Ἐνώχ [WH Ἑνώχ, see their Intr. § 4087, (“Avayos, του, 6, Joseph. antt. 1, 3,4; Hebr. ΠΤ initiated or initiating, [ef. B. 1). s.v.]), Znoch, father of Methuselah (Lk. iii. 37); on account of his extraordinary piety taken up alive by God to heaven (Gen. v. 18-24; Heb. xi. 5; [οἷ Sir. xliv. 16; Joseph. antt. 1, 3, 4]); in the opinion of later Jews the most renowned antediluvian prophet; to whom, towards the end of the second century before Christ, was falsely attributed an apocalyptical book which was afterwards combined with fragments of other apocryphal books, and preserved by the Fathers in Greek fragments and entire in an Ethiopic translation. This translation, having been found among the Abyssinian Christians towards the close of the last century, has been edited by Richard Laurence, archbishop of Cashel (“ Libri Henoch versio aethiopica.”” Oxon. 1838), and by A. Dillmann (“ Liber Henoch, aethiopice.” Lips. 1851); it was translated into English by R. Laurence (1st ed. 1821; 3d ed. 1838 [reprinted (Scribners, N. Y.) 1883; also (with notes) by G. H. Schodde (Andover, 1882) ], into German by A. G. Hoffman (Jen. 1833-38, 2 vols.) and by A. Dillmann (Lips. 1853) ; each of the last two translators added a commentary. From this book is taken the ‘ prophecy’ in Jude 14 sq.; [ef. B.D. (Am. ed.), also Dict. of Chris. Biog., s. ν. Enoch, The Book of].* ef, see ἐκ.
