Enoch (or Enoch) - חנוך, Chanoch or Hanokh - is the name given to one of the most peculiar and mysterious biblical characters in Scripture. He was born, according to Jewish writings, in the seventh generation after Adam, being the son of Jared, and the father of Methuselah.

Enoch is the subject of many Jewish and Christian traditions. He was considered the author of the Book of Enoch and also called Enoch the scribe of the judgment.

According to the Hebrew written tradition called Tanakh, reported in Genesis, chapter 5, verses 22-24, Enoch would have been taken by God so that he would not experience death and would certainly be spared the wrath of the flood:

“And Enoch walked with God, after he begat Methuselah, three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters. And all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years. And Enoch walked with God; and he did not appear again, because God took him for himself. ”

There are two extraordinary aspects in Enoch's account, focused on these verses, that have not been focused on in other generations: the text's indications that he “walked with God” and the fact that, supposedly, he would not have died, because “God for himself took it ”. These accounts were the origin of many fables and midrashim (more in-depth rabbinic studies) by Jewish scholars over the centuries. Many of them were very upset by the fact that Enoch "only" lived 365 years, a short life span for his time, according to the book of Genesis.

There are also pseudo-epigraphic apocryphal books about this biblical character: "Book of Enoch I" and "Book of Enoch II", which are part of the canon of some religious groups, mainly Christians in Ethiopia ", but which were rejected by Christians, for not being inspired by the Holy Spirit and the Hebrews, for being particularly uncomfortable from a political point of view, however, the epistle of Judas in the biblical New Testament makes an express mention of the Book of Enoch, making a brief quote in verses 14 and 15 of its only chapter.According to The Book of Enoch: with a comparative study of the main translations, there are several books attributed to Enoch, three of which are the best known: The Book of Enoch (or Ethiopian Enoch or Enoch 1), The Second Book of Enoch (or Slavonic Enoch) and The Third Book of Enoch (or Hebrew Enoch). The best known is the first one, which is included in the Ethiopian bible, is considered the authentic by the Jews of Ethiopia and was considered authentic by the Jews until about the year 200, having been part of the Hebrew biblical corpus until that time and having been removed by a rabbi, for several reasons, including political. About 200 years later, St. Jerome, in charge of creating the Christian Bible, was based on the "Hebrew truth" principle, which meant that books considered authentic by Jews (from the Old Testament) were authentic. For this reason, the Book of Enoch fell by the wayside in the West, until it was found more than a thousand years later. The Book of Enoch (Enoch 1) was translated and published in Brazil for the first time in 1982. The Book of Enoch is extremely controversial, as it addresses sexual and racial issues. One of the controversies is that of the fallen angels who descended from the heavens to have sex with women they considered attractive and spawned giants that destroyed the Earth. Another controversy is that according to one passage, Adam and Eve had black children and Adam was white, which indicates that Eve was black.

According to the Genesis account of the age of the patriarchs, Seven and his sons still lived when Enoch was taken by God, as well as Methuselah and Lamech.
