in the heavens (the Rainbow); and it shall be a faithful witness between me and them for ever, as long as the days of heaven and earth last upon the Earth (Wis. 44:18).
54:4 Afterwards, according to this, My decree (Sura 52:2), when I shall be disposed to seize them beforehand, by means of angels, in the Day of Affliction and trouble, My wrath and My punishment shall remain upon them, My punishment and My wrath, saith God the Lord of spirits (Ps. 78:49).
54:5 O ye kings, O ye mighty, who inhabit the world, you shall behold My Elect One (Isa. 42:1), sitting upon The Throne of My Glory. And he shall judge Azazyel, all his associates, and all his host, in the name of the Lord of Spirits.
54:6 There likewise I beheld hosts of angels who were moving in punishment, confined in a network of iron and brass. Then I inquired from the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, to whom those under confinement were going?
54:7 He said: To each of their chosen and their beloved, that they may be cast into the mountains and deep recesses of the valley.
54:8 And that valley shall be filled with their chosen and beloved; the days of whose life shall be consumed, but the days of their error shall be innumerable.
54:9 Then shall the princes combine together, and conspire. The chiefs of the East (Rev. 16:12), among the Parthians and Medes (Persia - Eze. 38:5), shall remove kings, in whom a spirit of distress shall enter. They shall hurl them from their thrones, springing as lions from their dens, and like famished wolves into the midst of the flock (Rev. 16:16).
54:10 They shall go up, and tread upon the land of the Elect. The land of the Elect shall be before them. The threshing-floor, the path, and the City of My righteous people (New Jerusalem - Rev. 21:2) shall impede the progress of their horses (Zech. 12:4). They shall rise up to destroy each other; their right hand shall be strengthened; nor shall a man acknowledge his friend or his brother;
54:11 Nor the son his father and mother; until the number of the dead bodies shall be completed (Eze. 39:12), by their death and punishment. Neither shall this take place without cause.
54:12 In those days shall the mouth of hell-fire be opened, into which they shall be immersed; hell-fire shall destroy and swallow up sinners from the face of the Elect.
55:1 After this I beheld another army of chariots, with men riding in them (Zech. 6:1-13).
55:2 And they came upon the wind from the East, from the West, and from the midst of the day (overhead).
55:3 The sound of the noise of their chariots was heard.
55:4 And when that shaking took place, the holy ones out of heaven perceived it; the Pillar of the Earth shook from its foundation; and the sound was heard from the extremities of the Earth unto the extremities of heaven at the same time.
55:5 Then they all fell down, and worshipped the Lord of Spirits (Ps. 86:9; Isa. 33:16-17; Sura 52).
55:6 This is the end of the second parable.
56:1 PARABLE THE THIRD, I now began to utter, concerning the holy people and the Elect.
56:2 Blessed are ye, O holy people and Elect, for glorious is your lot.
56:3 The holy people shall exist in the Light of the Sun (Mal. 4:2), and the Elect in the Light of Everlasting Life, the days of whose life shall never terminate; nor shall the days of the holy people, who seek for Light, and obtain righteousness with the Lord of spirits (Php. 3:14; Rom. 9:23; 1 Tim. 5:16), be numbered.
56:4 Peace be to the holy people with the Lord of the world.
56:5 Henceforward shall the holy people be told to seek in heaven the secrets of righteousness (Matt. 6:6; Sura 7:55), the portion of faith; for like the sun has it arisen upon the Earth (Matt. 24:27), while darkness has passed away. There shall be Light which cannot be calculated, nor shall they enter upon the enumeration of time (Rev. 10:6); for "Darkness" shall be previously destroyed, and Light shall increase before the Lord of spirits; before the Lord of spirits shall the Light of uprightness increase for ever (Rev. 22:4-5).
57:1 In those days my eyes beheld the secrets of the lightnings and the splendours, and the judgement belonging to them.
57:2 They lighten for a blessing and a curse, according to the Will of the Lord of Spirits.
57:3 And there I saw the secrets of the thunder; when it is grinding above in heaven, and its sound is heard.
57:4 The habitations of the Earth were also shown to me. The sound of the thunder is for peace and for blessing, as well as for a curse, according to the Word of the Lord of Spirits (Job 28:23-27).
57:5 Afterwards every secret of the splendours and of the lightnings was seen by me. For blessing and for fertility they lighten.
58:1 Prince Michael the Archangel (Dan. 10:21; ch. 20:5) condemned and then decreed that The Judgement shall fall on CHURCH and STATE (Eze. 13:1-9; Matt. 23; Rev. 17:14; 19:2; Sura 3:64).
59:1 In the five hundredth year, and in the seventh month, on the fourteenth day of the month, of the lifetime of Enoch, in that parable, I saw that the heaven of heavens shook; that it shook violently; and that the powers of the Most High, and the angels, thousands of thousands, and myriads of myriads, were shaken with great shaking. And when I looked, the Ancient of Days was sitting on the Throne of His Glory, while the angels and holy ones were standing around Him. A great trembling came upon me, and terror seized me. My loins were bowed down and loosened; my control was dissolved; and I fell upon my face. Prince Michael, a holy angel, one of the holy ones, was sent and he raised me up.
59:2 And when he raised me, my spirit returned; for I was incapable of enduring this vision of violence, its shaking and the concussion of heaven (Heb. 12:26-29).
59:3 Then holy Michael said to me: Why art thou disturbed at this vision?
59:4 Hitherto has existed the Period of Mercy (6 Millennia); and He has been merciful and long-suffering towards all who dwell upon the Earth (Ps. 86:15; Isa. 42:14; 2 Pet. 3:9).
59:5 But when the time shall come, then shall the power, the punishment, and the Judgement take place, that the Lord of Spirits (The Great White Spirit) has prepared for those who prostrate themselves to The Judgement of Righteousness, for those who dispute that Judgement, and for those who take His name in vain.
59:6 That day has been prepared for the Elect as a day of Covenant; and for sinners as a day of inquisition.
59:7 In that day shall be distributed for food two tigers (redistribution of their wealth); a female tiger (Rev. 17:1), whose name is Levi-athan (church) dwelling in the depths of the "sea" (Ps. 65:7), above the springs of "waters" (Rev. 17:15);
59:8 And a male (Rev. 17:2), whose name is Behemoth (state) which possesses, moving on his breast, the invisible waste.
59:9 His (Michael's) title was Dendayen (Judge)(John 5:22) in the East of The Garden (Gen. 3:24), where the Elect and the righteous dwell; where he received it from my ancestor, who was man, from Adam the first of men, whom the Lord of Spirits made (1 Cor. 15:45).
59:10 Then I asked another angel to show me the power of those tigers, how they became separated on the same day, one being in the depths of the "sea", and one being in the dry desert (Rev. 11:6).
59:11 And he said: Thou, son of man, art here desirous of understanding secret things (Amos 3:7).
59:12 Then another angel, who proceeded with me, spoke to me;
59:13 And showed me the first and last secrets in heaven above, and in the depths of the Earth.
59:14 In the extremities of heaven, and in the foundations of it, and the receptacle of the winds.
59:15 He showed me how their spirits were divided; how they were balanced; and how both the springs and the winds were numbered according to the force of their spirit.
59:16 He showed me the power of the moon's light, that its power is a just one; as well as the divisions of the stars, according to their respective names (see ch. 43);
59:17 That every division is divided; the thunderings in each of their falls; and that at every division which takes place, the lightning flashes;
59:18 That their host immediately obey; and that a cessation takes place during thunder in the continuance of its sound. Nor are the thunder and the lightning separated; neither do both of them move with one spirit; yet they are not separated.
59:19 For when the lightning lightens, and thunder sounds, and the spirit at a proper period pauses, making an equal division between them; for the receptacle of their times is like sand is (ch. 100:6). Each of them at a proper season is restrained with a bridle; and turned by the power of the spirit, which thus propels them according to the spacious extent of the Earth.
59:20 The spirit likewise of the sea is potent and strong; and as a strong power turns back with a bridle, so it is driven forwards, and scattered against the mountains of the Earth. The spirit of the frost has its angel; in the spirit of hail there is a righteous angel; the spirit of snow ceases in its strength, and a solitary spirit is in it, which ascends from it like vapour, and is called refrigeration (Job 38:22-23).
59:21 The spirit also of mist dwells with them in their receptacle; but it has a receptacle to itself; for its progress is in splendour,
59:22 In light, and in darkness, in Winter and in Summer. Its receptacle is bright, and an angel is in it.
59:23 The spirit of dew has its abode in the extremities of heaven, in connection with the receptacle of rain; and its progress is in Winter and in Summer. The cloud produced by it, and the cloud of the mist, become united; one gives to the other; and when the spirit of rain is in motion from its receptacle, angels come, and opening its receptacle bring it forth.
59:24 When likewise it is sprinkled over all the earth, it forms an union with every kind of water on the ground; for the waters remain on the ground, because they afford nourishment to the earth from The Most High, Who is in heaven.
59:25 Upon this account therefore there is a measure in the rain, which the angels receive.
59:26 These things I saw; all of them, even to the Garden of the Righteous (Sura 2:25).
59:27 And the angel of peace, who was with me, said: These two monsters are by the power of God prepared to become food, that their punishment from God may not be in vain (see 59:7-8).
59:28 Then shall children be slain with their mothers, and sons with their fathers (Joel 2:1-3).
59:29 And when the punishment from the Lord of spirits shall continue, upon them (the two monsters - church and state) shall it continue, that the punishment of the Lord of Spirits may not take place in vain (Rev. 17:14). After that, Judgement shall exist with mercy and long-suffering (Rom. 2:4).
60:1 In those days I beheld long ropes given to those angels; who took to their wings and fled, advancing towards the North.
60:2 And I inquired of the angel, saying: Why have they taken those long ropes, and gone forth? He said: They are gone forth to measure.
60:3 The angel, who proceeded with me, said: These are the measures of the righteous; and cords (of discipline and affection) shall the righteous bring, that they may lean upon the name of the Lord of Spirits for ever and ever.
60:4 The Elect shall begin to dwell with the Elect (Thom. 5:1; 1 Thess. 4:17).
60:5 And these are the measures which shall be given to faith, and which shall strengthen the word of the righteous.
60:6 These measures shall reveal all the secrets in the depth of the Earth.
60:7 And it shall be, that those who have been destroyed in the desert, and who have been devoured by the fish of the sea, and by wild beasts, shall return (be reincarnated), and lean upon the Day of the Elect One; for none shall perish in the presence of the Lord of spirits, nor shall any be capable of perishing (Rev. 20:13).
60:8 Then they received the Commandment, all who were in the heavens above; to whom a combined power, voice, and splendour, like fire, were given.
60:9 And first, with their voice, they blessed Him, they exalted Him, they glorified Him with wisdom, and ascribed to Him wisdom with the Word, and with the Breath of Life.
60:10 Then the Lord of Spirits seated the Elect One (Isa. 42:1) upon the throne of his glory (the Throne of David - the Throne of Israel - the British Throne) (Eze. 21:26-27);
60:11 Who shall judge (Isa. 42:1-4) all the works of the holy, and in a Balance (Suras 7:8 & 42:17 & 6:154-157 & 57:25) shall he weigh their actions. And when He shall lift up His countenance to judge their secret ways by The Word (the Messiah/Christ/Mahdi - John 1:14; Sura 43:61) [acting] in the name of the Lord of Spirits (Matt. 28:18), and their progress in The Way of the Righteous Judgement of God Most High (John 5:22);
60:12 They shall all speak with united voice; and bless, glorify, exalt, and praise, the name of the Lord of Spirits (Rev. 15:3-4).
60:13 He shall call to every power of the heaven, to all the holy above and to the power of God. The Cherubim, the Seraphim (exalted ones), and the Ophanin, all the angels of power, and all the angels of the Lord, namely those of the Elect One, and of the other Power, who was upon Earth over the water on that day,
60:14 Shall raise their united voice, shall bless, glorify, praise, and exalt with the spirit of Faith, with the spirit of Wisdom and Patience, with the spirit of Mercy, with the spirit of Judgement and Peace, and with the spirit of Compassion, all shall say with united voice: Blessed is He; and the name of the Lord of Spirits shall be blessed for ever and for ever; all, who sleep not (spirits), shall bless it in heaven above (Rev. 19).
60:15 All the holy in heaven shall bless it; all the Elect who dwell in the Garden of Life; and every Spirit of Light (Luminous Being - Thomas 8:8), who is capable of blessing, glorifying, exalting, and praising Thy holy name; and all of flesh, more than the powers of heaven, shall glorify and bless Thy name for ever and ever (whilst the Beings are wearing flesh [human+Beings] during the Sabbath Millennium).
60:16 For great is the mercy of the Lord of spirits; long-suffering is He; and all His words, all His power, great, as are the things which He has done, has he (the Elect One) revealed to the holy people and to the Elect, in the name of the Lord of Spirits (Amos 3:7; Ps. 25:14).
61:1 Thus the Lord commanded the kings, the princes, the exalted, and those who dwell on Earth, saying: Open your eyes, and lift up your horns, if you are capable of comprehending the Elect One.
61:2 The Lord of spirits sat upon the Throne of His Glory,
61:3 And the Spirit of Righteousness was poured out over him (the Elect One - Isa. 42:1).
61:4 The word of his mouth shall destroy all the sinners and all the unGodly, who shall perish at his presence (2 Esd. 13:38; Rev. 19:15-21).
61:5 In that day shall all the kings, the princes, the exalted, and those who possess the Earth, stand up, behold, and perceive, that he is sitting on the throne of his glory; that before him the holy people shall be judged in righteousness;
61:6 And that nothing which shall be spoken before him, shall be spoken in vain.
61:7 Trouble shall come upon them, as upon a woman in travail (Rev. 12:2, 5), whose labour is severe, when her child comes to the mouth of the womb, and she finds it difficult to bring forth (Jer. 13:21).
61:8 One portion of them shall look upon another. They shall be astonished, and shall humble their countenance (Matt. 23:12):
61:9 And trouble shall seize them, when they shall behold this Son of The Woman (Rev. 12:1, 2, 5, 6 - Britannia) sitting upon the throne of his glory (Eze. 21:27).
61:10 Then shall the kings, the princes, and all who possess (and think they own) the Earth, glorify Him Who has dominion over all things; and him who was concealed (and does own it), for from eternity the Son of Man was concealed, whom the Most High preserved in the presence of His power (Ps. 110:1) and revealed to the Elect (Heb. 1:6-10).
61:11 He shall show the congregation of the holy people, and of the Elect; and all the Elect shall stand before him in that day (Isa. 65:21-25).
61:12 All the kings, the princes, the exalted, and those who rule over the Earth, shall fall down on their faces before him, and shall worship Him (Ps. 72:11).
61:13 They shall fix their hopes on this Son of Man, shall pray to Him, and petition him for mercy.
61:14 Then shall the Lord of spirits hasten to expel them from His presence. Their faces shall be full of confusion, and darkness shall be added to their faces. The angels shall take them to punishment, that vengeance may be inflicted on those who have oppressed His (adopted) children (Gal. 4:5) and His Elect. And they shall become an example to the holy people and to His Elect. Through them shall these be made joyful; for the anger of the Lord of spirits shall rest upon them (Rev. 14:18-20).
61:15 Then the sword of the Lord of spirits shall be drunk from them (Deut. 32:35-43; Jer. 46:10); but the holy and Elect people shall be safe in that day; nor the face of the sinners and the unGodly shall they thence-forwards behold.
