The earliest Christians held the Scroll of Chanówkh in great esteem, as testify the canonical letters of Yâhuwthâ´h (6 y 14-16) and 2 Këph (2: 4), as also the noncanonical one of Bar-Nâvíy and the writings of Justin Martyr (100-165), Atenagoras (170); Titian (110-172); Irineus, Bishop of Lyon (115185); Clement of Alexandria (150-220); Tertulian (160-230); Lactancius (260-325) and besides those 2

of the Methodius of Philippus, Minucius Felix, Comodian and Priscilianus (m. 385).

The source translation was translated from the Ethiopian manuscripts, compared with the Greek manuscripts and further corrected according to the Aramaic Qumrân manuscripts (4Qen-4Qenastr), from the Spanish translation that is also found on my site. The numbers in parentheses are the verse divisions according to the format of the more logically organized and superior Spanish translation. Some of the words added from it are in italics except when major revisions were necessary.

This translation has been restored with the correct names and has had its scribal inserted pagan terms removed. Concerning the placement of the name of Yâ-hwéh, it was done logically in the spirit of Truth where it could not have been absent, and sparingly.

We are sure that it was named many more times than this within this scroll, and when a more intact manuscript appears which can provide this further evidence, this translation should get updated with it.

The vision of the Pure One of the heavens was revealed to me and I heard all the words of the Watchers and the Pure Ones.

2 And because I listened, I have learned all things from them, and understood what I saw; that what I am speaking of will not take place in this generation, but in a generation which is to succeed at a distant period to come. It is about of the elect 3 that I speak and for them that I pronounce my message: The Pure and mighty One shall come from His habitation [ZkharYâ´hu 2: 13], the eternal ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) 4 shall tread the earth upon Mount Çiynáy; He shall appear with His great army; and be manifested in the strength of His Force from the heights of the heavens.

(7) The earth shall split open, and all things that are on the Land shall perish, for there shall come a judgment upon all, (8) even upon all the righteous: 7 But with them shall He make the shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) [Remnant]; Yet He shall protect the chosen ones [stripped off Christians], and upon them shall the clemency relapse, 8 Then all of them shall belong to Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones), shall be happy and 8

Chapter 3 (2) 1 Observe all the things that occur in the heavens, 2 How that the heavenly luminaries do not change their paths; that each rises and sets regularly, every one at its proper period, without transgressing the commands they received. (2) Look at the earth, and pay attention to its works, from the beginning to the end, 3 how none of the works of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) changes, and all are visible for you. (3) Look at the signs of summer and winter: how the whole earth is filled with water; and that the cloud, the dew, and the rain refresh it.

Chapter 4 (3) 1 Consider and look at every tree, how each appears to wither, and every leaf falls off, except of fourteen trees, which are not deciduous; which wait with the old leaf, until the appearance of the new leaf, for two or three winters.

Back to top Chapter 5 (4) 1 And again consider the signs of summer, how during it the luminary orb burns and scalds, then while the earth is scorched up with fervid heat, you seek for a covered and shady spot on account of the burning luminary orb; without finding a way to walk 11

Back to top Chapter 6 (5) 1 Consider and see how the trees, when they put forth their green leaves, become covered, and produce fruit. Understand and consider all of these works, and know that the mighty Ones, Who lives forever, has done all these things for you: 2 How all His works continue at the beginning of every year always, and that all His works obey Him without alterations, so all things happens as Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) has decreed.

respective tasks, according to His commandments: 4 ¶ But ye change His commandments and do not do the Word of Yâ-hwéh; and instead, you have distorted and slandered His Greatness [To the Romans 1: 20-25, Yâhuwchânâ´n’s Glad Tidings 14: 28] with malignant and haughty words from your polluted mouths against His Majesty.

5 You hardened in heart; there shall be no shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) for you!

6(5) Therefore shall you curse your days, and the years of your lives shall be wasted; but the years of your destruction shall be multiplied like an eternal condemnation, and you shall not obtain mercy or shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation).

7(6) In those days, your names shall mean eternal condemnation for all the righteous 13

The Scroll of Chanówkh

[Yshá`Yâhuw 65: 11-16], and by means of your names shall the condemned be perpetually cursed, and by your names shall all the sinners 8 and the irreverent swear.

