In its entirety, The Book of Enoch is made up of five books - The Book of Watchers, Book of Parables, The Astronomical Book, The Dream Visions, and The Epistles of Enoch containing some 100 chapters. These chapters tell the story of the 7th patriarch in the Book of Genesis Enoch, the father of Methuselah and grandfather of Noah, the same Noah in the biblical story of Noah’s Ark. Yet, this was not the biblical story of Noah’s Ark. In fact, the Book of Enoch provides an entirely different recounting of the events leading up to the Great Flood of Noah’s time, that is, a completely different doctrinal history. It tells a story of the Watchers, explained in biblical terms to be fallen angels, sent to earth to watch over humans at some undefined and ancient point in time. Unfortunately, far from merely watching humans, these Watchers became infatuated by human women, and in short order, began to engage in deprave sexual acts with them. The Book of Enoch tells of the children born through this interbreeding between Watchers and humans, called the Nephilim. These Nephilim were as described: “giants and savages that endangered and pillaged humanity,“ or, said another way, “supernatural, man-eating giants.“ Angered with what the Watchers had done, those described as gods chained them in a subterranean prison deep within the earth. Enoch became the go-between gods and imprisoned Watchers. Zep Tepi is a historical period that can be traced back to a specific date, 3,642 BC. Enoch as he is known in heaven as he is known in the Bible, is Thoth as he is known among the pagan world, but Enoch is known to GOD, as the angel Metatron, Prince of the Divine Presence, Prince of Torah; the angel, Prince of Wisdom; the angel, Prince of Understanding; the angel, Prince of Glory; the angel, Prince of the Palace; the angel, Prince of Kings; the angel, Prince of Rulers; the angel, Prince of the exalted, lofty, great and honored Princes, who are in heaven and earth, said, •“YHWH the God of Israel is my witness that when I revealed this secret to Moses, all the armies of the height, in every heaven, were angry with me. They said to me, •’Why are you revealing this secret to mankind, born of woman, blemished, unclean, defiled by blood and impure flux, men who excrete putrid drops—that secret1 by which heaven and earth were created, the sea and the dry land, mountains and hills, rivers and springs, Gehinnom, fire and hail, the garden of Eden and the tree of life? By it Adam was formed, the cattle and the beasts of the field, the birds of heaven and the fish of the sea, Behemoth and Leviathan, the unclean creatures and reptiles, the creeping things of the sea and the reptiles of the deserts, Torah, wisdom, knowledge, thought, the understanding of things above, and the fear of heaven. Why are you revealing it to flesh and blood?’“ I said to them, “Because the Omnipresent One has given me authority from the high and exalted throne, from which all the sacred names proceed with fiery lightnings, with brilliant sparks“ and flaming hasmallim.“ *But their minds were not set at ease until the Holy One, blessed be he, rebuked them and drove them out of his presence with a rebuke, saying to them, “I wished, I desired, I ordered it, and entrusted it to Metatron my servant alone, because he is unique among all the denizens of the heights. • Metatron brought it out from my storehouses and committed it to Moses/ and Moses to Joshua, Joshua to the Elders, the Elders to the Prophets, the Prophets to the Men of the Great Synagogue, the Men of the Great Synagogue to Ezra the Scribe, Ezra the Scribe to Hillel the Elder, Hillel the Elder to R. Abbahu, R. Abbahu to R. Zira, R. Zira to the Men of Faith, and the Men of Faith to the Faithful—so that they should use it to admonish men and to heal the diseases that befall the world, The builder of the Great Pyramid was known by different names as the world was conscious of him: In Egypt he was known as Thoth In Babylon he was known as Nebo, In Greece he was known as Hermes In Rome he was known as Mercury To the Celtics he was known as Merlin And give them the books in your handwriting, and they will read them and they will acknowledge me as the Creator of everything. And they will understand that there is no other God except myself. And let them distribute the books in your handwriting, children to children and family to family and kinsfolk to kinsfolk. •And I will give you, Enoch, my mediator, my archistratig, Michael, on account of your handwritings and the handwritings of your fathers—Adam and Sith and Enos and Kainan and Maleleil and Ared your father. And they will not be destroyed until the final age. So I have commanded my angels, Ariukh and Pariukh, whom I have appointed on the earth as their guardians, and I have commanded the seasons, so that they might preserve them so that they might not
