What do the ancient Enoch traditions say about the Watchers, the giants and the world before the Flood? This Library of Alexandria volume brings together 1, 2 and 3 Enoch, the surviving fragments of the Book of Giants, and companion writings.
1 Enoch traces the fall of the Watchers and explores visions of judgment. 2 Enoch follows Enoch through the heavens in the Slavonic tradition. 3 Enoch turns to the Hebrew tradition and its account of Enoch’s transformation. The Book of Giants offers a different perspective on the giants and their fate.
Read the accounts side by side to see where they converge and where each takes a different path. An English-language collection for readers interested in ancient Jewish literature, biblical apocrypha and the history of apocalyptic writing.