9(7) For the chosen ones there shall be light, joy, and shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation), and they shall inherit the earth; 10 But for you, you impure, there shall be condemnation.

11(8) Then the wisdom shall be granted to the chosen ones(3), and all of them shall live, and they shall not again transgress by irreverence or pride; instead they who are wise shall be humble, (9) and they shall not repeat transgression (3) Note the distinction between the righteous elect (chosen ones) and the elect, who are presently the Christians who 14

haven’t yet believed on His name. See 1: 7, how His clemency relapses on them, which is their being grafted in again at the 7th trumpet resurrection after their 6th seal judgment for denying His name.

12 nor sin nor be condemned the whole period of their lives, nor die in torment and indignation of the mighty Ones; but they shall complete the sum of the days of their lives, and their life shall be increased in shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation); while the years of their happiness shall be multiplied with continual joy and peace, for all the days of their lives.

The Scroll of Chanówkh

The Crime of the Watchers 1 It happened after the sons of ’Âthâ´m had multiplied in those days, that daughters were born to them, elegant and beautiful.

2 And when the Watchers, the sons of heaven, looked at them, they became enamored of them, saying to each other: “Come, let us select for ourselves wives from the progeny of ’Âthâ´m, and let us procreate sons.” [Genesis 6: 1-4] 3 Then their leader Shemiychâzâ´h said to them: “I fear that ye may perhaps be indisposed to complete this action, 4 And that I shall be the only one held responsible for a great sin.”

5(4) But they answered him and said: “Let us all swear;

16

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

6 And bind ourselves by mutual curses, that we will not change our intention, but execute our projected undertaking.”

7(5) Then they swore all together, and all bound themselves by mutual curses. (6) Their whole number was two hundred, which descended, in the days of Yéred [Chapter 105: 13], to the top of Mount Chermówn.

8 That mountain therefore was called Chermówn, because they had sworn upon it,(4) and bound themselves by mutual curses.

(4) Mt. Chermówn derives its name from the `Ivríyth word chérem, a curse (Charles, p. 63).

9(7) These are the names1 of their chiefs: Shemiychâzâ´h, who was their leader, Ar'taqof, Rama'el, Kokab'el, -’el [Turel], Ra'ma'el, Dani'el, Zeq'el, Baraq'el, 'Asa'el, Harmoni, Matra'el, 'Anan'el, Satow'el, Shamsi'el, Sahari'el, Tummi'el, Turi'el, Yomi'el, y Yhadi'el. (8) These were the prefects of the two hundred envoys, and the remainder was all with them.

10(7: 1) Then they took wives, each choosing for himself; whom they began to mount, and with whom they contaminated themselves; teaching them sorcery, incantations, and the dividing of roots and teaching them about the plants.

11(2) And the women, conceiving, brought forth giants,(5) These names are put as they were found in the Spanish translation which obtained them from the Aramaic Qumran translations. No further attempt to transliterate them more accurately here has been made except in the case of Shemiychâzâ´h.

(5) The Greek texts vary considerably from the Ethiopic text here. One Greek manuscript adds to this section, “And they [the women] bore to them [the Watchers] three races–first, the great giants. The giants brought forth [some say “slew”] the Naphelim, and the Naphelim brought forth [or “slew”] the Elioud. And they were increasing in power according to their size.” See the account in the Book of Jubilees.

12 Whose stature was each three hundred cubits [450 feet/212 meters], which were born on the earth and grew according to their childhood. (3) These devoured all that the labor of the sons of ’Âthâ´m produced; until it became impossible to feed them; 13(4) Then they turned themselves against men, in order to kill them and devour them; 19

The Scroll of Chanówkh

14(5) And began to injure all the birds of the sky, and the beasts of the earth, the reptiles and the fishes of the sea, and they devoured each other’s flesh(6) and drank their blood.

(6) “one another’s flesh” R.H. Charles notes that this phrase may refer to the destruction of one class of giants by another (Charles, p. 65).

15(6) Then the earth reproved the unrighteous for all that had been done in her.

Back to top Chapter 8 1 Moreover 'Asa'el taught men to make swords, and knives of iron, and shields, and breastplates of copper, the fabrication and 20

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

polishing of gold, and the workmanship of silver for bracelets and other ornaments. He taught women about antimony, the use of paint, the beautifying of the eyebrows, the use of stones of every valuable and select kind, and all sorts of dyes, so that the world became altered.

