About this app

First Book of Enoch, also called Ethiopic Book of Enoch, pseudepigraphal work (not included in any canon of scripture) whose only complete extant version is an Ethiopic translation of a previous Greek translation made in Palestine from the original Hebrew or Aramaic.

Enoch, the seventh patriarch in the book of Genesis, was the subject of abundant apocryphal literature, especially during the Hellenistic period of Judaism (3rd century bc to 3rd century ad). At first revered only for his piety, he was later believed to be the recipient of secret knowledge from God. This portrait of Enoch as visionary was influenced by the Babylonian tradition of the 7th antediluvian king, Enmenduranna, who was linked to the sun god and received divine revelations. The story of Enoch reflects many such features of the Babylonian myth.

Ratings and reviews

I like the app for what it is, but there is room for improvement. Firstly, it would be useful to be able to scroll through the audio so I can drag to where I want to start listening from. A +10 seconds and -10 seconds button would be useful. Also, can there be a text version for the 01 - Editor's Preface & Introduction please? It's difficult for me to follow along with so much being said. With the audio slider, it would be nice to see how long the audio is and how many minutes have passed. Thx

The audio stopped and when I pressed play to continue it started over from the beginning if you pause it or close it then go back to pick up where you left off it starts over from the beginning.

This is so disappointing it do not open at all and no response to help me from the people that created it for technical help. I reported it and no help and no response back thanks a lot
