Sinossi:
The Book of Enoch is an apocryphal text of Jewish origin whose definitive version dates back to the first
century BC, reached today in full in a version in language Ge’ez (ancient Ethiopian language), hence
the name Ethiopian Enoch. The first book of Enoch is an Old Testament apocrypha, not included in the
Hebrew Bible, it is not part of the Bible in greek called the LXX (Septuagint) and is not part of, at least
today, even in the Christian Bible. Jewish historians Flavius Josephus and Philo of Alexandria does not
mention him among the canonical books of Judaism in the first century AD, although we know that in
the past was often used in the Jewish world and even the early fathers of the Christian Church, there are
indeed some similarities between steps and idioms characteristic of the New Testament, and this book. In
medieval times they are lost mysteriously traces except for a few rare quote, like those of Syncellus and
Cedrenus of the ninth century it was no longer used, and 1 Enoch remained an unknown and mysterious
text up to ‘700. Tradition says the patriarch Enoch author of well three hundred sixty-six books. The most
famous are the first book of Enoch, the second book of Enoch (also called Book of Secrets of Enoch) and
the third book of Enoch (Enoch or the Apocalypse).