2 Irreverence increased; fornication multiplied; and they transgressed and corrupted all their ways.

3 Shemiychâzâ´h taught all the sorcerers, and dividers of roots: 4 Harmoni taught how to break spells, witchcraft, magic and divining, 5 Baraq'el taught the observers of the stars,(7) (7) Observers of the stars. Astrologers (Charles, p. 67).

21

The Scroll of Chanówkh

6 Kokab'el taught the predictions of the stars, Zeq'el those of the lightning-bolts, -el taught their meanings; 7 Ar'taqoph taught the signs of the earth, Shamsi'el taught the predictions of the luminary orb, 8 And Sahari'el taught those of the moon, 9(4) As part of the men were being annihilated, their cry ascended unto the heavens.

Back to top Chapter 9 The Appeal of the Pure Watchers 1 Then Miykhâ’Ë´l and Gavriy’Ë´l, Rphâ’Ë´l, Tsuwriy’Ë´l, and `Uwriy’Ë´l [not in sp. translation], looked down from the pure place of heaven, and saw the quantity of blood 22

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

which was shed on the earth, and that it was all full of the iniquity and the violence which was done upon it, (2) and considering this, these four2 said one to another: “The voice of the cries and the lamentations 2 for the destruction of the sons of the earth has ascended even to the gates of heaven!”

3 And they said to the pure One of heaven: “It is now to You, O You pure One of heaven, to Whom the souls of the sons of ’Âthâ´m supplicate, saying, ‘Take our cause before the Most High, our destruction before the majestic Honor and before the Sovereign of all the sovereigns in Majesty!’”

Verse 1 names 5 envoys, and says here four. Apparently some scribe tried to eliminate `Uwriy’Ë´l from the Spanish translation to make it congruent, and the mention that they were four was eliminated from the English translation, but these alterations were revealed in comparing them. The solution is that Miykhâ’Ë´l is Who they complained to, as this One is the Chief Envoy of Yâ-hwéh and the One at the right hand side of the Father on His Throne.

The Scroll of Chanówkh

(4) Then Rphâ’Ë´l, Miykhâ’Ë´l, Tsuwriy’Ë´l, [`Uwriy’Ë´l (not in Spanish translation)] and Gavriy’Ë´l said to the Sovereign of the world: “You are our great Sovereign, the Sovereign of the world, the Sovereign of sovereigns, the ’Elohë´y ’elohíym (the mighty Ones), and the King of kings. The heavens are the throne of Your Honor for all the generations forever and ever, all the earth is the footstool before You forever, and forever and ever is Your great name kept pure and honored and blessed.

4(5) It is You Who have made all things; and in You resides the power over all things; and all things are uncovered in all its nakedness before You. You see all things, and nothing can be concealed from You. 5(6) You have seen what ‘Asa’el has done, how he has taught every species of iniquity upon earth, and has disclosed to the world 24

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

the secret things which are done in the heavens.

6(7) Even Shemiychâzâ´h also has taught sorcery, to whom You have given authority over those who are associated with him. (8) They have gone together to the daughters of ’Âthâ´m and have lain with them and have become polluted themselves; 7 And have revealed all sin to them.

8 (9) Afterwards, these women, have brought forth giants, 9 Which is why the whole earth has been filled with blood and with injustice.

10 And now, look! The souls of those who are dead cry out, 11 And complain! Even to the gate of heaven 12 their groaning ascends, and they cannot cease for the unrighteousness that is being 25

The Scroll of Chanówkh

committed on earth. (11) But You know all things, before they happen, 13 You know these things, and what they have done; yet You do not tell us 14 what, on account of these things, ought we to do for them.”

Back to top Chapter 10 1 Then the Most High, the Great and Pure One spoke, 2 And sent Tsuwriy’Ë´l(8) to the son of Lémekh, (8) Sariel (per Spanish translation). Here one Greek text reads “`Uwriy’Ë´l”.

3(2) Saying to him: 26

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

“Go to Nóach and say to him by My name: ‘Conceal yourself.’

4 Then explain to him the consummation, which is about to take place; for all the earth shall perish; the waters of a deluge are about to come over the entire earth, and all things that are found in it shall perish.

5(3) And quickly now, teach the Righteous one, the son of Lémekh, what he must do to preserve his soul for life and that he may definitely escape, because through him shall a plant be sown and be established throughout all the generations.”

