Enoch & Pseudepigrapha

About this shelf

“Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied…” — the New Testament itself quotes this literature (Jude 1:14–15), yet nearly every Bible excludes it. The Book of Enoch survived complete only in Ge‘ez, preserved for centuries by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church, while Aramaic fragments among the Dead Sea Scrolls prove the Watchers, the Nephilim, and Enoch’s tours of heaven were read a millennium earlier at Qumran. Around 1 Enoch this shelf gathers the pseudepigrapha — Jubilees’ retold Genesis, apocalypses of Baruch and Ezra, testaments of the patriarchs — the books written between the Testaments that shaped the world Jesus spoke into.

Each is a complete, unabridged edition in clear modern English — faithful to the scholarly source translations, readable today. Members read online, listen to the full audiobooks, and order print at our true printing cost. Related shelves: Gnostic & Nag Hammadi, More Apocryphal Texts.