61:16 The Lord of Spirits shall remain over them;
61:17 And with this Son of Man shall they dwell, eat, lie down, and rise up, for ever and ever (Rev. 7:16-17).
61:18 The holy people and the Elect have arisen from the earth, have left off to depress their countenances, and have been clothed with the Garment of Life (Matt. 22:11-14). That Garment of Life is with the Lord of spirits, in Whose presence your garment shall not wax old (Deut. 29:5), nor shall your glory diminish (Isa. 53:12).
62:1 In those days the kings who possess the Earth shall be punished by the angels of His punishment (Ps. 78:49), wheresoever they shall be delivered up, that he may give rest for a short period; and that they may fall down and worship before the Lord of spirits, confessing their sins before Him.
62:2 They shall bless and glorify the Lord of spirits, saying: Blessed is the Lord of spirits, the Lord of kings, the Lord of princes, the Lord of the rich, the Lord of glory, and the Lord of Wisdom.
62:3 He shall enlighten every secret thing (Luke 8:17).
62:4 Thy power is from generation to generation; and Thy glory for ever and ever.
62:5 Deep are all Thy secrets and numberless; and Thy righteousness cannot be computed (Matt. 13:35).
62:6 Now we know, that we should glorify and bless the Lord of kings, Him Who is King over all things.
62:7 They shall also say: Who has granted us rest to glorify, laud, bless, and confess in the presence of His glory?
62:8 And now small is the rest we desire; but we do not find it; we rejected and do not possess it. Light has passed away from before us; and darkness has covered our thrones for ever.
62:9 For we have not confessed before Him; we have not glorified the name of the Lord of kings; we have not glorified the Lord in all His works and Laws; but we have trusted in the sceptre of our own laws, dominion and of our own glory.
62:10 In the day of our suffering and of our trouble He will not save us, neither shall we find rest. We confess that our Lord is faithful in all His works, in all His Judgements, and in His righteousness.
62:11 In His Judgements He pays no respect, because of our evil deeds (Acts 10:34).
62:12 All our sins are truly without number.
62:13 Then shall they say to themselves: Our souls are saturated with the instruments of crime;
62:14 But that prevents us not from descending to the flaming womb of hell-fire.
62:15 Afterwards, their countenances shall be filled with darkness and confusion before the Son of Man; from whose presence they shall be expelled, and before whom the sword shall remain to expel them.
62:16 Thus saith the Lord of spirits: This is the Decree and the Judgement against the princes, the kings, the exalted, and those who possess the Earth, in the presence of the Lord of Spirits.
63:1 I saw also other countenances in that secret place: I heard the voice of an angel, saying: These are the angels who have descended from heaven to Earth, and have revealed secrets to the sons of men, and have seduced the sons of men to the committing of sin (Gen. 6:1-5).
64:1 In those days Noah saw that the Earth became evilly inclined, and that destruction approached.
64:2 Then he lifted up his feet, and went to the ends of the Earth, to the dwelling of his great grandfather, Enoch.
64:3 And Noah cried with a bitter voice: Hear me; hear me; hear me: three times. And he said: Tell me what is happening upon Earth; for the Earth labours, and is violently shaken. Surely I shall perish with it.
64:4 After this there was a great perturbation on Earth, and a voice was heard from heaven. I fell down on my face, when my great grandfather Enoch came and stood by me.
64:5 He said to me: Why hast thou cried out to me with a bitter cry and lamentation?
64:6 A Commandment has gone forth from the Lord against those who dwell on the Earth, that their end may be; for they know every secret of the angels, every oppressive and secret power of the satans (fallen angels - opposers of God) and every power of those who commit sorcery, as well as of those who make molten images in the whole Earth.
64:7 They know how silver is produced from the dust of the Earth, and how on the Earth the metallic drop exists; for lead and tin are not produced from earth as the primary source of their production.
64:8 There is an angel behind it, and that angel (Lucifer/Iblis - Sura 7:16-18) struggles to prevail.
64:9 Afterwards my great grandfather Enoch grasped me with his hand, raising me up, and saying to me: Go, for I have asked the Lord of Spirits respecting this perturbation of the Earth; Who replied: On account of their disrespect have their innumerable judgements been consummated before Me. Respecting the moons have they inquired, and they have known that the Earth will perish with those who dwell upon it, and that to these there will be no place of refuge for ever.
64:10 They have discovered secrets, and they are those who have been judged; but not thou, my son. The Lord of spirits knows that thou art pure and righteous, free from the reproach of discovering secrets (Wis. 44:17).
64:11 He, the Holy One, will establish thy name (Matt. 24:37-39) in the midst of the holy people, and preserve thee from those who dwell upon the Earth (2 Pet. 2:4-5). He will establish thy seed in righteousness, for kings and for great glory; and from thy seed shall go forth a spring of righteousness and holy men without number for ever.
65:1 After this he showed me the angels of punishment, who were prepared to come, and to open all the power of water under the Earth
65:2 That they may be for Judgement, and for the destruction of all those who remain and dwell upon the Earth.
65:3 And the Lord of spirits commanded the angels who went forth, not to take up the men and preserve them.
65:4 For those angels presided over all the mighty waters. Then I went out from the presence of Enoch.
66:1 In those days the Word of God was with me, and said: Noah, behold, thy portion has ascended up to Me, a lot void of fault, a lot of love, and upright (Gen. 6:7-8).
66:2 Now then shall the angels labour at the trees; but when they proceed to this, I will put my hand upon it, and preserve it (Noah's ark was preserved).
66:3 The seed of life shall be from it, and a change shall enter, that the dry land may not be left empty. I will establish thy seed before Me for all time, and the seed of those who dwell with thee, on the surface of the Earth. It shall be blessed and multiplied in the presence of the Earth, in the name of the Lord (Heb. 11:7).
66:4 And they shall confine those angels who showed disrespect. In that burning valley it is, that they shall be confined, which at first my great grandfather Enoch showed me in the West, where there were mountains of gold and silver, of iron, of fluid metal, and of tin.
66:5 I beheld that valley in which there was great distress, and where the waters were troubled.
66:6 And when all this was effected, from the fluid mass of fire, and the distress which troubled them in that place, there arose a strong smell of brimstone (sulphur), which became mixed with the waters; and the valley of the angels, who had been guilty of seduction, burned underneath its soil.
66:7 Through that valley also rivers of fire went, to which those angels shall be condemned, who seduced the inhabitants of the Earth.
66:8 And in those days shall these waters be to kings, to princes, to the exalted and to the inhabitants of the Earth, for the healing of the Soul (Being) and body (human), and for the judgement of the spirit.
66:9 Their spirits shall be full of SPORT, that they may be judged for their bodies (1 Tim. 3:8); because they have denied the Lord of spirits, and although they perceive their condemnation day by day, they believe not in His name (Rev. 20:15).
66:10 And as the swelling of their bodies (and ego) shall be great, so shall their spirits undergo a change for ever.
66:11 For no word which is uttered before the Lord of spirits shall be in vain (Isa. 34:16).
66:12 Judgement has come upon them, because they trusted in the sport of their bodies, and denied the Lord of spirits (by so doing - 1 Tim. 3:8).
66:13 In those days shall its waters be changed; for when the angels (jinns - Beings - souls) shall be judged, then shall the heat of those springs of water experience an alteration.
66:14 And when the angels shall ascend, the water of the springs shall again undergo a change, and be frozen. Then I heard holy Michael answering and saying: This Judgement, with which the angels (Beings - souls) shall be judged, shall bear testimony against the kings, the princes, and those who possess (and think they own) the Earth.
66:15 For these waters of judgement shall be for their healing, and for the death of their bodies (Flood and Watery-Baptism). But they shall not perceive and believe that the waters will be changed, and become a fire (Luke 3:16), which shall blaze forever (Fiery-Baptism or The Fire - the choice is yours).
67:1 After this he (angel Michael - Dan. 10:21) gave me the Signs of all secret things in the Book of my great grandfather Enoch, and in the (three) parables which had been given to him (by God); inserting them for me (Noah), among the words of the Book and the parables (ch. 38:1 - ch. 68:42).
67:2 At that time Prince Michael answered and said to Raphael; The power of the spirit hurries me away, and moves me. The severity of the Judgement, of the private judgement of the angels (souls), who is capable of beholding; the endurance of that severe judgement which has taken place and been made permanent; and not be melted in the presence of it (The Judgement)? Again angel Michael answered and said to angel Raphael: Who is there whose heart is not softened by it, and whose reins are not troubled at this Judgement?
67:3 Judgement has gone forth against them by those who have thus dragged them away; and that was, when they stood in the presence of the Lord of spirits.
67:4 In like manner also angel Rakael said to Raphael: They shall not be before the eye of the Lord; since the Lord of spirits has been offended by them; for as the Lord they have conducted themselves. Therefore He will bring upon them a private judgement for ever and ever.
67:5 For neither shall angel nor man receive a portion of it; but they alone shall receive their own private judgement for ever and ever.
68:1 After this judgement they shall be astonished and irritated; for it shall be exhibited to the inhabitants of the Earth.
68:2 Behold the names of those [fallen] angels. These are their names. The first of them is Samyaza; the second, Arstikapha; the third, Armen; the fourth, Kakabael; the fifth, Turel; the sixth, Rumyel; the seventh, Danyal; the eighth, Kael; the ninth, Barakel; the tenth, Azazyel; the eleventh, Armers; the twelfth, Bataryal; the thirteenth, Basasael; the fourteenth, Ananel; the fifteenth, Turyal; the sixteenth, Simapiseel; the seventeenth, Yetarel; the eighteenth, Turmael; the nineteenth, Tarel; the twentieth, Rumel; the twenty-first, Arazyal.
68:3 These are the chiefs of their angels, and the names of the leaders of their hundreds, and the leaders of their fifties, and the leaders of their tens.
68:4 The name of the first is Yekun: he it was who seduced all the sons of the holy angels; and causing them to descend on Earth, led astray the offspring of men.
68:5 The name of the second is Kesabel, who pointed out evil counsel to the sons of the holy angels, and induced them to corrupt their bodies by generating with mankind.
68:6 The name of the third is Gadrel, he discovered every stroke of death to the children of men.
68:7 He seduced woman; and discovered to the children of men the instruments of death, the coat of mail, the shield, and the sword for slaughter; every instrument of death to the children of men.
68:8 From his hand were these things derived to them who dwell upon Earth, from that period for ever.
68:9 The name of the fourth is Penemue: he discovered to the children of men bitterness and sweetness;
68:10 And pointed out to them every secret of their (false) wisdom.
68:11 He taught men to understand writing, and the use of ink and paper.
68:12 Therefore numerous have been those who have gone astray from every period of the world, even to this day (ch. 96:24).
68:13 For men were not born for this, thus to confirm their faith with pen and ink (except His Prophets whom He commanded to write His holy word);
68:14 Since they (men) were only created, so that, like the angels of heaven, they might remain righteous and pure.
68:15 Then death, which destroys every thing, would not have affected them;
68:16 But by this, THEIR KNOWLEDGE (science - 1 Tim. 5:20), THEY PERISH, and by this also its power consumes them.
68:17 The name of the fifth is Kasyade: he discovered to the children of men every wicked stroke of evil spirits and of demons:
68:18 The stroke against the embryo in the womb, to diminish it, the stroke against the spirit by the bite of the serpent (Satan - Lucifer), and the stroke which is given in the midday by the offspring of the serpent (2 Thess. 2:3), the name of which is Tabaet/Thebeth (Yuletide - Rev. 2:6, 15 - St. Nicholas - Santa Claus).
68:19 This is the number of the Kesbel; the principal part of the oath which the Most High, dwelling in glory, revealed to the holy ones.
68:20 Its name is Beka. He spoke to holy Michael (Dan. 10:21) to discover them the secret name, that they might understand that secret name, and thus remember the oath; and that those who pointed out every secret thing to the children of men might tremble at that name and oath.
68:21 This is the power of that oath (the Oath of Akae); for powerful it is, and strong.
68:22 And He established this "Oath of Akae" by the hands of the holy Michael (Rev. 12:7; Sura 2:98)
68:23 These are the secrets of this oath, and by it were confirmed.
68:24 Heaven was suspended by it before the world was made, for ever (John 1:3, 10).
68:25 By it has the Earth been founded upon the flood; while from the concealed parts of the hill the moving waters spring forth from the Creation to the End of the World (2 Esdras 6:24).
68:26 By this oath the sea has been formed, and the foundation of it.
68:27 During this period of its fury He has established the sand against it, which continues unchanged for ever and by this oath the abyss has been made strong; nor is it removable from its station for ever and ever.
68:28 By this oath the sun and moon complete their progress, never swerving from the command given to them for ever and ever.
68:29 By this oath the stars complete their progress;
68:30 And when their names are called, they return an answer, for ever and ever (Ps. 147:4)
68:31 Thus in the heavens take place the blowings of the winds: all of them have breathings, and effect a complete combination of breathings (2 Esdras 5:5).
68:32 There the treasures of thunder are kept, and the splendour of the lightning.
68:33 There are kept the treasures of hail and of frost, the treasures of snow, the treasures of rain and of dew (Job 38:22).
68:34 All these confess and laud before the Lord of Spirits.
68:35 They glorify with all their power of praise; and He sustains them in all that act of thanksgiving, while they laud, glorify, and exalt the name of the Lord of Spirits for ever.
68:36 And with them He establishes this oath (of Akae), by which they and their paths are preserved; nor does their progress perish.
68:37 Great was their joy.
68:38 They blessed, glorified, and exalted, because the name of the Son of Man was revealed to them (Matt. 8:26-27; Ps. 68:4; Rev. 2:17; 3:12).
68:39 He sat upon the Throne of His Glory; and the principal part of the Judgement was assigned to him, the Son of Man (the Messiah/Christ/Mahdi). Sinners shall disappear and perish from the face of the Earth, while those who seduced them shall be bound with chains for ever (2 Pet. 2:4).
68:40 According to their degree of corruption shall they be imprisoned, and all their works shall disappear from the face of the Earth; nor henceforward shall there be any to corrupt; for the Son of Man has been seen sitting on the throne of his glory (the Stone or Pillar of Destiny - the Throne of David - the Throne of Israel/Jacob - the British Throne)(Eze. 21:27; Rev. 5:13).
68:41 Every thing wicked shall disappear, and depart from before his face; and the word of the Son of Man shall become powerful in the presence of the Lord of Spirits.
68:42 This is the end of the third parable of Enoch.
69:1 After this, the name of him living with Him, of this Son of Man, living with the Lord of Spirits, was exalted by the inhabitants of the Earth (Ps. 86:9).
69:2 It was exalted in the Chariots of the Spirit (2 kings 2:11); and the name went forth in the midst of them.
69:3 From that time I was not drawn in the midst of them; but He seated me between two spirits, between the North and the West, where the angels received their ropes, to measure me a place for the Elect and the righteous.
69:4 There I beheld the fathers of the first men, and the holy people, who dwell in that place for ever.
70:1 Afterwards my spirit was concealed, ascending into the heavens. I beheld the sons of the holy angels treading on flaming fire, whose garments and robes were white, and whose countenances were transparent as crystal.
70:2 I saw two rivers of fire glittering like the hyacinth.
70:3 Then I fell on my face before the Lord of Spirits.
70:4 And Michael, chief of the archangels, took me by my right hand, raised me up, and brought me out to where was every secret of mercy and secret of righteousness.
70:5 He showed me all the hidden things of the extremities of heaven, all the receptacles of the stars, and the splendours of all, from where they went forth before the face of the holy.
70:6 And he concealed the spirit of Enoch in the heaven of heavens.