6(4) And furthermore, Yâ-hwéh said to Rphâ’Ë´l: “Bind 'Asa'el hand and foot; cast him into the darkness; opening the desert which is in Dudael (Duwthâ`Ë´l [Cauldron of the Power]), and cast him in there.

27

The Scroll of Chanówkh

7(5) Throw upon him abrasive and sharp stones, covering him with darkness; 8 Leave him there to remain for the age; cover his face, that he may not see the light.

9(6) And in the great Day of Judgment let him be cast into the fire.

10(7) Later, restore the earth, which the Watchers have corrupted; and announce curing to it, that I may revive it from the plague and that 11 All the sons of ’Âthâ´m might not perish in consequence of the secret which the Watchers have revealed and have taught their offspring.

12(8) All the earth has been corrupted by the effects of the works which were taught by 'Asa'el. To him therefore ascribe the whole crime.”

13(9) To Gavriy’Ë´l also, Yâ-hwéh said: 28

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

“Go to the bastards(9), to the reprobates, to the sons of fornication; and make the sons of fornication, the offspring of the Watchers, disappear from among men; bring them forth, and incite them one against another. Let them perish by mutual slaughter; for length of days shall not be theirs.

(9) Bastards, Mamzë´r in `Ivríyth, this means the product of scripturally forbidden sexual unions. It has no bearing on racial mixing scripturally.

14 (10) They shall all implore you, but no petition of their fathers shall be obtained respecting them; for they shall hope to live an eternal life, or that they may live, each of them, five hundred years.”

15(11) To Miykhâ’Ë´l likewise Yâ-hwéh said: 29

The Scroll of Chanówkh

“Go and announce to Shemiychâzâ´h and to the others who are with him who have been associated with women and who polluted themselves with them in their impurity, (12) that their sons shall be slain and they shall see the perdition of their beloved.

Bind them for seventy generations [14007000 (80 years per generation3)] underneath the earth, even to the great Day of their [their beloved’s4] Judgment [7th trumpet (89: 29-32)], 16(13) Then shall they be taken away into the lowest depths of the fire in torments; and in confinement shall they be shut up for 76 to 84 years per generation would land this event in 7000 during the antediluvian lifetime of Nóach. If it is 80 years per generation, it is in Nóach’s 344th year, during the lifetime of Yéred. Therefore this most likely occurred in the year 1400 after creation, making it fall within the second week (92: 5). The watchers will be brought back up to share with the perdition of their beloved which happens at the sixth seal judgment (89: 3237) for this is when these watchers will be sharing the 1,000 year day of wrath in the torments of deepest Sh’ówl, and then at the Great Judgment shall be cast into the lake of fire.

4 This is when these watchers shall see the perdition of their beloved, these are the marked followers of the beast.

[2 Këph 2: 4 the 1,000 year Day of Wrath] 17 (14) All who are condemned from then onward shall perish and they shall be bound with them until the destruction of their stock; immediately after this, in the time of the judgment which I shall judge, he(10) shall, together with them, burn and perish for all the generations [the second death]; (10) He. I.e., Shemiychâzâ´h.

18 (15) Destroy all the spirits of the bastards, and the offspring of the Watchers, for they have made mankind work evil.

19(16) Let every oppressor perish from the face of the earth, 20 Let every evil work be destroyed, 31

The Scroll of Chanówkh

21 Let the plant of righteousness and of rectitude appear, and its produce become a blessing.

22 And the works of the righteous and erect shall be forever planted with delight.

23(17) And during this time shall all the pure ones escape, and live until they have procreated thousands5, while the whole period of their youth, and their Shabbâ´th shall be completed in shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation). (18) In those days all the earth shall be cultivated in righteousness; it shall be entirely planted with trees, and filled with benediction; (19) every tree of the earth that they desire shall be planted in it.

24 And they shall plant vines in it; and the vine that shall be planted in it shall yield fruit to satiety and each one of them shall 5

produce a thousand jars of wine, and every seed, which shall be sown in it, shall produce for one measure a thousand; and one measure of olives shall produce ten presses of oil.

25(20) And You, cleanse the earth from all oppression, from all violence, from all sin, from all irreverence, and from all the evil that is committed upon it, and make them disappear from the earth.

