Autorenporträt
Enoch, a notable figure in ancient religious texts, is traditionally regarded as the great-grandfather of Noah and is famously described as one of the few individuals who "walked with God" and was taken by Him without experiencing death. According to the Book of Genesis, Enoch lived for 365 years, a symbolic number suggesting completeness, and his life was marked by profound closeness to God. This unique relationship set Enoch apart, elevating him as a model of faith and righteousness in Judeo-Christian traditions.The Book of Enoch, an ancient Jewish apocalyptic text attributed to him, expands on Enoch's life and mission, offering detailed accounts of his journeys through the heavens and his role as an intermediary between God and humankind. In the text, Enoch witnesses divine mysteries, encounters angelic beings, and records prophecies concerning humanity's fate. The book's exploration of themes like the fall of angels, cosmic judgment, and visions of the future significantly influenced early Jewish and Christian thought, though it is excluded from most biblical canons except the Ethiopian Orthodox Church.Enoch's legacy endures across religious traditions, with references in the New Testament and the Quran, where he is sometimes associated with the prophet Idris. In Christian theology, Enoch is revered as a precursor to later figures who were similarly close to God, and his ascension without death foreshadows concepts of eternal life. His story continues to be a source of fascination, representing the mysteries of divine wisdom and the potential for humanity to attain closeness with the divine.
