Enoch93.118
This proper name identifies the antediluvian patriarch Enoch, used in Luke's genealogy tracing Jesus' line through Enoch — "the son of Methuselah, the son of Enoch, the son of Jared" (Luke 3:37), and of the writer of Hebrews' commendation of Enoch's faith, by which he was taken up so that he would not see death — "By faith Enoch was taken up so that he would not see death" (Hebrews 11:5).

(WH Ἑνώχ, see their Introductory § 408) (Ἀνωχος, Ἀνωχου, ὁ, Josephus, Antiquities 1, 3, 4; Hebrew חֲנוך initiated or initiating (cf. B. D., under the word)), Enoch, father of Methuselah (Lk 3:37); on account of his extraordinary piety taken up alive by God to heaven (Gen 5:18-24; Heb 11:5; (cf. Sir. 44:16; Josephus, Antiquities 1, 3, 4)); in the opinion of later Jews the most renowned antediluvian prophet; to whom, toward the end of the second century before Christ, was falsely attributed an apocalyptical book which was afterward 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 toward 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. Lipsius 1851); it was translated into English by R. Laurence (lst edition 1821; 3rd edition 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 (Lipsius 1853); each of the last two translators added a commentary. From this book is taken the 'prophecy' in Jude 1:14f; (cf. B. D. (American edition), also Dict. of Chris. Biog., under the word Enoch, The Book of).