26(21) Then shall all the sons of ’Âthâ´m become righteous, and all nations shall adore Me, shall direct themselves in prayer to Me and praise Me. 27(22) And the earth shall be clean from all corruption, from every sin, from all punishment, and from all suffering, and I will not again send plagues upon the earth, from generation to generation nor for all the ages.

33

The Scroll of Chanówkh

28(11: 1) And in those days I will open the treasures of blessing which are in heaven, in order that I may cause them to descend upon earth, and upon all the works and labor of man.

29(11: 2) And the shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) and the Truth shall associate with the sons of ’Âthâ´m all the days of the world, in every age of it.”

Back to top (No Chapter 11) Back to top Chapter 12 1 Before all these things Chanówkh was concealed; and there was no son of ’Âthâ´m 34

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

who knew where he was concealed, where he had been, or what had happened to him.

2 He passed his days with the pure ones, and did all of his activity with the Watchers.

3 Thus I, Chanówkh, was starting to bless Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of the Majesty, the King of the ages, 4 And look! The Watchers called me “Chanówkh the scribe”.

5 Then Yâ-hwéh said to me: (4) “Chanówkh, scribe of Righteousness, go tell the Watchers of heaven who have deserted the heights of the sky, their pure everlasting station, and who have polluted themselves with women, 6 And have done as the sons of ’Âthâ´m do, by taking to themselves wives, and have forged a great work of corruption on the earth; and let them know 35

The Scroll of Chanówkh

7(5) That there shall not be any shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) or redemption from their sin for them. (6) And as they rejoiced for their offspring; they shall look at the slaughter of their beloved; and they shall lament for the destruction of their sons and shall petition forever; but there shall not be any mercy or shâlówm for them.”

Back to top Chapter 13 1 Then Chanówkh, passing on, said to 'Asa'el: “You shall not obtain shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation). A great sentence is gone forth against you. It shall bind you; 36

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

2 Neither shall there be for you any truce, mercy, nor intercession, on account of the unrighteousness that you have taught; 3 And on account of every act of irreverence, violence, and sin, which you have taught to the sons of ’Âthâ´m.”

4 (3) Then departing from him I spoke to them all together; 5 And they all feared and became terrified, and trembling seized them; 6 (4) Beseeching me to write for them a petition, that they might obtain forgiveness for their sins; and that I might make the memorial of their prayer ascend up before the Sovereign Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) in heaven; (5) because they could not themselves thenceforwards address Him, nor raise up their eyes to heaven on account of the shame for the offenses for which they were judged.

37

The Scroll of Chanówkh

7(6) Then I wrote a memorial of their prayer and all their supplications for their lives, for everything that they had done, and for the subject of their plea, that there might be forgiveness and long life for them.

8(7) Proceeding on, I continued over the waters of Dan in the land of Dan, which is south of Chermówn to the west of it, and I was reading the scroll where I noted their petitions, until I fell asleep.

9(8) And look! A dream came to me, and visions appeared above me, until I lifted my eyes to the gates of the palace of the heavens and I saw a vision of punishment, and a voice came and told me: “Tell it to the sons of heaven, and reprove them.”

(9) When I awoke I went to them. All being collected together sat weeping in the Fountain of the Weeping, which is situated 38

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

between Lvânówn and Sníyr,(11) with their faces veiled.

(11) Lvânówn and Sníyr. Lebanon and the Amorite name for Mount Hermon (near Damascus).

10 I related in their presence all the visions that I had seen, and my dream, 11 And began to utter these words of righteousness and of vision, reproving the Watchers of heaven: Back to top Chapter 14 1 This is the Scroll of The Words of Righteousness, and of The Reproof of The Watchers, who are from eternity, 39

The Scroll of Chanówkh

according to that which He, Who is pure and great, commanded in the vision. (2) I perceived in my dream what I am now speaking with the tongue of flesh and with my breath, which the Power has put into the mouth of men, that they might converse with it, 2 And for them to understand with the heart.

As Yâ-hwéh has created and granted to sons of ’Âthâ´m the privilege of comprehending the Word of understanding, so He has created and granted to me the privilege of reproving the Watchers, the offspring of heaven. (3) Watchers: I have written your petition; and in my vision it has been shown me, that what you request will not be granted to you as long as the world endures.

