Sinopsis

Before the Flood, two hundred angels descended upon Mount Hermon—and the world was changed forever.

The Book of Enoch is one of the most remarkable surviving works of ancient Jewish apocalyptic literature. Through visions of fallen angels, forbidden knowledge, divine judgement and journeys beyond the boundaries of the earthly world, it reveals a vast spiritual realm hidden from humankind.

This illustrated edition presents the complete 108 chapters of 1 Enoch in the classic translation by biblical scholar R. H. Charles. Its dramatic prophecies and dream visions are accompanied by twenty original full-page illustrations created specifically for this volume. Rendered in a dark, expressive ink-and-graphite style, the artwork brings Enoch’s extraordinary visions to life while preserving the gravity and mystery of the original text.

Within these pages, readers will encounter:

• The descent of the Watchers upon Mount Hermon

• Azazel and the teaching of forbidden arts

• The birth of the giants and the corruption of the earth

• The binding and judgement of the fallen angels

• The Head of Days and the mysterious Son of Man

• The courses of the sun, moon and heavenly luminaries

• The Animal Apocalypse and its symbolic visions