70:7 There I beheld, in the midst of that light, that in it there was that which was built with stones of ice;
70:8 And, in the midst of these stones, tongues of living fire. My spirit saw around that which encompassed this flaming habitation, on one of its extremities, that there were rivers full of living fire, which encompassed it.
70:9 Then the Seraphim (exalted ones), the Cherubim, and Ophanin surrounded it; these are those who never sleep, but watch the Throne of His Glory.
70:10 And I beheld angels innumerable, thousands of thousands and myriads of myriads, who surrounded that habitation (Rev. 5:11).
70:11 Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Phanuel, and the holy angels who were in the heavens above, went in and out of it. Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel went out of that habitation, and holy angels innumerable (Rev. 12:7; Sura 2:98).
70:12 With them was the Ancient of Days, Whose head was white as wool, and pure, and His robe was indescribable (Dan. 7:9).
70:13 Then I fell upon my face, while all my flesh was dissolved, and my spirit became changed.
70:14 I cried out with a loud voice, with a powerful spirit, blessing, glorifying, and exalting.
70:15 And those blessings, which proceeded from my mouth, became acceptable in the presence of the Ancient of Days.
70:16 The Ancient of Days came with Michael and Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel, with thousands of thousands, and myriads of myriads, which could not be numbered.
70:17 Then that angel (Michael) came to me, and with his voice saluted me, saying: Thou art the offspring of man, who are born for righteousness, and righteousness has rested on thee.
70:18 The righteousness of the Ancient of Days shall not forsake thee (Heb. 13:5).
70:19 He said: He shall call thee to peace in the name of the self-existing world (Gen. 5:24; Wis. 49:14; Heb. 11:5; Sura 19:57); for from there has peace gone forth since the world was created.
70:20 And thus shall it happen to thee for ever and ever.
70:21 All who shall exist, and who shall walk in thy path of righteousness, shall not forsake thee for ever (Wis. 44:16).
70:22 With thee shall be their habitations, with thee their lot; nor from thee shall they be separated for ever and ever.
70:23 And thus shall length of days be with the offspring of man.
70:24 Peace shall be to the righteous; and His Straight Way to the righteous, in the name of the Lord of Spirits, for ever and ever (John 14:27).
71:1 The book of the revolutions of the luminaries of heaven, according to their respective classes, their respective powers, their respective periods, their respective names, the places of their birth, and their respective months, which Uriel, the holy angel who was with me; he who conducts them, explained to me. The whole account of them, according to every year of the world for ever, or until a new work shall be effected, which shall be eternal (Rev. 21:1).
71:2 This is the first law of the luminaries. The sun and the light arrive at the gates of heaven, which are on the East, and on the West of it at the western gates of heaven.
71:3 I beheld the gates from where the sun goes forth; and the gates where the sun sets;
71:4 In which gates also the moon rises and sets; and I beheld the conductors of the stars, among those who procede them; six gates were at the rising, and six at the setting of the sun.
71:5 All these respectively, one after another, are on a level; and numerous windows are on the right and on the left sides of those gates.
71:6 First proceeds forth that great luminary, which is called the sun; the orb of which is as the orb of heaven, the whole of it being replete with splendid and flaming fire.
71:7 Its chariot, where it ascends, the wind blows.
71:8 The sun sets in heaven, and, returning by the North, to proceed towards the East, is conducted so as to enter by that gate, and illuminate the face of heaven.
71:9 In the same manner it goes forth in the first month by a great gate.
71:10 It goes forth through the fourth of those six gates, which are at the rising of the sun.
71:11 And in the fourth gate, through which the sun with the moon proceeds, in the first part of it, there are twelve open windows; from which issues out a flame, when they are opened at their proper periods.
71:12 When the sun rises in heaven, it goes forth through this fourth gate thirty days, and by the fourth gate in the West of heaven on a level with it descends.
71:13 During that period the day is lengthened from the day, and the night curtailed from the night thirty days. And then the day is longer by two parts than the night.
71:14 The day is precisely ten parts, and the night is eight.
71:15 The sun goes forth through this fourth gate, and sets in it, and turns to the fifth gate during thirty days; after which it proceeds from, and sets in, the fifth gate.
71:16 Then the day becomes lengthened by a second portion, so that it is eleven parts; while the night becomes shortened, and is only seven parts.
71:17 The sun now returns to the East, entering into the sixth gate, and rising and setting in the sixth gate thirty-one days, on account of its signs.
71:18 At that period the day is longer than the night; and becomes twelve parts;
71:19 But the night is shortened, and becomes six parts. Then the sun rises up, that the day may be shortened and the night lengthened.
71:20 And the sun returns towards the East, entering into the sixth gate, where it rises and sets for thirty days.
71:21 When that period is completed, the day becomes shortened precisely one part, so that it is eleven parts, while the night is seven parts.
71:22 Then the sun goes from the West, from that sixth gate, and proceeds eastwards, rising in the fifth gate for thirty days, and setting again westwards in the fifth gate of the West.
71:23 At that period the day becomes shortened two parts; and is ten parts, while the night is eight parts.
71:24 Then the sun goes from the fifth gate, as it sets in the fifth gate of the West; and rises in the fourth gate for thirty-one days, on account of its signs, setting in the West.
71:25 At that period the day is made equal with the night; and, being equal with it, the night becomes nine parts, and the day nine parts.
71:26 Then the sun goes from that gate, as it sets in the West; and returning to the East proceeds by the third gate for thirty days, setting in the West at the third gate.
71:27 At that period the night is lengthened from the day during thirty mornings, and the day is curtailed from the day during thirty days; the night being ten parts precisely, and the day eight parts.
71:28 The sun now goes from the third gate, as it sets in the third gate at the West; but returning to the East, it proceeds by the second gate of the East for thirty days.
71:29 In like manner also it sets in the second gate in the West of heaven.
71:30 At that period the night is eleven parts, and the day seven parts.
71:31 Then the sun goes at that time from the second gate, as it sets in the second gate in the West; but returns to the East, proceeding by the first gate, for thirty-one days.
71:32 And sets in the West in the first gate.
71:33 At that period the night is lengthened as much again as the day.
71:34 It is twelve parts precisely, while the day is six parts.
71:35 Into that gate it enters for thirty days, and sets in the West, in the opposite part of heaven.
71:36 At that period the night is shortened in its length a fourth part, that is, one portion, and becomes eleven parts.
71:37 The day is seven parts.
71:38 Then the sun returns, and enters into the second gate of the East.
71:39 It returns by these beginnings thirty days, rising and setting.
71:40 At that period the night is shortened in its length. It becomes ten parts, and the day eight parts. Then the sun goes from that second gate, and sets in the West; but returns to the East, and rises in the East, in the third gate, thirty-one days, setting in the West of heaven.
71:41 At that period the night becomes shortened. It is nine parts. And the night is equal with the day. The year is precisely three hundred and sixty-four days.
71:42 The sun has thus come back to its beginnings and a second time goes round from these beginnings.
71:43 The lengthening of the day and night, and the shortening of the day and night, are made to differ from each other by the progress of the sun.
71:44 By means of this progress the day is daily lengthened, and the night nightly shortened.
71:45 This is the law and progress of the sun, and its turning when it turns back, turning sixty days, and going forth. This is the great everlasting luminary, that which He names the sun for ever and ever (Gen. 1:14-19).
71:46 There is also that which goes forth a great luminary, and which is named after its peculiar kind, as God commanded.
71:47 And thus it goes in and out, neither slackening nor resting; but running on in its chariot by day and by night. It shines with a seventh portion of light from the sun, but the dimensions of both are equal (as viewed from the Earth - see Eclipse).
72:1 After this law I beheld another law of an inferior luminary, the name of which is the moon, and the orb of which is as the orb of heaven.
72:2 Its chariot, which it secretly ascends, the wind blows; and light is given to it by measure.
72:3 Every month at its exit and entrance it becomes changed; and its periods are as the periods of the sun. And when in like manner its light is to exist, its light is a seventh portion from the light of the sun.
72:4 Thus it rises, and at its commencement towards the East goes forth for thirty days.
72:5 At that time it appears, and becomes to you the beginning of the month. Thirty days it is with the sun in the gate from which the sun goes forth (Gen. 1:14-19; Ps. 113:3).
72:6 Half of it is in extent seven portions, one half; and the whole of its orb is void of light, except a seventh portion out of the fourteen portions of its light. And in a day it receives a seventh portion, or half that portion, of its light. Its light is by sevens, by one portion, and by the half of a portion. It sets with the sun.
72:7 And when the sun rises, the moon rises with it; receiving a half portion of light.
72:8 On that night, at the beginning of its day, previously to the day of the month, the moon sets with the sun.
72:9 And on that night it is dark in its fourteen portions, that is, in each half; but it rises on that day with one-seventh portion precisely, and in its progress declines from the rising of the sun.
72:10 During the remainder of its day its light increases to fourteen portions.
73:1 Then I saw another progress and regulation which He effected in that law. The progress of the moons, and every thing relating to them, Uriel showed me, the holy angels who conducted them all.
73:2 Their stations I wrote down, as he showed them to me.
73:3 I wrote down their months, as they occur, and the appearance of their light, until it is completed in fifteen days.
73:4 In each of its two seven portions it completes all its light at rising, and at each of its seven portions it completes all its darkness at setting.
73:5 On stated months it changes its setting; and on stated months it makes its progress through each gate. In two gates the moon sets with the sun, viz., in those two gates which are in the midst, in the third and fourth gate. From the third gate it goes forth for seven days, and makes its circuit.
73:6 Again it returns to the gate from where the sun goes forth, and in that completes the whole of its light. Then it declines from the sun, and enters in eight days into the sixth gate, from which the sun goes forth.
73:7 When the sun proceeds from the fourth gate, the moon goes forth for seven days, until it passes from the fifth gate.
73:8 Again it returns in seven days to the fourth gate, and completing all its light, declines, and passes on by the first gate in eight days;
73:9 And returns in seven days to the fourth gate, from which the sun goes forth.
73:10 Thus I beheld their stations, as according to the fixed order of the months the sun rises and sets.
73:11 At those times there is an excess of thirty days belonging to the sun in five years; all the days belonging to each year of the five years, when completed, amount to three hundred and sixty-four days; and to the sun and stars belong six days; six days in each of the five years; thus thirty days belong to them;
73:12 So that the moon has thirty days less than the sun and the stars.
73:13 The moon brings on all the years exactly, that their stations may come neither too forwards nor too backwards a single day; but that the years may be changed with correct precision in three hundred and sixty-four days. In three years the days are one thousand and ninety-two; in five years they are one thousand eight hundred and twenty; and in eight years two thousand nine hundred and twelve days.
73:14 To the moon alone belong, in three years, one thousand and sixty-two days; in five years it has fifty days less than the sun, for an addition being made to the one thousand and sixty-two days, in five years there are one thousand seven hundred and seventy days; and the days of the moon in eight years are two thousand eight hundred and thirty-two days.
73:15 For its days in eight years are less than those of the sun by eighty days, which eighty days are its diminution in eight years.
73:16 The year then becomes truly complete according to the station of the moons, and the station of the sun; which rise in different gates; which rise and set in them for thirty days.
74:1 These are the leaders of the chiefs of the thousands, those which preside over all creation, and over all the stars; with the four days which are added and never separated from the place allotted them, according to the complete computation of the year.
74:2 And these serve four days, which are not computed in the computation of the year.
74:3 Respecting them, men greatly err; for these luminaries truly serve, in the mansion of the world, one day in the first gate, one in the third gate, one in the fourth, and one in the sixth gate.
74:4 And the harmony of the world becomes complete every three hundred and sixty-fourth state of it. For the Signs,
74:5 The seasons,
74:6 The years,
74:7 And the days, Uriel showed me; the angel whom the Lord of Glory appointed over all the luminaries
74:8 Of heaven in heaven, and in the world; that they might rule in the face of the sky, and, appearing over the Earth, become
74:9 Conductors of the days and nights; the sun, the moon, the stars, and all the ministers of heaven, which make their circuit with all the chariots of heaven.
74:10 Thus Uriel showed me twelve gates open for the circuit of the chariots of the sun in heaven, from which the rays of the sun shoot forth.
74:11 From these proceed heat over the Earth, when they are opened in their stated seasons. They are for the winds, and the spirit of the dew, when in their seasons they are opened; opened in heaven at its extremities.
74:12 Twelve gates I beheld in heaven, at the extremities of the Earth, through which the sun, moon, and stars, and all the works of heaven, proceed at their rising and setting.
74:13 Many windows also are open on the right and on the left.
74:14 One window at a certain season grows extremely hot. So also are there other gates from which the stars go forth as they are commanded, and in which they set according to their number.
74:15 I saw likewise the chariots of heaven, running in the world above to those gates in which the stars turn, which never set. One of these is greater than all, which goes round the whole world.
75:1 And at the extremities of the Earth I beheld twelve gates open for all the winds, from which they proceed and blow over the Earth.
75:2 Three of them are open in the front of heaven, three in the West, three on the right side of heaven, and three on the left. The first three are those which are towards the East, three are towards the North, three behind those which are upon the left, towards the South, and three on the West.
75:3 From four of them proceed winds of blessing, and of health; and from eight proceed winds of punishment; when they are sent to destroy the Earth, and the heaven above it, all its inhabitants, and all which are in the waters, or on dry land.
75:4 The first of these winds proceed from the gate termed the eastern, through the first gate on the East, which inclines southwards. From this goes forth destruction, drought, heat, and perdition.
75:5 From the second gate, the middle one, proceeds equity. There issue from it rain, fruitfulness, health, and dew; and from the third gate northwards proceed cold and drought.
75:6 After these proceed the south winds through three principal gates; through their first gate, which inclines eastwards, proceeds a hot wind.
75:7 But from the middle gate proceed grateful odour, dew, rain, health, and life.
75:8 From the third gate, which is westwards, proceed dew, rain, blight and destruction.
75:9 After these are the winds to the North, which is called sea. They proceed from three gates. The seventh gate is that which is on the East, inclining southwards; from this proceed dew, rain, blight; and destruction. From the middle direct gate proceed rain, dew, life and health. And from the third gate, which is westwards, inclining towards the North, proceed mist, frost, snow, rain, dew, and blight.
75:10 After these in the fourth quarter are the winds to the West. From the first gate, inclining northwards, proceed dew, rain, frost, cold, snow, and chill; from the middle gate proceed rain, health, and blessing;
75:11 And from the last gate, which is southwards, proceed drought, destruction, scorching, and perdition.
75:12 The account of the twelve gates of the four quarters of heaven is ended.
75:13 All their laws, all their infliction of punishment, and the health produced by them, have I explained to thee, my son Methuselah (Gen. 5:21-27).
76:1 The first wind is called the eastern, because it is the first.
76:2 The second is called the south, because The Most High there descends, and frequently there descends he who is blessed for ever (ch. 61:10; Jud. 13:18 Christ descended as his real self - Archangel Prince Michael).
76:3 The western wind has the name of diminution, because there all the luminaries of heaven are diminished, and descend.
76:4 The fourth wind, which is named the North is divided into three parts; one of which is for the habitation of man; another for seas of water, with valleys, woods, rivers, shady places, and snow; and the third contains para-dice (ch. 41:1).
76:5 Seven high "mountains" (the G.7. govts.) I beheld, higher than all the "mountains" of the Earth, from which frost proceeds (Matt. 24:12); while days, seasons, and years, depart and pass away (Rev. 22:5).
76:6 Seven rivers I beheld upon Earth, greater than all rivers, one of which takes its course from the West; into a great sea its water flows.