3 Judgment has been passed upon you: it will not be granted you, 40

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

4 For from this time forward, you shall never ascend into heaven, (5) because He has said that He will bind you in the prisons of the earth, as long as the age endures.

5(6) But before these things you shall look at the destruction of all of your beloved sons, and the riches of your beloved ones and of your sons you shall not possess, rather they shall fall before you by the sword of destruction.

6(7) So neither shall your plea for them, nor for yourselves be granted 7 likewise: despite your tears and prayers you will receive nothing whatever contained in the writing that I have written.

8 A vision appeared to me thus: 9 Look! In that vision clouds invited me and a fog called me; and flashes of lightning and thunders impelled and pressed me forwards, while the winds in the vision made me fly, lifting me into the heights, 41

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

10 They elevated me aloft to the heavens. (9) I proceeded in, until I arrived at a wall of a building built with hailstones, surrounded and enclosed completely with flames of fire, which began to frighten me.

11(10) I entered through these flames of fire, until 12 I drew nigh to a spacious house built also with stones of hail, whose walls were like sheets of stone, all were made with snow, and the ground was made of snow. (11) Its roof was like lightning-bolts and thunder; and among them were Kruwv铆ym of fire in a stormy sky. (12) A burning flame surrounded all its walls completely; and its doors were made of blazing fire. (13) When I entered into this dwelling, it was hot as fire and cold as ice. In it were none of the pleasures of life.

It consumed me in fear, and a fearful shaking seized me.

42

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

13(14) Violently agitated and trembling, I fell upon my face, and a vision was revealed to me: 14(15) And here I saw a door which opened before me, and there was another house more spacious than the former, erected all of flames of fire.

15(16) All of it exceeded the other one in splendor, honor, and majesty, and in magnitude, that I cannot describe to you either the splendor or the extent of it.

16(17) Its floor was made of fire; and its superior parts were made of thunders and lightnings, and its roof was made of blazing fire.

17(18) It was uncovered for me and I saw that it contained an exalted throne; 18 The appearance of which was like that of crystal, and whose circumference resembled 43

The Scroll of Chanówkh

the orb of the brilliant luminary; and I had a view of the Kruwvíym.

19 Over this mighty throne, rivers of flaming fire issued.

20 And I could not bear to look towards there.

21(20) The Great Honor was seated in the throne, 22 Whose robe was more brilliant than the luminary orb, and whiter than any snow.

23(21) No envoy was capable of penetrating to view the Face of Him, the Radiance and the Irradiator [`Ivríym 1: 3]; nor could any mortal look at Him. (22) A fire was flaming around Him. 24 A fire also of great extent continued to rise up before Him; so that not one of those who surrounded Him was capable of approaching Him, and the ten-thousand times ten-thousands who were before Him, 44

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

though for Him pure consultation was needless [Romans 11: 34, Eph. 1: 11]. (23) Yet the purities of the pure ones who were near Him, did not go away from Him either by night or by day; nor did they separate from Him [MattithYâ´huw 18: 10]. (24) I until this moment was prostrated on my face, trembling, then Yâ-hwéh with His own mouth called me, saying: “Approach hither, Chanówkh, and listen to My pure Word.”

25 And one of the pure ones came to me, awoke me, making me get up and draw near even to the entrance and my eye was directed to the ground.

5 ‘Therefore have I given to them wives, that they might impregnate them and to procreate sons from them and so that they might not be absent upon the earth.

6 ‘But as to you, ye were from the beginning made spiritual, living an eternal life, immortal for all the generations of the world.

7 ‘Therefore I did not make wives for you, because, being spiritual, your dwelling is in heaven.

8 ‘Now the giants, who have been born of spirit and of flesh, shall be called upon earth ‘evil spirits’, and their habitation shall be on earth. (9) Evil spirits shall proceed from their flesh, because they were born of humans and their beginning 47

and their primary foundation was from the pure Watchers. The evil spirits shall be upon the earth, and they shall be called ‘the spirits of the wicked’. (10) The habitation of the spirits of heaven shall be in heaven; but upon earth shall be the habitation of terrestrial spirits, who were procreated on the earth.(12) (12) Note the many implications of vv. 3-8 regarding the progeny of evil spirits.

9 (11) ‘The spirits of the giants, shall be like tyrants,(13) which shall afflict, oppress, invade, combat, and destroy upon the earth and (13) The meaning of Nphilíym is fellers, bullies, and tyrants.

