Book of the Secrets of Enoch - Structure and Secrets of the Universe

Описание: The Second Book of Enoch, also known as the "Book of the Secrets of Enoch," The exact date of its composition is unknown, but scholars believe it was written sometime between the 1st century BCE and the 3rd century CE. The Second Book of Enoch falls into the apocalyptic genre, featuring a visionary journey. Enoch, the patriarch from Genesis, is taken on a celestial adventure through ten heavens by angels. During this journey, he witnesses various wonders and receives divine knowledge. Unlike the first Book of Enoch, which delves more into angels and watchers, the Second Book focuses heavily on the structure and secrets of the cosmos. Enoch encounters different celestial realms, each with its own inhabitants and characteristics.

The figure of Melchizedek, a mysterious priest-king from the Hebrew Bible, takes on a more prominent role in the Second Book of Enoch. He is portrayed as a powerful angelic being who guides Enoch through the heavens. The Second Book of Enoch was lost for centuries, only surviving in fragments. The full text wasn't rediscovered and published until the late 19th century, based on Slavonic manuscripts.