76:7 Two come from the North to the sea, their waters flowing into the Erythraean sea, on the East. And with respect to the remaining four, they take their course in the cavity of the North, two to their sea, the Erythraean sea, and two are poured into a great sea, where also it is said there is a desert.
76:8 Seven great islands I saw in the sea and on the Earth. Seven in the great sea.
77:1 The names of the sun are these: one Aryares, the other Tomas.
77:2 The moon has four names. The first is Asonya; the second Ebla; the third, Benase; and the fourth, Erae.
77:3 These are the two great luminaries, whose orbs are as the orbs of heaven; and the dimensions of both are equal.
77:4 In the orb of the moon there is a seventh portion of light, which is added to it from the sun. By measure it is put in, until a seventh portion of the light of the sun is departed. They set, enter into the western gate, circuit by the North, and through the eastern gate go forth over the face of heaven.
77:5 When the moon rises, it appears in heaven; and the half of a seventh portion of light is all that is in it.
77:6 In fourteen days the whole of its light is completed.
77:7 By three quintuples light is put into it, until in fifteen days its light is completed, according to the signs of the year; it has three quintuples.
77:8 The moon has the half of a seventh portion.
77:9 During its diminution on the first day its light decreases a fourteenth part; on the second day it decreases a thirteenth part; on the third day a twelfth part; on the fourth day an eleventh part; on the fifth day a tenth part; on the sixth day a ninth part; on the seventh day it decreases an eighth part; on the eighth day it decreases a seventh part; on the ninth day it decreases a sixth part; on the tenth day it decreases a fifth part; on the eleventh day it decreases a fourth part; on the twelfth day it decreases a third part; on the thirteenth day it decreases a second part; on the fourteenth day it decreases a half of its seventh part; and on the fifteenth day the whole remainder of its light is consumed.
77:10 On stated months the moon has twenty-nine days.
77:11 It also has a period of twenty-eight days.
77:12 Uriel likewise showed me another regulation, when light is poured into the moon, how it is poured into it from the sun.
77:13 All the time that the moon is in progress with its light, it is poured into it in the presence of the sun, until its light is in fourteen days completed in heaven.
77:14 And when it is wholly extinguished, its light is consumed in heaven; and on the first day it is called the new moon, for on that day light is received into it.
77:15 It becomes precisely completed on the day that the sun descends into the West, while the moon ascends at night from the East.
77:16 The moon then shines all the night, until the sun rises before it; when the moon disappears in turn before the sun.
77:17 Where the light comes to the moon, there again it decreases, until all its light is extinguished, and the days of the moon pass away.
77:18 Then its orb remains solitary without light.
77:19 During three months it effects in thirty days each month its period; and during three more months it effects it in twenty-nine days each. These are the times in which it effects its decrease in its first period, and in the first gate, namely, in one hundred and seventy-seven days.
77:20 And at the time of its going forth during three months it appears thirty days each, and during three more months it appears twenty-nine days each.
77:21 In the night it appears for each twenty days as the face of a man (the Man in the Moon), and in the day as heaven; for it is nothing else except its light.
78:1 And now, my son Methuselah, I have shown thee everything; and the account of every ordinance of the stars of heaven is finished.
78:2 He showed me every ordinance respecting these, which takes place at all times and in all seasons under every influence, in all years, at the arrival and under the rule of each, during every month and every week. He showed me also the decrease of the moon, which is effected in the sixth gate; for in that sixth gate is its light consumed.
78:3 From this is the beginning of the month; and its decrease is effected in the sixth gate in its period, until a hundred and seventy-seven days are completed; according to the ordinance of the week, twenty-five weeks and two days.
78:4 Its period is less than that of the sun, according to the ordinance of the stars, by five days in one time precisely.
78:5 When that their visible situation is completed. Such is the appearance and likeness of every luminary, which Uriel the great angel who conducts them, showed to me.
79:1 In those days Uriel answered me and said to me; Behold, I have showed thee all things, O Enoch;
79:2 And all things have I revealed to thee. Thou seest the sun, the moon, and those which conduct the stars of heaven, which cause all their operations, seasons, and arrivals to return.
79:3 In the days of sinners the years shall be shortened.
79:4 Their seed shall be backward in their prolific soil; and every thing done on Earth shall be subverted, and disappear in its season. The rain shall be restrained, and heaven shall stand still.
79:5 In those days the fruit of the Earth shall be late, and not flourish in their season; and in their season the fruits of the trees shall be withheld.
79:6 The moon shall change its laws, and not be seen at its proper period. But in those days shall heaven be seen; and barrenness shall take place in the borders of the great chariots in the West. Heaven shall shine more than when illuminated by the orders of light; while many chiefs among the stars of authority shall err, perverting their ways and works.
79:7 Those shall not appear in their season, who command them, and all the classes of the stars shall be shut up against sinners.
79:8 The thoughts of those who dwell on Earth shall transgress within them; and they shall be perverted in all their ways (2 Tim., 3rd ch.).
79:9 They shall transgress, and think themselves gods, while evil shall be multiplied among them.
79:10 And punishment shall come upon them, so that ALL of them shall be destroyed (Armageddon - WW3; and the Reaping - 2 Esd. 9:15-16; 16:22-28).
80:1 He said: O Enoch, look on the Book which heaven has distilled; and, reading that which is written in it, understand every part of it.
80:2 Then I looked on all which was written, and understood all, reading the Book and every thing written in it, all the works of man;
80:3 And all the children of flesh upon Earth, during the generation of the world (2 Tim. 3:16).
80:4 Immediately after I blessed the Lord, the King of Glory, Who has thus for ever formed the whole workmanship of the world.
80:5 And I glorified the Lord, on account of His long-suffering and blessing towards the children of the world.
80:6 At that time I said: Blessed is the man, who shall die righteous and good, against whom no catalogue of crime has been written, and with whom iniquity is not found (Sura 69:19-24).
80:7 Then those three holy ones caused me to approach, and placed me on the Earth, before the door of my house.
80:8 And they said to me: Explain every thing to Methuselah thy son; and inform all thy children, that NO FLESH shall be justified before the Lord (John 3:3-7); for He is their creator (Gal. 2:16).
80:9 During one year we will leave thee with thy children, until thou shalt again recover thy strength, that thou mayest instruct thy family, write these things, and explain them to all thy children. But in another year they shall take thee from the midst of them (Gen. 5:24; Wis. 44:16; Heb. 11:5; Sura 19:56), and thy heart shall be strengthened; for the Elect shall point out righteousness to the Elect; the righteous with the righteous shall rejoice, congratulating each other; but sinners with sinners shall die (Eze. 18:4, 20),
80:10 And the perverted with the perverted shall be drowned.
80:11 Those likewise who act righteously shall die on account of the works of man, and be gathered together on account of the works of the wicked.
80:12 In those days they finished conversing with me.
80:13 And I returned to my fellow-men, blessing the Lord of the Worlds (Sura 43:46).
81:1 Now my son Methuselah, all these things I speak unto thee, and write for thee. To thee I have revealed all, and have given thee Books of every thing.
81:2 Preserve, my son Methuselah, the Books written by the hand of thy father (Enoch); that thou mayest transmit them to future generations.
81:3 Wisdom have I given to thee, to thy children, and thy posterity, that they may transmit to their children, for generations FOR EVER, this wisdom in their thoughts; and that those who comprehend it may not slumber (spiritually), but hear with their ears (ears of their spirit); that they may learn this Wisdom and be deemed worthy of eating this wholesome food (for their spirit)(Matt. 4:4).
81:4 Blessed are the righteous; blessed are all who walk in the paths of righteousness (Matt. 5:3-13); in whom no crime is found, as in sinners, when all their days are numbered.
81:5 With respect to the progress of the sun, in heaven, it enters and goes out of each gate for thirty days, with the leaders of the thousand classes of the stars; with four which are added, and appertain to the four quarters of the year, which conduct them, and accompany them at four periods.
81:6 Respecting these, men greatly err, and do not compute them in the computation of every age; for they greatly err respecting them; nor do men know accurately that they are in the computation of the year. But indeed these are sealed for ever; one in the first gate, one in the third, one in the fourth, and one in the sixth:
81:7 So that the year is completed in three hundred and sixty-four days.
81:8 Truly have they related, and accurately has been computed that which is marked down; for the luminaries, the months, the fixed periods, the years, and the days, Uriel has explained to me, and has breathed into me; whom the Lord of all creation, on my account, commanded (according to the might of heaven, and the power which it possesses both by night and by day) to explain the laws of light to man, of the sun, moon, and stars, and of all the powers of heaven, which are turned with their respective orbs.
81:9 This is the ordinance of the stars, which set in their places, in their seasons, in their periods, in their days, and in their months.
81:10 These are the names of those who conduct them, who watch and enter in their seasons, according to their ordinance in their periods, in their months, in the times of their influence, and in their stations.
81:11 Four conductors of them first enter, who separate the four quarters of the year. After these, twelve conductors of their classes, who separate the months and the year into three hundred and sixty-four days, with the leaders of a thousand, who distinguish between the days, as well as the four additional ones; which as conductors, divide the four quarters of the year.
81:12 These leaders of a thousand are in the midst of the conductors, and the conductors are added each behind his station, and their conductors make the separation. These are the names of the conductors, who separate the four quarters of the year, who are appointed over them; Melkel, Helammelak,
81:13 Meliyal, and Narel.
81:14 And the names of those who conduct them are Adnarel, Jyasusal, and Jyelumeal.
81:15 These are the three who follow after the conductors of the classes of stars; each following after the three conductors of the classes, which themselves follow after those conductors of the stations, who divide the four quarters of the year.
81:16 In the first part of the year rises and rules Melkyas, who is named Tamani, and the Sun.
81:17 All the days of his influence, during which he rules, are ninety-one days.
81:18 And these are the signs of the days which are seen upon Earth. In the days of his influence there is perspiration, heat, and trouble. All the trees become fruitful; the leaf of every tree comes forth; the corn is reaped; the rose and every species of flower blossom in the field; and the trees of Winter are dried up.
81:19 These are the names of the conductors who are under them, Barkel, Zelsabel; and another additional conductor of a thousand is named Heloyalef, the days of whose influence have been completed. The other conductor next after them is Helemmelek, whose name they call the Sun.
81:20 All the days of his light are ninety-one days.
81:21 These are the signs of the days upon Earth, heat and drought; while the trees bring forth their fruits, warmed and concocted, and give their fruits to dry.
81:22 The flocks follow and wean. All the fruits of the Earth are collected, with everything in the fields, and the vines are trodden. This takes place during the time of his influence.
81:23 These are their names and orders, and the names of the conductors who are under them, of those who are chiefs of a thousand, Gedaeyal, Keel, Heel.
81:24 And the name of the additional leader of a thousand is Asphael.
81:25 The days of his influence have been completed.
82:1 And now I have shown thee, my son Methuselah, every sight which I saw before thee. I will relate another vision, which I saw before I was married; they resemble each other.
82:2 The first was when I was learning a Book (ch. 1:2); and the other (ch. 84:1) before I was married to thy mother. I saw a potent vision.
82:3 And because of these things I sought the Lord.
82:4 I was lying down in the house of my grandfather Mahalaleel, when I saw in a vision heaven purifying, and snatched away.
82:5 And falling to the Earth, I saw likewise the Earth absorbed by a great abyss; and mountains suspended over mountains.
82:6 Hills were sinking upon hills, lofty trees were cutting off from their trunks (deforestation - 2 Esdras 5:5), and were in the act of being projected, and of sinking into the abyss.
82:7 Being alarmed at these things, the word fell down in my mouth. I cried out and said: The Earth is destroyed. Then my grandfather Mahalaleel raised me up, and said to me: Why dost thou cry out, my son? And why dost thou thus lament?
82:8 I related to him the whole vision which I had seen. He said to me: Confirmed is that which thou hast seen, my son;
82:9 And potent the vision of thy dream respecting every secret sin concerning the Earth (including the sin of deforestation - Rev. 11:18 & Deut. 20:19). Its substance shall sink into the abyss, and a great destruction take place (Armageddon - "like the Times of Noah will it be" - Matt. 24:37-39).
82:10 Now, my son, rise up; and beseech the Lord of Glory (for thou art faithful), that a remnant may be left upon Earth (Rev. 7:14), and that He would not wholly destroy it. My son, all this is upon Earth from heaven; upon Earth shall there be a great destruction.
82:11 Then I arose, prayed, and entreated; and wrote down my prayer for the generations of the world, explaining every thing to my son Methuselah.
82:12 When I went out below, and looking up to heaven beheld the sun proceeding from the East, the moon descending to the West, a few scattered stars, and every thing which He has shown from the beginning, I blessed the Lord of Judgement, and magnified Him; because He has sent forth the sun from the windows of the East; that, ascending and rising in the face of heaven, it might spring up, and pursue the path which has been pointed out to it.
83:1 I lifted up my hands in righteousness, and blessed the Holy and the Great One. I spoke with the breath of my mouth, and with a tongue of flesh, which God has formed for all the sons of mortal men, that with it they may speak; giving them breath, a mouth, and a tongue to converse with.
83:2 Blessed art Thou, O Lord, The King, great and powerful in Thy greatness, Lord of ALL the creatures of heaven, King of kings, God of the whole world, Whose reign, Whose Kingdom, and Whose Majesty endure for ever and ever.
83:3 From generation to generation shall Thy Dominion exist. All the heavens are Thy throne for ever, and all the Earth Thy footstool for ever and for ever (1 Chron. 29:10-13).
83:4 For Thou hast made them, and over all Thou reignest. No act whatsoever exceeds Thy power. With Thee Wisdom is unchangeable; nor from Thy Throne and from Thy presence is it ever averted. Thou knowest all things, seest and hearest them; nor is anything concealed from Thee; for Thou perceivest all things.
83:5 The angels (Beings) of Thy heavens have transgressed; and on mortal flesh (human) shall Thy wrath be, UNTIL the Day of the Great Judgement (when the Being part of the human+Being will be punished).
83:6 Now then, O God, Lord and mighty King, I entreat Thee, and beseech Thee to grant my prayer, that a posterity may be left to me on Earth, and that the whole human race may not perish;
83:7 That the Earth may not be left destitute, and destruction take place for ever.
83:8 O my Lord, let the race which has offended Thee perish from off the Earth, but a righteous and upright race establish for the planting of the seed (Matt. 13:18-43) for ever. Hide not Thy face, O Lord, from the prayer of Thy servant.
84:1 After this I saw another dream, and explained it all to thee, my son. Enoch arose and said to his son Methuselah: To thee, my son, will I speak. Hear my word; and incline thine ear to the visionary dream of thy father. Before I married thy mother Edna, I saw a vision on my bed;
84:2 And beheld a cow sprung forth from the Earth (cattle - a symbol of mankind - Eze. 34:22);
84:3 And this cow was white (Adam).
84:4 Afterwards a calf sprung forth; and with it another calf; one of them was black, and one was red.
84:5 The black calf then struck the red one, and pursued it over the Earth (Cain - "Possessions" killed "the Breath of Life" - Abel).
84:6 From that period I could see nothing more of the red calf; but the black one increased in bulk (quantity), and a heifer came with him (Cain married Awan).
84:7 After this I saw that many cows proceeded forth, resembling him, and following after him (his example).
84:8 The first female, a black cow (Eve) also went out in the presence of the first cow (the white one - Adam); and sought the red calf (Abel); but found him not.
84:9 And she lamented with a great lamentation, while she was seeking him.
84:10 Then I looked until that first cow came to her, from which time she became silent, and ceased to lament.