10 ‘They shall cause lamentation.

Though they shall not eat, they shall be hungry and thirsty [Luwqá’ 11: 24], and they shall cause damage, and these spirits shall rise up against the sons of ’Âthâ´m, and against the women, for they come forth from them during the days of slaughter and destruction.

Back to top Chapter 16 1 ‘After the death of the giants, when their spirits depart from their bodies, their flesh [race] shall be destroyed before the judgment(14). Thus shall they perish, until the day of the great consummation of the great judgment in which the age shall end 49

for the Watchers and the irreverent and ye shall be totally consumed.’

(14) Their flesh shall be destroyed before the judgment (Knibb, p. 102). If they had died in the flood, we would find fossils of them, or the flood would have been attributable to their evil and not man’s. “Flesh” in scripture is the term for “race” also, and 15:10 states that these evil spirits will come forth from women then before the judgment. This will likely be by implanted clones, which have no innate soul, but can harbor such a disembodied evil spirit.

2 So now to the Watchers, who have sent you to pray for them that in another age they might inhabit the heavens, 3Say: (3) 50

“In heaven have you been; however, secret things have not been revealed to you; you have not known but a reprobated secret, 4 ‘And this you have related to women by the hardness of your heart, and by that secret have women and mankind multiplied evils upon the earth.”

2 They carried me to the house of the tempest, upon a mountain, the top of which reaches unto the skies.

3 And I saw the mansions of the luminaries and the stores of the stars and the thunder at the extremities of the abyss where it was deepest. That is where there was the bow of fire, and its arrows in their quiver, the sword of fire, and every species of lightning.

4 Then they carried me to the waters of life, and unto the fire of the west, which received all the settings of the luminary orb. (5) I came unto a river of fire, whose flames flowed like water, and emptied itself into the great sea westwards.

5(6) I saw all of the great rivers, until I arrived at a great darkness, and I went towards where all of flesh migrate [Sh’ówl]; 52

4(3) And I saw how the winds extended the veil of the heavens in the heights, 53

5 And how they hold their post between the heavens and the earth, constituting the pillars of heaven.

6(4) I saw the winds that cause rotation, which cause the orb of the luminary and of all the stars to set; (5) and over the earth I saw the winds that support the clouds.

7 I saw the path of the envoys.

8 In the confines of the earth, I perceived the firmament of heaven above it.

16 The stars that roll upon the fire are those that transgressed the commandment of Yâ-hwéh before their time arrived, for they came not in their proper season. (16) Therefore was He irritated with them, and bound them, until the period of the consummation of their crimes in the secret year.”

1 Then I returned to the place where all was chaotic. [Lake of Fire (18: 12-16)] 2 And there I saw something horrible: I did not see neither a heaven being exalted, nor a firmly founded earth, instead a formless and terrible place! [18: 13] 3 There, too, I saw four stars of heaven bound in it together, like great mountains, and blazing like a fire. (4) I exclaimed: “For what species of crime have they been bound, and why have they been cast to this place?”

(5) Then `Uwriy’Ë´l, the watcher, and the Pure One Who was with me, and who led me, answered: “Chanówkh, why do you ask; why do you reason with yourself, and anxiously inquire? (6) These are those of the stars that have transgressed the commandment of Yâ-hwéh; and are bound here, until the 60

4 (7) From there I afterwards passed on to another even more terrifying place, 5 Where I saw something horrible: the operation of a great fire blazing and flaming, in the midst of which there was a division. It was filled with descending columns of fire deep into the abyss, but I was neither able to discover its measurement nor magnitude; nor could I perceive its origin. (8) Then I exclaimed, “How terrible is this place, and how difficult to explore!”

6 (9) `Uwriy’Ë´l, the watcher and the Pure One Who was with me, answered and said: “Chanówkh, why are you alarmed and amazed?”

I responded: 61

“It is at this terrifying place, and at the sight of this suffering.”

(10) “This,” he said, “is the prison of the envoys; and here they shall be kept for the age.” [18: 12-16] Back to top Chapter 22 1 From there I proceeded to another spot, where I saw on the west a great and lofty mountain made of a strong Rock, (2) and there were there four deep pits, 2 Internally they were deep, capacious, and very smooth; and I said: “How smooth these holes are, and how deep and dark they look!”