84:11 Afterwards she calved again, a white calf (Seth).
84:12 And again calved many cows and black calves.
84:13 In my sleep also I perceived a white bull, which in like manner grew, and became a large white bull (Enoch).
84:14 After him many white cows came forth, resembling him.
84:15 And they began to calve many other white cows, which resembled them and followed each other (Noah's family).
85:1 Again I looked with my eyes, while sleeping, and surveyed heaven above.
85:2 And behold a single star fell from heaven (Samyaza).
85:3 Which being raised up, ate and fed among these cows.
85:4 After that, I perceived other large and black cows; and beheld all of them change their stalls and pastures, while their young began to lament one with another. Again I looked in my vision and surveyed heaven; when behold I saw many stars (the Watchers) which descended, and projected themselves from heaven to where the first star (Samyaza) was.
85:5 Into the midst of those young ones; while the cows were with them, feeding in the midst of them.
85:6 I looked at and observed them; when behold, they all protruded their parts of shame like horses, and began to ascend the young heifers, all of whom became pregnant, and brought forth elephants (giants), camels, and asses (Gen. 6:4).
85:7 At these all the cows (men) were alarmed and terrified; when they began to bite them with their teeth, swallowing and striking with their horns.
85:8 They began also to devour (eat) the cows (men); and behold all the children of the Earth trembled, shook with terror at them, and suddenly fled away.
86:1 Again I perceived them, when they began to strike and to swallow each other; and the Earth cried out. Then I raised my eyes a second time towards heaven, and saw in a vision, that, behold, there came forth from heaven as it were the likeness of white men. One came forth from there; and three with him (Archangels).
86:2 Those three, who came forth last, seized me by my hand; and raising me up from the generations of the Earth, elevated me to a high station (Sura 19:56-57).
86:3 Then they showed me a lofty tower on the Earth (Mt. Ararat), while every hill became diminished. And they said: Remain here, until thou perceivest what shall come upon those elephants, camels, and asses (giants), upon the stars (the Watchers of heaven), and upon all the cattle (humans) - (the Flood).
87:1 Then I looked at that one of the four who had the likeness of white men, who came forth first (Michael).
87:2 He seized the first star which fell down from heaven.
87:3 And, binding it hand and foot, he cast it into a valley; a valley narrow, deep, stupendous, and gloomy.
87:4 Then one of them drew his sword, and gave it to the elephants, camels, and asses, who began to strike each other. And the whole Earth shook on account of them.
87:5 And when I looked in the vision, behold, one of those four angels, who came forth; hurled from heaven, collected together, and took all the great stars, whose parts of shame resembled those of horses; and binding them all hand and foot, cast them into the cavities of the Earth (2 Pet. 2:4).
88:1 Then one of those four went to the white cows, and taught them a secret. It was born, and while the cow (Lamech) was trembling (ch. 105:3), became a man, and built for himself a large ship (Noah's Ark). In this he dwelt, and three cows (Ham, Shem, and Japheth) dwelt with him in that ship, which covered them (Gen. 7:7).
88:2 Again I lifted up my eyes towards heaven, and saw a lofty roof. Above it were seven cataracts, which poured forth much water on a certain village.
88:3 Again I looked, and behold there were "mountains" (governments) open on the Earth in that large village.
88:4 The water began to boil up, and rose over the Earth; so that the village was not seen, while its whole soil was covered with water.
88:5 Much water was over it, darkness, and clouds. Then I surveyed the height of this water; and it was elevated above the village.
88:6 It flowed over the village, and stood higher than the earth.
88:7 Then all the cows which were collected there, while I looked upon them, were drowned, swallowed up, and destroyed in the water.
88:8 But the ship floated above it. All the cows, the elephants, the camels, and the asses, were drowned on the Earth, and all cattle. Nor could I perceive them. Neither were they able to get out, but perished, and sunk into the deep.
88:9 Again I looked in the vision until those cataracts from that lofty roof were removed, and the fountains of the Earth became equalized, while other depths were opened;
88:10 Into which the water began to descend, until the dry ground appeared.
88:11 The ship rested on the earth; darkness receded; and it became light.
88:12 Then the white cow, which became a man, went out of the ship, and the three cows with him (Gen. 8:18).
88:13 One of the three cows was white (Shem) resembling that cow (Noah); one of them was red as blood (Japheth - to become communists - Rev. 11:6), and one of them was black (Ham). And the white cow was left (Sura 66:10).
88:14 Then began wild beasts and birds to bring forth.
88:15 Of all these the different kinds assembled together, lions, tigers, wolves, dogs, wild boars, foxes, rabbits, and the hanzar.
88:16 The siset, the avest, kites, the phonkas and ravens.
88:17 Then a white cow was born in the midst of them (Abraham).
88:18 And they began to bite each other; when the white cow, which was born in the midst of them, brought forth a wild ass and a white cow at the same time (Ishmael and Isaac) and after that many wild asses (Keturah's children). Then a white cow, which was born, brought forth a black wild sow (Esau/Edom/Idumean) and a white sheep (Jacob/Israel).
88:19 That wild sow (Esau) also brought forth many swine (Gen. 26:34; 28:9; 32:6);
88:20 And that white sheep (Jacob/Israel) brought forth twelve sheep (sons, who fathered the Twelve Tribes of Israel - The Shepherd's flock - Gen. 49:24; Eze. 34; John 10:11).
88:21 When those twelve sheep grew up, they delivered one of them to the asses (Ishmaelites - Gen. 37:25-28).
88:22 Again those asses delivered that sheep (Joseph) to the wolves (Gen. 37:36);
88:23 And he grew up in the midst of them.
88:24 Then the Lord brought the eleven other sheep, that they might dwell and feed with him in the midst of the wolves (Egyptians).
88:25 They multiplied, and there was abundance of pasture for them
88:26 But the wolves began to frighten and oppress them, while they destroyed their young ones.
88:27 And they left their young in torrents of deep water (Ex. 1:22).
88:28 Now the sheep began to cry out on account of their young, and fled for refuge to their Lord. One (Moses), however, which was saved, later escaped, and went away to the wild asses (Ishmaeli Midianites).
88:29 I beheld the sheep moaning, crying, and petitioning their Lord
88:30 With all their might, until the Lord of the sheep descended at their cries from His lofty habitation; went to them; and inspected them (Ex. 3:7-9).
88:31 He called to that sheep (Ex. 3:4) which had secretly stolen away from the wolves, and told him to make the wolves understand that they were not to touch the sheep.
88:32 Then that sheep went to the wolves with the Word of the Lord, when another (Aaron) met him, and proceeded with him.
88:33 Both of them together entered the dwelling of the wolves; and conversing with them made them understand, that from there-on they were not to touch the sheep.
88:34 Afterwards I perceived the wolves greatly prevailing over the sheep with their whole force. The sheep cried out; and their Lord came to them.
88:35 He began to strike the wolves (with ten plagues), who commenced a grievous lamentation; but the sheep were silent, nor from that time did they cry out.
88:36 I then looked at them, until they departed from the wolves. The eyes of the wolves were blind, who went out and followed them with all their might. But the Lord of the sheep proceeded them and conducted them.
88:37 All His sheep followed Him.
88:38 His countenance was terrific and splendid, and glorious was His aspect. Yet the wolves began to follow the sheep, until they caught them up in a certain lake of water.
88:39 Then that lake became divided; the water standing up on both sides before their face.
88:40 And while their Lord was conducting them, He placed Himself between them and the wolves.
88:41 The wolves however perceived not the sheep, but went into the midst of the lake, following them, and running after them into the lake of water.
88:42 But when they saw the Lord of the sheep, they turned to fly from before His face.
88:43 Then the water of the lake returned, and that suddenly, according to its nature. It became full, and was raised up, until it covered the wolves. And I saw that all of them which had followed the sheep perished, and were drowned (Ex. 14:26).
88:44 But the sheep passed over this water, proceeding to a wilderness, which was without both water and grass. And they began to open their eyes and to see (spiritually).
88:45 Then I beheld the Lord of the sheep inspecting them, and giving them water and grass (Manna and quails).
88:46 The sheep already mentioned was proceeding with them, and conducting them (Moses).
88:47 And when he had ascended the top of a lofty rock, the Lord of the sheep sent him to them.
88:48 Afterwards I perceived their Lord standing before them, with an aspect terrific and severe.
88:49 And when they all beheld Him, they were frightened at His countenance.
88:50 All of them were alarmed, and trembled. They cried out after that sheep; and to the other sheep who had been with Him, and who was in the midst of them, saying: We are not able to stand before our Lord, or to look upon Him.
88:51 Then that sheep who conducted them went away and ascended the top of the rock (Mt. Horeb in Sinai).
88:52 When the rest of the sheep began to grow blind (spiritually), and to wander from The Way (Deut. 11:28; 31:29) which he had shown them; but he knew it not.
88:53 Their Lord, however, was moved with great indignation against them; and when that sheep had learned what had happened,
88:54 He descended from the top of the rock, and coming to them, found that there were many
88:55 Which had become (spiritually) blind;
88:56 And had wandered from His Way. As soon as they beheld him, they feared, and trembled at his presence;
88:57 And became desirous of returning to their fold.
88:58 Then that sheep, taking with him other sheep, went to those which had wandered.
88:59 And afterwards began to kill them. They were terrified at his countenance. Then he caused those which had wandered to return; who went back to their fold (Ex.32).
88:60 I likewise saw there in the vision, that this sheep became a man, built an house for the Lord of the sheep, and made them all stand in that house (Tabernacle of the Congregation).
88:61 I perceived also that the sheep which proceeded to meet this sheep, their conductor (Korah or Dathan - Num. 16; 26:9; 27:3; Jude 11), died. I saw, too, that all the great sheep perished, while smaller ones rose up in their place, entered into a pasture, and approached a river of water (Jordan).
88:62 Then that sheep, their conductor, who had become a man, was separated from them and died (Moses - Deut. 34:5-6).
88:63 All the sheep sought after him, and cried for him with bitter lamentation.
88:64 I saw likewise that they ceased to cry after that sheep, and passed over the river of water (Jordan under Joshua's leadership).
88:65 And there arose other sheep (the first being Joshua), all of whom conducted them, instead of those who were dead, and who had previously conducted them.
88:66 Then I saw that the sheep entered into a goodly place, and a territory delectable and glorious (Land of Canaan).
88:67 I saw also that they became satiated; that their house was in the midst of delectable territory; and that sometimes their (spiritual) eyes were opened, and that sometimes they were (spiritually - John 3:3) blind; until another sheep arose and conducted them. He (Samuel) brought them all back; and their eyes were opened.
(AGE OF THE KINGS AND PROPHETS OVER JUDAH AND ISRAEL)
88:68 Then dogs, foxes, and wild boars began to devour them, until again another sheep arose, the master of the flock, one of themselves (Saul), a ram (king), to conduct them. This ram began to butt on every side those dogs, foxes, and wild boars, until they all perished.
88:69 But the former sheep (Samuel) opened his eyes, and saw the ram, who had laid aside his glory, in the midst of them.
88:70 And he began to strike the sheep, treading upon them, and behaving himself without dignity.
88:71 Then their Lord sent the former sheep (Samuel) again to another sheep (David), and raised him up to be a ram (king), and to conduct them instead of that sheep (Saul) who had laid aside his glory.
88:72 Going therefore to him, and conversing with him alone, he raised up that ram, and made him a prince and leader of the flock. All the time that the dogs troubled the sheep.
88:73 The first ram paid respect to this latter ram.
88:74 Then the latter ram arose, and fled away from before his face. And I saw that those dogs (Philistines) caused the first ram to fall (1 Sam. 31).
88:75 But the latter ram arose and conducted the smaller sheep.
88:76 That ram (David) likewise begat many sheep, and died.
88:77 Then there was a smaller sheep, a ram, instead of him, which became a prince and leader (Solomon), conducting the flock.
88:78 But the sheep increased in size, and multiplied.
88:79 And all the dogs, foxes, and wild boars feared, and fled away from him.
88:80 That ram also struck and killed all the wild beasts, so that they could not again prevail in the midst of the sheep, nor at any time ever snatch them away.
88:81 And that house was made large and wide; a lofty tower (The Temple) being built upon it (Mt. Moriah) by the sheep, for the Lord of the sheep (House of the Lord in Jerusalem).
88:82 The house was low, but the tower was elevated and very high.
88:83 Then the Lord of the sheep stood upon that tower, and caused a full table to approach before Him.
88:84 Again I saw that those sheep wandered, and went various ways, forsaking that House (of God);
88:85 And that their Lord called to some among them, whom He sent to them (the Prophets).
88:86 But these the sheep began to kill. And when one of them was saved from slaughter, he leaped, and cried out against those who were desirous of killing him.
88:87 But the Lord of the sheep delivered him from their hands, and made him (Elijah - 2 kings 2:11) to ascend to him, and remain with him.
88:88 He sent also many others to them, to testify, and with lamentations (La.) to exclaim, against them.
88:89 Again I saw, when some of them forsook the House of their Lord, and his tower; wandering on all sides, and growing blind.
88:90 I saw that the Lord of the sheep made a great slaughter among them in their pasture, until they cried out to Him in consequence of that slaughter. Then He departed from the place of His habitation, and left them in the power of lions, tigers (ch. 59:7-8), wolves, and the zeebt, and in the power of foxes, and of every beast.
88:91 And the wild beasts began to tear them.
88:92 I saw, too, that He forsook the house of their father and their tower; giving them all into the power of lions to tear and devour them; into the power of every beast.
88:93 Then I began to cry out with all my might, imploring the Lord of the sheep, and showing Him how the sheep were devoured by all the beasts of prey.
88:94 But He looked on in silence, rejoicing that they were devoured, swallowed up, and carried off; and leaving them in the power of every beast for food. He called also seventy shepherds, and resigned to them the care of the sheep, that they might overlook them.
88:95 Saying to them and to their associates: Every one of you henceforwards overlook the sheep, and whatsoever I command you, do; and I will deliver them to you with number.
88:96 I will tell you which of them shall be slain; these destroy. And He delivered the sheep to them.
88:97 Then He called to another, and said: Understand, and watch every thing which the shepherds shall do to these sheep; for many more of them shall perish than I have commanded.
88:98 Of every excess and slaughter, which the shepherds shall commit, there shall be an account; as, how many have perished by My command, and how many they have destroyed by their own will.
88:99 Of all the destruction brought about by each of the shepherds there shall be an account; and according to the number I will cause a recital to be made before Me, how many they have destroyed at their own hands, and how many they have delivered up to destruction, that I may have this testimony against them that I may know all their proceedings; and that, delivering the sheep to them, I may see what they will do; whether they will act as I have COMMANDED them, or not.
88:100 Of this, however, they shall be ignorant (Isa. 56:9-12). Neither shalt thou make any explanation to them, neither shalt thou reprove them; but there shall be an account of all the destruction done by them in their respective seasons. Then they began to kill, and destroy more than it was commanded them.
88:101 And they left the sheep in the power of lions, so that very many of them were devoured and swallowed up by lions and tigers; and wild boars preyed upon them. That tower (Temple built by Solomon) they (Nebuchadnezzar's men) burnt, and overthrew that house.
88:102 Then I grieved extremely on account of the tower, and because the house of the sheep was overthrown.
88:103 Neither was I afterwards able to perceive, whether they again entered that house.
88:104 The shepherds likewise, and their associates, delivered them to all the wild beasts, that they might devour them. Each of them in his season, according to his number, was delivered up; each of them, one with another, was described in a book, how many of them, one with another, were destroyed, in a book.
88:105 However, every shepherd killed and destroyed more than was ordered.
88:106 Then I began to weep, and was greatly indignant, on account of the sheep.
88:107 In like manner also I saw in the vision him who wrote, how he wrote down one, destroyed by the shepherds, every day. He ascended, remained, and exhibited each of his books to the Lord of the sheep, containing ALL which they had done, and ALL which each of them had made away with;
88:108 And all which they had delivered up to destruction.
88:109 He took the book up in His hands, read it, sealed it, and deposited it.
88:110 After this, I saw shepherds overlooking for twelve hours.
88:111 And behold, three of the sheep departed, arrived, went in; and began building all which was fallen down of that House.
88:112 But the wild boars hindered them, although they did not succeed (in stopping them).
88:113 Again they began to build as before, and raised up that tower (the second Temple), which was called a lofty tower (House of God).
88:114 And again they began to place before the tower a table, with every impure and unclean kind of bread upon it (Isa. 28:7-21).
88:115 Moreover also ALL the sheep were (spiritually) blind, and could not see; as were the shepherds likewise (Matt. 15:4; John 3:3).
88:116 Thus were they delivered up to the shepherds (priests) for a great destruction, who trod them under foot, and devoured them (Eze. 34; Matt. 23:4).
88:117 Yet was their Lord silent, until all the sheep in the field were destroyed. The shepherds (priests) and the sheep were all mixed up together; but they (the priests) did not save them from the power of the beasts.
88:118 Then he who wrote the book ascended, exhibited it, and read it at the residence of the Lord of the sheep. He petitioned Him for them, and prayed, pointing out every act of the shepherds (priests), and testifying before Him against them all. Then taking the book, he deposited it with Him, and departed.
THE GOSPEL AGE IN PROPHECY
89:1 And I observed during that time, that thus thirty-seven shepherds were overlooking, all of whom finished in their respective periods as the first. Others then received them into their hands, that they might overlook them in their respective periods, every shepherd in his own period.
89:2 Afterwards I saw in the vision, that all the birds of heaven arrived; eagles, the avest, kites and ravens. The eagle (Rome - New Babylon - Sura 17:5-7) instructed them all.
89:3 They began to devour the sheep, to peck out their eyes, and to eat up their bodies.
89:4 The sheep then cried out; for their bodies were devoured by the birds.
89:5 I also cried out, and groaned in my sleep against the shepherd which overlooked the flock.
89:6 And I looked, while the sheep were eaten up by the dogs (Matt. 7:6; 15:24-28), by the eagles, and by the kites. They left them neither body, nor their skin, nor their muscles, until their bones alone remained; until their bones fell upon the ground. And the sheep became diminished.
89:7 I observed likewise during the time, that twenty-three shepherds (Thom. 9:1) were overlooking; who completed in their respective periods fifty-eight periods.
89:8 Then were small lambs (zealots) born of those white sheep who began to open their (spiritual) eyes and to see, crying out to the sheep.
89:9 The sheep however did not cry out to them, neither did they hear what they uttered to them; but were deaf, blind, and inflexible in the greatest degree.
89:10 I saw in the vision that ravens (Idumean Jews) flew down upon those lambs;
89:11 That they seized one of them (Matt. 14:3-10); and that tearing the sheep in pieces, they devoured them.
89:12 I also saw, that horns grew upon those lambs; and that the ravens lighted down upon their horns.
89:13 I saw, too, that a large horn (Christ - the Elect One) sprouted out on one among the sheep (Jesus), and that their eyes were opened.
89:14 He looked at them. Their eyes were WIDE OPEN; and he cried out to them.
89:15 Then the faithful saw him; all of whom ran to him.
89:16 And besides this, all the eagles, the avest, the ravens and the kites, were still carrying off the sheep, flying down upon them, and devouring them. The sheep were silent, but the faithful lamented and cried out.
89:17 Then the ravens (Esau/Idumean Jews' Sanhedrin) contended, and struggled with them.
89:18 They wished among them to break his horn; but they prevailed not over him.
89:19 I looked on them, until the shepherds (priests), the eagles, the avest, and the kites came.
89:20 Who cried out to the ravens (Idumean Jews' Sanhedrin) to break the horn of the faithful; to contend with him; and to kill (crucify) him. But he struggled with them, and cried out ("Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani"), that help might come to him (Ps. 22; Matt. 27:46).
89:21 Then I perceived that the man came who had written down the names of the shepherds, and who ascended up before the Lord of the sheep.
89:22 He brought assistance, and caused every one to see him descending to the help of the faithful.
89:23 I perceived correspondingly that the Lord of the sheep came to them in wrath (Matt. 27:51-54), while all those who saw Him fled away; all fell down in His Tabernacle before His face; while all the eagles, the avest, ravens, and kites assembled, and brought with them all the sheep of the field.
89:24 All came together, and strove to break the horn of the faithful (Acts 8:1).
89:25 Then I saw, that the man who wrote the book at the word of the Lord, opened the Book of Destruction, of that destruction which the last twelve shepherds wrought; and pointed out before the Lord of the sheep, that they destroyed more than those who preceded them (wars, including three World Wars).
CLIMAX OF THE SECOND COMING
89:26 I saw also that the Lord of the sheep came to them, and taking in His hand the sceptre of His wrath seized the Earth, which became rent asunder; while all the beasts and birds of heaven fell from the (faithful) sheep, and sank into the earth, which closed over them.
89:27 I saw, too, that a large sword was given to the (faithful) sheep (John 10:26-28), who went forth against all the beasts of the field to slay them (Ps. 149:9; Isa. 41:15; Rev. 17:14 - The True Jihad - Holy War; Sura 43:61).
89:28 But all the beasts and birds of heaven fled away from before their face.
89:29 And I saw a throne erected in a delectable land (Israel);
89:30 Upon this sat the Lord of the (faithful) sheep, who received all the sealed books (Rev. 5:1 & 20:12);
89:31 Which were opened before Him.
89:32 Then the Lord called the first seven white ones, and commanded them to bring before Him the first of the stars (Samyaza) which preceded the stars whose parts of shame resembled those of horses; the first star, which fell down first; and they brought them all before Him.
89:33 And He spoke to the man who wrote in His presence, who was one of the seven white ones, saying: Take those seventy shepherds, to whom I delivered up the sheep, and who receiving them killed more of them than I commanded. Behold, I saw them all bound, and all standing before Him. First came on the trial of the stars, which, being judged, and found guilty, went to the place of punishment. They thrust them into a place, deep, and full of flaming fire, and full of pillars of fire. Then the seventy shepherds were judged, and being found guilty, were thrust into the flaming abyss.
89:34 At that time likewise I perceived, that one abyss was thus opened in the midst of the Earth, which was full of fire.
89:35 And to this were brought the blind sheep; which, being judged, and found guilty, were ALL thrust into that abyss of fire on the Earth, and burnt (Matt. 15:14; Rev. 20:10-15).
89:36 The abyss was on the right of that house.
89:37 And I saw the sheep burning, and their bones consuming.
89:38 I stood beholding Him immerse (Matt. 24:16) that ancient house, while they brought out its pillars, every plant in it, and the ivory infolding it. They brought it out, and deposited it in a place on the right side of the Earth.
89:39 I also saw that the Lord of the sheep produced a new house (New Jerusalem - Rev. 21:2, 10), greater and loftier than the former, which He bounded by the former circular spot. All its pillars were new, and its ivory new, as well as more abundant than the former ancient ivory, which He had brought out.
89:40 And while all the sheep which were left were in the midst of it, all the beasts of the Earth, and all the birds of heaven, fell down and worshipped them, petitioning them, and obeying them in everything.
89:41 Then those three (Thom. 6:2), who were clothed in white, and who, holding me by my hand, had before caused me to ascend, while the hand of him who spoke held me; raised me up, and placed me in the midst of the sheep, before the Judgement took place (ch. 1:6).
89:42 The sheep were all white, with wool long and pure. Then all who had been assembled in that house and had perished, and been destroyed; every beast of the field, and every bird of heaven; while the Lord of the sheep rejoiced with great joy, because all that remained were righteous, and had come back again to His dwelling (Luke 15:24, 32).
89:43 And I saw that they laid down the sword which had been given to the sheep, and returned it to His house, sealing it up in the presence of the Lord.
89:44 All the sheep were inclosed in that house (New Jerusalem), and it did not contain them; and the (spiritual) eyes of all were open, gazing on the good One (Matt. 19:17), nor was there one among them who did not behold Him (Rev. 1:7).
89:45 I likewise perceived that the house was large, wide, and extremely full. I saw, too, that a white cow was BORN (second coming - new body - Gen. 49:10, 22-24; Rev. 12:5), whose horns were great; and that all the beasts of the field and all the birds of heaven, were alarmed at him (the Elect One - Isa. 42:1), and entreated him at all times (ch. 20:5; Ps. 72).
89:46 Then I saw that the nature of all of them was changed, and that they became white cows (Isa. 32:15; Eze. 39:29; Acts 2:17-21; 1 Cor. 15:22-28).
89:47 And that the First (the Elect One), who was in the midst of them, became a Word, and that Word (John 1:1-5, 14) became a large white bull, upon the head of which were great and black horns.
89:48 While the Lord of the sheep rejoiced over them, and over all the cows.
89:49 I lay down in the midst of them: I awoke; and saw the whole. This is the vision which I saw, lying down and waking. Then I blessed the Lord of Righteousness, and gave glory to Him.
89:50 Afterwards I wept abundantly, nor did my tears cease, so that I became incapable of enduring it. While I was looking on, they descended on account of what I saw; for all was come and gone by; EVERY individual circumstance respecting the conduct of mankind was seen by me.
89:51 In that night I remembered my former dream; and therefore wept and was troubled, because I had seen that vision.
90:1 And now, my son Methuselah, call to me all thy brethren, and assemble for me all the children of thy mother; for a voice calls me (Gen. 5:24) and the spirit is poured out upon me, that I may show you every thing which shall happen to YOU for ever (during your many re-incarnations).
90:2 Then Methuselah went; called to him all his brethren, and assembled his kindred.
90:3 And conversing with all his children in truth,
90:4 Enoch said: Hear, my children, every word of your father, and listen in uprightness to the voice of my mouth; for I would gain your attention, while I address you. My beloved: be attached to integrity, and walk in it.
90:5 Approach not integrity with a double heart (face or tongue); nor be associated with double-minded men (James 1:8); but walk, my children, in righteousness, which will conduct you in good paths; and truth be your companion.
90:6 For I know, that oppression will exist and prevail on Earth; that on Earth great punishment shall in the end take place; and that there shall be a consummation of all iniquity, which shall be cut off from its root, and every fabrication raised by it shall pass away. Iniquity however, shall again be renewed, and consummated on Earth. Every act of crime, and every act of oppression and disrespect, shall be a second time embraced (Matt. 24:37).
90:7 When therefore iniquity, sin, blasphemy, tyranny, and every evil work, shall increase, and when transgression, disrespect, and uncleanness also shall increase, then upon them ALL shall great punishment be inflicted from heaven (1. The Flood; 2. Armageddon; 3. The Reaping).
90:8 The Holy Lord shall go forth in wrath, and upon them all shall great punishment from heaven be inflicted.
90:9 The Holy Lord shall go forth in wrath, and with punishment, that He may execute Judgement upon the Earth (Isa. 42).
90:10 In those days oppression shall be cut off from its roots, and inequity, upheld by fraud (ch. 62:9; James 5:4), shall be eradicated, perishing from under heaven.
90:11 Every place of strength shall be surrendered with its inhabitants; with fire it shall be burnt. They shall be brought from every part of the Earth, and be cast into a judgement of fire. They shall perish in wrath, and by a powerful Judgement for ever (Armageddon, Joel 2:30).
90:12 Righteousness shall be raised up from slumber; and Wisdom shall be raised up, and conferred upon them (Isa. 42:3-4).
90:13 Then shall the roots of inequity be cut off (ch. 62:9); sinners perish by the sword; and blasphemers cut off.
90:14 Those who meditate oppression, and those who blaspheme, by the sword shall perish.
90:15 And now, my children, I will describe and point out to you The Way of Righteousness and The Path of Oppression.
90:16 I will again point them out to you, that you may know what is to come.
90:17 Hear now, my children, and walk in The Way of Righteousness, but shun that of oppression; for all who walk in the path of inequity shall perish for ever.
91:1 That which was written by Enoch. He wrote all this instruction of Wisdom for every man of dignity, and every judge of the Earth; for all my children who shall dwell upon Earth, and for subsequent generations, conducting themselves uprightly and peaceably.
91:2 Let not your spirit be grieved on account of the times, for The Holy, The Great One, has given days to all (John 14:1).
91:3 Let the righteous man arise from (spiritual) slumber; let him arise, and proceed in The Way of Righteousness, in all its Ways; and let his goings be in goodness and in eternal clemency. Mercy shall be showed to the righteous man; upon him shall be conferred integrity and power for ever. In goodness and in righteousness shall he exist, and shall walk in Everlasting Light; but sin shall perish in eternal darkness, and not be seen from this time forward for evermore (Jer. 31:33-34).
92:1 After this, Enoch began to speak from a Book.
92:2 And Enoch said: Concerning the children of righteousness, concerning the Elect of the world, and concerning the Plant of Righteousness and integrity.
92:3 Concerning these things will I speak, and these things will I explain to you, my children: I who am Enoch. In consequence of that which has been shown to me, from my heavenly vision and from the voice of the holy angels have I acquired Knowledge; and from the Tablet of Heaven (Sura 85:22) have I acquired Understanding.
92:4 Enoch then began to speak from a Book, and said: I have been born the seventh in the first week, while judgement and righteousness wait with patience.
92:5 But after me, in the second week, great wickedness shall arise, and fraud shall spring forth.
92:6 In the end of the first shall take place, that in which mankind shall be safe (The Flood).
92:7 But after it has been completed, iniquity shall grow up; and He shall execute the decree upon sinners.
92:8 Afterwards, in the third week, during its completion, a man (Abraham) by the Plant of Righteous Judgement shall be selected (Gen. 12:1, 6 & 14:18-19); and after him (from his seed) the Plant of Righteousness shall come for ever (Gen. 22:18; John 15:5; Sura 43:61).
92:9 Subsequently, in the fourth week, during its completion, the visions of the holy and the righteous (Prophets) shall be seen, the order of generation after generation shall take place, and an habitation (the Old Covenant/Testament) shall be made for them. Then in the fifth week, during its completion, the House of Glory and of Dominion (second Holy Temple) shall be erected for ever (for the last time - Rev. 21:22).
92:10 After that, in the sixth week, all those who are in it shall be darkened, the hearts of all of them shall be forgetful of Wisdom, and in it shall a Man ascend (Luke 24:51; Sura 4:158).
92:11 And during its completion also he shall burn the House of Dominion with fire (Second Temple destroyed by the Romans - 70 A.D.), and all the race of the elect root shall be dispersed (Matt. 23:37-24:2).
92:12 Afterwards, in the seventh week a perverse generation shall arise; abundant shall be its deeds, and all its deeds perverse. During its completion, the righteous shall be selected (chosen - Matt. 20:16 & 22:14) by the Plant of Everlasting Righteousness (John 15:5); and to them shall be given the sevenfold (complete) doctrine respecting every part of His whole Creation (Rev. 10:7; 2:17).
92:13 Afterwards there shall be another week, the eighth; of righteousness, to which shall be given a sword to execute judgement and justice upon ALL oppressors (Rev. 17:14).
92:14 Sinners shall be delivered up into the hands of the righteous, who during its completion shall acquire habitations by their righteousness; and the house of The Great King shall be established for praises for ever (ch. 89:39, 44). After that, in the ninth week, shall the Judgement of Righteousness be revealed to the whole world (Isa. 42:12).
92:15 Every work of the unGodly shall disappear from the whole Earth; the world shall be marked for destruction; and all men shall be on the lookout for The Way of Righteousness (Deut. 11:28; 31:29; Zech. 8:23).
92:16 And after this, on the seventh day of the tenth week, there shall be an Everlasting Judgement, which shall be executed upon the Watchers; and a spacious eternal heaven shall spring forth in the midst of the angels.
92:17 The former (corrupted and polluted) heaven shall depart and pass away; a new heaven shall appear; and all the celestial powers shine with sevenfold (complete) splendour (again) for ever. Afterwards likewise shall there be many weeks, which shall externally exist in goodness and in righteousness.
92:18 Neither shall sin be named there for ever and for ever (Rev. 21:1; 22:3-5).
92:19 Who is there of all the children of men, capable of hearing the voice of The Holy One without emotion?
92:20 Who is there capable of thinking His thoughts? Who capable of contemplating all the workmanship of heaven? Who of comprehending the deeds of heaven?
92:21 He may behold its animation, but not its spirit. He may be capable of conversing respecting it, but not of ascending to it. He may see all the boundaries of these things, and meditate upon them; but he can make nothing like them.
92:22 Who of all men is able to understand the breadth and length of the Earth?
92:23 By whom have been seen the dimensions of these things? Is it every man who is capable of comprehending the extent of heaven; what its elevation is, and by what it is supported?
92:24 How many are the numbers of the stars; and where all the luminaries remain at rest (Job 38th; 39th chs.)?
93:1 And now let me exhort you, my children, to love righteousness, and to walk in it; for The Way of Righteousness is worthy of acceptation; but the infinite number of (easy) paths of iniquity shall SUDDENLY fail, and be diminished.
93:2 To men of note in their generation the paths of oppression and death are revealed; but they keep far from them, and do not follow them.
93:3 Now, too, let me exhort you who are righteous, not to walk in the paths of evil and oppression, nor in the paths of death (Deut. 30:15,19). Approach them not, that you may not perish; but desire eagerly,
93:4 And choose for yourselves righteousness, and a good (God-fearing) life.
93:5 Walk in The Way of peace, that you may live, and be found worthy. Retain my words in your inmost thoughts, and obliterate them not from your hearts; for I know that sinners counsel men to commit crime craftily. They are not found in every place, nor does every counsel possess a little of them.
93:6 Woe to those who build up inequity and oppression (Isa. 3:15; 5:8), and who lay the foundation of fraud (man-made laws - ch. 62:9); for suddenly shall they be subverted, and never obtain peace.
93:7 Woe to those who build up their houses with crime; for from their very foundations shall they be demolished, and by the sword shall they themselves fall. Those, too, who acquire gold and silver, shall justly and suddenly perish. Woe to you who are rich, for in your riches have you trusted; but from your riches you shall be removed; because you have not remembered The Most High in the days of your prosperity (James 5:1-8).
93:8 You have committed (the crimes of) blasphemy and inequity; and are destined to the Day of the Gushing of Blood (Rev. 14:20), to the Day of Darkness, and to the Day of the Great Judgement.
93:9 This I declare and point out to you, that He Who created you will destroy you.
93:10 When you fall, He will not show you mercy; but your Creator will rejoice over your destruction.
93:11 Let those then, who shall be righteous among you in those days, detest sinners, and the unGodly.
94:1 O that my eyes were clouds of water, that I might weep over you and pour forth my tears like a cloud of water, and rest from the sorrow of my heart!
94:2 Who has permitted you to hate and to transgress? Judgement shall overtake you, ye sinners.
94:3 The righteous shall not fear the wicked; because God will again bring them into your power, that you may avenge yourselves of them according to your pleasure (30 woes follow).
94:4 Woe to you who shall be so bound by curses, that you cannot be released from them; the remedy being far removed from you on account of your sins. Woe to you who recompense your neighbour with evil; for you shall be recompensed according to your works.
94:5 Woe to you, ye false witnesses (liars), you who aggravate iniquity; for you shall suddenly perish.
94:6 Woe to you, ye sinners; for you reject the righteous; for you receive or reject at pleasure those who commit iniquity; and their yoke shall prevail over you.
95:1 Wait in hope, ye righteous; for suddenly shall sinners perish from before you, and you shall execute dominion over them, according to your will.
95:2 In the day of the sufferings of sinners your offspring shall be elevated, and lifted up like eagles. Your nest shall be more exalted than that of the avest; you shall ascend, and enter into the cavities of the earth, and into the clefts of rocks for ever, like hares, from the sight of the unGodly;
95:3 Who shall groan over you, and weep like sirens.
95:4 You shall not fear those who trouble you; for restoration shall be yours (Isa. 42:22); a splendid light shall shine around you, and the voice of tranquillity shall be heard from heaven. Woe to you, sinners; for your wealth makes you resemble holy people (Matt. 24:27-28), but your hearts reproach you, knowing that you are sinners. This word (Book of Enoch) shall testify against you, for the remembrance of crime.
95:5 Woe to you who feed upon the glory of the corn, and drink the strength of the root of the spring, and in the pride of your power tread down the humble (Isa. 3:15).
95:6 Woe to you who drink water (man's teachings) at all times; for suddenly shall you be recompensed, consumed, and withered, because you have forsaken the Fountain of Life (John 4:13-14).
95:7 Woe to you who act iniquitously, fraudulently (by man-made laws - ch. 62:9), and blasphemously; there shall be a remembrance against you for evil.
95:8 Woe to you, ye powerful, who with power strike down righteousness; for the day of your destruction shall come; while at that very time many and good days shall come to the righteous, even at the period of your Judgement.
96:1 The righteous are confident that sinners will be disgraced, and perish in The Day of Iniquity.
96:2 You shall yourselves be conscious of it; for The Most High will remember your destruction, and the angels shall rejoice over it. What will you do, ye sinners, and where will you fly in The Day of Judgement, when you shall hear the words of the prayer of the righteous?
96:3 You are not like them who in this respect witness against you; you are associates of Satan.
96:4 In those days shall the prayers of the righteous come up before the Lord. When the day of your Judgement shall arrive; and every circumstance of your iniquity be related before the great and The Holy One.
96:5 Your faces shall be covered with shame; while every deed, strengthened by crime, shall be rejected.
96:6 Woe unto you, sinners, who in the midst of the sea, and on dry land, are those against whom an evil record exists. Woe to you who squander silver and gold, not obtained in The Way of righteousness, and say: We are rich, possess wealth, and we have acquired every thing which we desire (Sura 3:181).
96:7 Now then will we do whatsoever we are disposed to do; for we have amassed silver; our barns are full, and the husbandmen of our families are like much water.
96:8 Like water shall your falsehood pass away; for your wealth will not be permanent, but shall suddenly ascend from you because you have obtained it all inequitously; to extreme denunciation shall you be delivered up.
96:9 And now I swear to you, ye crafty, as well as ignorant ones; that you, often contemplating the Earth, you who are men, put elegance upon you more than married women, and both together more so than unmarried ones, everywhere arraying youselves in majesty, in magnificence, in authority, and in silver: but gold, purple, honour, and wealth, like water, flow away.
96:10 Enlightenment therefore and Wisdom are not theirs. And in it shall they perish, together with their riches, and with all their glory, and with their honours;
96:11 While with disgrace, with slaughter, and in extreme penury, shall their spirits be thrust into a furnace of fire (Rev. 17th and 18th chs.; 20:15).
96:12 I have sworn to you, ye sinners, that neither mountain nor hill has been nor should be a servant to woman (Gen. 3:16-17 - women's liberation CONDEMNED).
96:13 Neither in this way has your crime been sent down upon Earth (1st COMMANDMENT), but men of their own heads have invented it; and greatly shall those who give it (women's liberation) efficiency be CURSED.
96:14 Barrenness (infertility) shall not be previously inflicted on woman; but on account of the work of her hands shall she die childless (as a punishment - Deut. 28:18).
96:15 I have sworn to you, ye sinners, by the Holy and The Great One; that all your evil deeds are disclosed in the heaven; and that NONE of your oppressive acts are concealed and secret (Sura 2:140).
96:16 Think not in your minds, neither say in your hearts, that every crime is not manifested and seen. In heaven it is DAILY written down before The Most High. Henceforwards shall it be manifested; for every act of oppression which you commit shall be daily recorded (Sura 83:7), until the period of your condemnation.
96:17 Woe to you, ye ignorant ones, for you shall perish in your ignorance. To the wise you will not listen, and that which is good shall not find you.
96:18 Now therefore know that you are destined to The Day of Destruction; nor hope that sinners shall live; but in process of time you shall go on and die (Eze. 18:4); for you are not marked for redemption (Eph. 1:5);
96:19 But are destined to the Day of the Great Judgement, to the Day of Distress, and to extreme disgrace of your souls (the Being part of a human+Being).
96:20 Woe to you, ye obdurate in heart, who commit crime, and feed on blood. Whence is it that you feed on good things, drink, and are full? Is it not because your Lord, The Most High, has abundantly supplied every good thing upon Earth? To you there shall not be peace.
96:21 Woe to you who love the deeds of iniquity. Why do you hope for that which is good (Gal. 6:7)? Know that you shall be given up into the hands of the righteous; who shall cut off your necks (Sura 8:12), slay you, and show you no compassion (Ps. 149:9).
96:22 Woe to you who rejoice in the trouble of the righteous; for a grave shall not be dug for you (Rev. 11:9).
96:23 Woe to you who frustrate the word of the righteous; for to you there shall be no hope of Life.
96:24 Woe to you who write down the word of falsehood (fiction and lies), and the word of the wicked; for their falsehood they record, that they may hear and not forget folly.
96:25 To them there shall be no peace; but they shall surely die suddenly.
97:1 Woe to them who act disrespectfully, who laud and honour the word of falsehood. You have been lost in perdition (destruction); and have never led a virtuous life.
97:2 Woe to you who change the words of Uprightness (ch. 104:7-8). They transgress against The Everlasting Decree (John 10:35; ch. 104:8-9);
97:3 And cause the heads of those who are not sinners to be trodden down upon the Earth.
97:4 In those days you, O ye righteous, shall have been deemed worthy of having your prayers rise up in remembrance; and shall have deposited them in testimony before the angels, that they might record the sins of sinners in the presence of The Most High.
97:5 In those days the nations shall be overthrown; but the families of the nations shall rise again in the Day of Destruction (John 5:28-29).
97:6 In those days they who become pregnant shall go forth, carry off their children and forsake (abandon) them. Their offspring shall slip from them, and while suckling them they shall forsake them; they shall never return to them, and never instruct their beloved (Matt. 24:19; Sura 22:2).
97:7 Again I swear to you, ye sinners, that crime has been prepared for The Day of Blood, which never ceases.
97:8 They shall worship stones, and engrave golden, silver, and wooden images. They shall worship impure spirits, demons, and every idol, in temples (ch. 46:5); but no help shall be found for them. Their hearts shall become disrespectful through their folly, and their eyes be blinded with the fear of their heart. In their visionary dreams shall they be disrespectful and fear, lying in all their actions (hypocrisy - Matt. 6:5-6; Sura 7:55), and worshipping a stone (Rome and Mecca - Deut. 32:37). Altogether shall they perish (Rev. 18:11-24).
97:9 But in those days blessed shall they be, to whom the Word of Wisdom is delivered; who point out and pursue The Way of The Most High; who walk in The Way of Righteousness (Deut. 31:29), and who act not disrespectfully with the irreverent.
97:10 They shall be saved.
97:11 Woe to you who expand the crime of your neighbour; for in hell-fire shall you be slain.
97:12 Woe to you who lay the foundation (ch. 93:6) of sin and deceit, and who are bitter on Earth; for on it shall you be consumed.
97:13 Woe to you who build your houses by the labour of others (James 5:4), every structure of which is brick, and with the stone of crime; I tell you, that you shall not obtain peace.
97:14 Woe to you who despise the extent of the Everlasting Inheritance (The Covenant) of your fathers, while your souls follow after idols; for to you there shall be no tranquillity.
97:15 Woe to them who commit iniquity, and give aid to blasphemy, who slay their neighbour until The Day of The Great Judgement; for your glory shall fall; malevolence shall he (Satan) put into your hearts, and the spirit (dark energy-force) of his (Satan's) anger shall stir you up, that every one of you may perish by the sword (ch. 61:15; 17:3).
97:16 Then shall all the righteous and the holy remember your crimes.
98:1 In those days shall fathers be struck down with their children in one place; and brethren with their brethren shall fall dead; until a river shall flow from their blood (Rev. 14:20).
98:2 For a man should not restrain his hand from his children, nor from his children's children (Prov. 13:24; 22:15; 29:15); he has been merciful, that he may "kill (with kindness").
98:3 Nor shall the sinner restrain his hand from his honoured brother. From the dawn of day to the setting of the sun they shall be slain. The horse shall wade up to his breast, and the chariot shall sink to its upper part, in the blood of sinners (Rev. 14:19-20).
99:1 In those days the angels shall descend into places of concealment, and gather together in one spot those who have assisted in crime.
99:2 In that day shall The Most High rise up to execute The Great Judgement upon ALL sinners (Eze. 18:4), and to commit the guardianship of all the righteous and holy to the holy angels (Sura 44:54-56), that they may protect them as the apple of an eye, until every evil and every crime be annihilated (five Prophets quoted Enoch's "apple of an eye")(Zech. 2:7-8)
99:3 Whether or not the righteous sleep a deep sleep, wise men shall then truly perceive.
99:4 And the sons of the earth shall understand every word of that Book (Sura 81:10-14), knowing that their riches cannot save them in the ruin of their crimes.
99:5 Woe to you, ye sinners, when you shall be afflicted in The Day of The Great Trouble, on account of (what you have done to) the righteous; you shall be burnt in The Fire; and be recompensed according to your deeds.
99:6 Woe to you, ye perverted in heart, who are watchful to obtain an accurate knowledge of evil, and to discover terrors (scientists). No-one shall assist you.
99:7 Woe to you, ye sinners; for with the words of your mouths, and with the work of your hands, have you acted disrespectfully; in the flame of a blazing fire shall you be burnt (Rev. 20:15).
99:8 And now know ye, that the angels shall inquire into your conduct in heaven; of the sun, the moon, and the stars, shall they inquire respecting your sins; for upon Earth you exercise jurisdiction over the righteous.
99:9 Every cloud shall bear witness against you, the snow, the dew, and the rain; for all of them shall be withheld from you, that they may not descend upon you, nor become subservient to your crimes.
99:10 Now then bring gifts of salutation to the rain; that, not being withheld, it may descend upon you; and to the dew, if it has received from you gold and silver. But when the frost, snow, cold, every snowy wind, and every suffering belonging to them, fall upon you, in those days you will be utterly incapable of standing before them.
100:1 Attentively consider heaven, all ye progeny of heaven (souls/Beings/jinns), and all ye works of The Most High (human+Beings); fear Him, conduct not yourselves criminally before Him (by breaking His Laws and The Covenant).
100:2 If He shut up the windows of heaven, restraining the rain and dew, that it may not descend upon Earth on your account, what will you do?
100:3 And if He sends His wrath upon you, and upon all your deeds, you are not they who can supplicate Him; for you utter against His righteousness great and powerful things. To you there shall be no peace.
100:4 Do you not see the kings of ships, how their vessels are tossed about by the waves, torn to pieces by the winds, and exposed to the greatest peril?
100:5 That they therefore fear, because their whole property is embarked with them on the ocean; and that they forbode evil in their hearts, because it may swallow them up, and they may perish in it?
100:6 Is not the whole sea, all of its waters, and all its commotion, the work of Him, The Most High; of Him Who has sealed up all its exertions, and girded it on every side with sand?
100:7 Is it not at His rebuke dried up, and afraid; while all its fish with every thing contained in it die? And will not you, ye sinners, who are on Earth, fear Him? Is not He the Maker of heaven and Earth, and of all things which are in them? (Job 38th and 39th chs.).
100:8 And Who has given Enlightenment and Wisdom to all that move progressive upon the Earth, and over the sea?
100:9 Are not the commanders of ships terrified at the ocean? And shall not sinners be terrified at The Most High?
101:1 The Most High says that when The Reaping takes place NO person that sins will be exempted from the Punishment in The Judgement (ch. 45:2, 5; 96:18; Eze. 18:4; 1 John 3:7-10).
102:1 In those days, when He shall cast the calamity of fire upon you, where will you fly, and where will you be safe?
102:2 And when He sends forth His word against you, are you not spared, and terrified?
102:3 All the luminaries are agitated with great fear; and all the Earth is spared, while it trembles, and suffers anxiety.
102:4 All of the angels fulfill the commands received by them, and are desirous of being concealed from the presence of the great Glory; while the children of the earth are alarmed and troubled.
102:5 But you, ye sinners, are for ever accursed; to you there shall be no peace.
102:6 Fear not, ye souls of the righteous; but wait with patient hope for the day of your death in righteousness. Grieve not, as though your souls descend in great trouble, with groaning, lamentation, and sorrow, to the receptacle of the dead. In your lifetime your flesh has not found according to your goodness, but in the period of your existence sinners have existed; in the period of abomination and of correction.
102:7 Lest when you die, sinners say concerning you: Behold, like us, they expire in sorrow and in darkness. What advantage have they over us? Henceforward are we equal (Sura 4:95; 32:18). What will they obtain, and what behold for ever? For behold they are dead; and never will they henceforward for ever perceive the light. I say unto you, ye sinners: You have been satiated with meat and drink, with human plunder and pillage, with sin, and with the acquisition of wealth and with the sight of pleasant days. You perish, and are as if you were not, while your souls descend in trouble to the receptacle of the dead. Have you not marked the righteous, how their end is in peace? For no oppression is found in them even to the day of their death.
103:1 But now I swear to you, ye righteous, by the greatness of His splendour and His glory; by His illustrious Kingdom and by His Majesty, to you I swear, that I comprehend this secret (ch. 40:2); that I have read The Tablet of Heaven (Sura 85:22), have seen the writing of The Holy One, and have discovered what is written, and impressed on it, concerning you.
103:2 I have seen that all goodness, joy, and glory has been prepared for you, and been written down for the spirits (Beings) of them who died in righteousness and in much goodness. To you it shall be given in return for your troubles; and your portion of happiness (joy) shall far exceed the portion of the living.
103:3 The spirits of you who die in righteousness shall exist and rejoice. Your spirits shall rejoice; and your remembrance shall be before the face of The Mighty One from incarnation to incarnation (ch. 90:1; John 9:1). Nor shall you now fear disgrace.
103:4 Woe to you, sinners, when you die in your sins; and they, who are like you, say respecting you, Blessed are these sinners. They have seen all their days; and now they die in goodness and in wealth. Distress and slaughter they saw not while alive; in honour they die; nor ever in their lifetime did Judgement overtake them.
103:5 But has it not been shown to them, that, when to the receptacle of the dead their souls shall be made to descend, their evil deeds shall become their greatest torment? Into darkness, into the snares, and into the flame, which shall burn to The Great Judgement, shall their spirits (Beings) enter; and The Great Judgement shall be for every generation, even for ever.
103:6 Woe to you; for to you there shall be no peace. Neither can you say to the righteous, and to the good who are alive: In the days of our trouble have we been afflicted; every species of trouble have we seen, and many evil things have found.
103:7 Our spirits have been consumed, lessened, and diminished.
103:8 We have perished; nor has there been a possibility of help for us in word or in deed; we have found none, but have been tormented and destroyed.
103:9 We have not expected to see life day after day.
103:10 We hoped indeed to have been the head (Deut. 28:13).
103:11 But we have become the tail (Deut. 28:44). We have been afflicted, when we have exerted ourselves; but we have been food for sinners and the unGodly; their yoke has been heavy upon us.
103:12 Those have exercised dominion over us who detest and who goad us (ch. 58); and to those who hate us we have humbled our neck; but they have shown no compassion towards us.
103:13 We have been desirous of escaping from them, that we might fly away and be at rest (Ps. 55:6); but we have found no place to which we could fly, and be secure from them. We have sought for asylum with princes (of the church) in our distress, and have cried out to those who were devouring us; but our cry has not been regarded, nor have they been disposed to hear our voice (Eze. 34; Rev. 17; note well Sura 17:5-7, Babylonians and Romans are the same race);
103:14 But rather to assist those who plunder and devour us; those who diminish us, and hide their oppression; who remove not their yoke from us (Matt. 23:4), but devour, exhaust, and slay us; who conceal our slaughter, and bear not in mind that they have lifted up their hands against us (2 Cor. 11:20-30).
104:1 I swear to you, ye righteous, that in heaven the angels record your goodness before the glory of The Mighty One.
104:2 Wait with patience and hope; for formerly you have been disgraced with evil and with affliction; but now shall you shine like the luminaries of heaven (Luminous Beings - Matt. 13:43). You shall be seen, and the gates of heaven shall be opened to you. Your cries have cried for Judgement; and it has appeared to you: for an account of all your suffering shall be required from the priests, and from every one who has assisted your plunders (ch. 58; 59:29; Isa. 3:15; Eze. 34; Dan. 12:3; Rev. 17; Sura 17:5-7).
104:3 Wait with patient hope; do not relinquish your confidence; for great joy shall be yours, like that of the angels in heaven. Conduct yourselves as you may (exercising your free-will), still you shall not be concealed in The Day of The Great Judgement. You shall not be found like sinners; and eternal condemnation shall be far from you during every generation of the world.
104:4 And now fear not, ye righteous, when you see sinners strong and clever in their ways.
104:5 Be not associates with them; but keep yourselves at a distance from their oppression; you be associated with The Host of Heaven. You, ye sinners, say: All our transgressions shall not be taken account of, and be recorded. But all your transgressions shall be recorded DAILY (Rev. 20:12 & Suras 50:16-18 & 83:7-10).
104:6 I will show you that Light and Darkness, day and night, behold ALL your transgressions. Be not disrespectful in your thoughts; lie not; surrender not the Word of Uprightness; lie not against The Word of The Holy and The Mighty One; glorify not your idols; for all your lying and every bit of your disrespect is not for righteousness, but for great crime.
104:7 Now will I point out a mystery (Rev. 17:5): Many sinners shall turn and transgress against The Word of Uprightness (ch. 97:2; Isa. 33:15; 2 Thess. 2:7-12; Sura 32:23).
THE INCORRECT WRITING OF GOD'S WORDS PROPHESIED:-
104:8 They shall speak evil things; they shall utter falsehood (ch. 97:2); create a great creation (false religions and religious traditions and technology); and compose books of their own words (books of man-made laws; books of the religious traditions of their fathers; novels; etc.; etc.; etc. - ch. 68:13).
HOW TO RECOGNISE AND CORRECT THE MISTAKES:-
But when they shall write correctly all My words in their own languages,
104:9 They (My words) shall neither change nor diminish (Mark 13:31; Matt. 5:17-19); but when all shall be written correctly; ALL, which from the first I have uttered concerning them shall concur (John 10:35; Sura 15:9).
104:10 Another secret also I point out. To the righteous and the wise shall be given Books of joy, of integrity, and of great Wisdom. To them shall Books be given (Rev. 2:17), in which they shall believe (and Live by);
104:11 And in which they shall rejoice. And all the righteous shall be rewarded, who from these (Books) shall acquire the Knowledge of The Straight Way.
PART 2
1 In those days, saith the Lord, they shall call to the children of the earth, and make them listen to their Wisdom. Show them that you are their leaders (Isa. 26:9; Ps. 149:9; Jude 14, 15);
2 And that recompense shall take place over the whole Earth; for We will for ever mix with them in The Way of Righteousness in their lives. Peace shall be yours. Rejoice, in The Truth, children of uprightness.
105:1 After days, my son Methuselah took a wife for his son Lamech (Gen. 5:26-29; Luke 3:36-38).
105:2 She became pregnant by him, and brought forth a child, the flesh of which was white as snow and red as a rose; the hair of whose head was white like wool, and long; and whose eyes were beautiful. When he opened them, he illuminated all the house, like the sun; the whole house abounded with light (Sura 44:54).
105:3 And when he was taken from the hand of the midwife, opening also his mouth, he spoke to The Lord of Righteousness. Then Lamech his father was afraid of him; and flying away came to his own father Methuselah, and said: I have begotten a son, a substituted son. He is not human; but, resembling the offspring of the angels of heaven; is of a different nature from ours, being altogether unlike to us (Rev. 1:14).
105:4 His eyes are bright like the rays of the sun; his countenance glorious, and he looks not as if he belonged to me, but to the angels (Sura 44:54).
105:5 I am afraid, lest something miraculous should take place on Earth in his days.
105:6 And now, my father, let me entreat and request you to go to our progenitor Enoch, and to learn from him the truth; for his residence is with the angels.
105:7 When Methuselah heard the words of his son, he came to me at the extremities of the Earth; for he had been informed that I was there; and he cried out.
105:8 I heard his voice, and went to him, saying: Behold I am here, my son, since thou art come to me.
105:9 He answered and said: On account of a great event have I come to thee; and on account of a thing difficult to be comprehended have I approached thee.
105:10 And now, my father, hear me; for to my son Lamech a child has been born, who resembles not him; and whose nature is not like the nature of man. His colour is whiter than snow; he is redder than the rose; the hair of his head is whiter than white wool; his eyes are like the rays of the sun; and when he opened them he illuminated the whole house.
105:11 Also, when he was taken from the hand of the midwife, he opened his mouth, and blessed The Lord of Heaven (like Jesus did - Sura 19:29-31).
105:12 His father Lamech feared, and fled to me, believing not that the child belonged to him, but that he resembled the angels of heaven. And behold I am come to thee, that thou mightest point out to me the truth.
105:13 Then I, Enoch, answered and said: The Lord will effect a new thing upon the Earth. This I have seen in a vision, and explained. I have shown thee that in the generation of Jared my father, those who were from heaven (the Watchers - 12:5 & Gen. 6:2) disregarded the Word of the Lord. Behold they committed crimes; laid aside their class, and intermingled with women (and were corrupted by them as Adam was - see 12:6 then Gen. 3:17 and also Rev. 14:4). With them also they transgressed, and begot children.
105:14 A great destruction therefore shall come upon all the Earth; a deluge, a great destruction, shall take place in one year.
105:15 This child which is born to you shall survive on the Earth, and three of his sons shall be saved with him. When ALL mankind who are on Earth shall die (Matt. 24:37), he shall be safe (and those very few that are "Chosen" and with him).
105:16 And his posterity shall beget on the Earth giants, not carnal, but spiritual. Upon Earth shall a great punishment be inflicted, and it shall be washed free from all corruption (by The Flood). Now therefore inform thy son Lamech that he who is born is his child in truth; and he shall call his name Noah, for he shall be to you a survivor. He and his children shall be saved from the corruption which shall take place in the world; from all the sin and from all the iniquity which shall be consummated on Earth in his days. Afterwards shall greater disrespect take place than that which had been consummated before on the Earth (Luke 17:26-30); for I am acquainted with holy secrets, which the Lord Himself has discovered and explained to me; and which I have read in the Tablets of Heaven.
105:17 In them I saw it written, that generation after generation shall transgress, until a righteous race shall arise (Sura 3:104); until transgression and crime perish from off the Earth; until all goodness come upon it.
105:18 And now, my son, go, tell Lamech.
105:19 That the child which is born is his child in truth; and that there is no deception.
105:20 When Methuselah heard the word of his father Enoch, who had shown him every secret thing, he returned with Understanding, and called the name of that child Noah; because he was to console the Earth on account of all its destruction.
105:21 Another Book which Enoch wrote for his son Methuselah, and for those who should come after him, and preserve their state of life in The Latter Days. You, who have laboured, shall wait in those days, until the evildoers are consumed, and the power of the guilty be annihilated. Wait, until sin pass away; for their names shall be blotted out of the holy books (Rev. 3:5), their seed shall be destroyed, and their souls (Beings) slain. They shall cry out and lament in the invisible waste, and in The Fire shall they burn, where there is no Earth.
There I perceived, as it were, a cloud which could not be seen through, for from the depth of it I was unable to look upwards. I beheld also a flame of fire blazing bright, and, as it were, glittering mountains whirled around, and agitated from side to side.
105:22 Then I inquired of one of the holy angels who was with me, and said: What is this impressive object? For it is not heaven, but a flame of fire alone which blazes; and in it there is clamour of exclamation, of woe, and of great suffering.
105:23 He said: There, into that place which thou beholdest, shall be thrust the souls (Beings) of sinners and blasphemers; of those who shall do evil, and who shall pervert all which God has spoken by the mouth of the Prophets, all that which they ought to do (ch. 97:2; 104:7-8). For respecting these things there shall be writings and impressions above in heaven, that the angels may read them, and know what shall happen both to sinners and to the souls (Beings) of the humble; to those who have suffered [whilst] inside their bodies (2 Cor. 5:8-10), but have been rewarded by God; who have been injuriously treated by wicked men; who have loved God; who have been attached neither to gold nor silver, nor to any good thing in the world, but have given their bodies to torment (John 16:33; Rev. 7:14);
105:24 To those who from the time they were, have not been covetous of Earthly riches; but have regarded themselves as a breath passing away (John 3:8).
105:25 And this have they kept; and much has the Lord tried (and tested) them (Sura 29:2-3); and their souls (Beings) have been found pure, that they might bless His name. All their blessings have I related in a Book; and He has rewarded them; for they have been found to love heaven with an everlasting aspiration (ch. 39:8). God has said: While they have been trodden down by wicked men, they have heard from them revilings and blasphemies; and have been disgracefully treated, while they were blessing Me. And now will I call the souls (Beings) of the righteous from the Generation of Light (Thom. 8:8), and will change those who have been born in darkness; who have not [whilst] inside their bodies been recompensed with glory, as their faith may have merited.
105:26 I will bring them into the splendid Light of those who love My holy name; and I will place each of them on a throne of glory (Sura 15:47), of glory peculiarly his own, and they shall be at rest during eternity (Sura 15:48). Righteous is the Judgement of God (Matt. 19:28);
105:27 For to the faithful [Elect/Chosen] shall He give faith in the home of upright ways (Isa. 33:15-17 & Sura 5:85-88). They shall see those, who having been born in darkness, felt at home in it (2 Cor. 5:6), so into darkness shall be cast; while the righteous shall be at rest. Sinners shall cry out, beholding them (Luke 16:19-31); while they exist in splendour (Sura 9:72 & John 14:2-3) and proceed forward to the days and periods written down for them.
Here ends the vision of Enoch the Prophet. May the benediction of his prayer, and the gift of his appointed period, be with his beloved! Amen.JAH