62

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

3 Then Rphâ’Ë´l the Watcher, and the Pure One who were with me, answered me saying: “These cavities have been formed with the following purpose: that the spirits of the souls of the dead may be collected; and that here all the souls of the sons of ’Âthâ´m will be collected.

4 Thus these are the pits that will serve as their prison: (4) These are made for this, until the day of their great judgment, 5 At the appointed time, which shall be done to them on the Last Day.” (5) And I saw the spirit of a son of ’Âthâ´m who was dead accusing; and his lament reached to heaven, while he was shouting and accusing.

6 Then I inquired of Rphâ’Ë´l, the Watcher, and the pure [envoy] who was with me, and said: 63

The Scroll of Chanówkh

“Whose spirit is that, who accuses such that the voice of it reaches to heaven, shouting and accusing?”

7 He answered, saying: “This is the spirit which came out of Hével who was slain by Qáyin his brother; and who will accuse that brother, until his seed be destroyed from the face of the earth; 8 Until his seed perish from the seed of the human race.”

Sh’ówl: separation according to population 9 (8) At that time therefore I inquired, observing all the pits, saying: “Why are they separated from each other?”

(9) He answered: “These three separations have been made so that the souls of the dead may be separate, and thus has a [first] division been made for the souls of the righteous, 64

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

10 Which is by a chasm, living water, and by a light source.

11 (10) And in the same way likewise are sinners separated [in a second division] when they die, and are buried in the earth, when judgment does not overtake them during their lifetime. [Prejudgment Christians] 12 (11) Here their souls shall be placed separate for this their abundant suffering, until the Day of the Great Judgment, and it is the castigation and the torment of those [who constantly curse], whose souls [are punished and bound there,] who deserve such retribution for their lives for the age.

2 Their stones were precious and beautiful, and all were splendid, of awesome appearance and beautiful aspect. Three mountains were towards the east, and strengthened by being placed one against another; and three were towards the south, strengthened in a similar manner, one under the next. There were likewise deep and tortuous valleys, which did not approach each other. (3) And the seventh mountain was in 68

Its leaf, its flower, and its bark never withered, and its fruit was beautiful.

4 (34: 3) If they proceed from only one of the gates they blew mildly; but when they blew from the other two gates, it was with violence and calamity over the earth because they blow strongly.

Back to top Chapter 34 (35) 1 From there I went to the western extremities of the land; 2 Where I perceived three gates of the heavens open, the same number of gates and sorties as I had seen in the east.

2 And from there I was transported to the eastern extremities of the heavens, where I saw three eastern heavenly gates open, which had smaller gates above them. (36: 3) through each of these small gates pass the stars of heaven and proceed by a course traced for them towards the west [and that at every period].

3 (36: 4) When I saw this, I blessed Yâ-hwéh the Sovereign of Honor all the time, and I shall continue blessing the Sovereign of Honor, Who had made those great and 83

splendid signs, in order to display the magnificence of His works to the envoys, to the spirits, and to the sons of ’Âthâ´m; and that these might honor that work and all His creation; that these might see the effect of His Force; that these might praise the great labor of His hands; and bless Him forever.

Shëth, the son of ’Âthâ´m. (2) This is the beginning of the words of wisdom, which I received to speak to and say to those who dwell upon earth, “Listen, men from the beginning, and understand to the end, the Words of the Pure One, which I utter in the presence of the Sovereign of spirits!”

(3) It was good to speak it to those of yesteryear, 2 But let not us obstruct the beginning of wisdom to those who come after. (4) Until the present such wisdom has never before been granted by the Sovereign of spirits, but I have received it according my discernment, according to the pleasure of the Sovereign of spirits; thanks to Whom I have received from Him a portion of life eternal.

When the assembly of the righteous shall be manifested and the sinners shall be judged for their sins, and be expelled from the face of the earth, 2 When the Righteous One shall appear [6th Seal] in the sight of the righteous, of the chosen whose works depend on the Sovereign of spirits; and when the Light shines for the righteous and the elect who dwell on earth, where will the habitation of 86

sinners then be? [Outside the Kingdom] And where shall be the place of rest for those who have reneged against the Sovereign of spirits? [Burning pit of Sh’ówl (89: 35-37)] It would have been better for them, had they never been born. [Márquwç 14: 21] 3 Also when the Secret of the Righteous One shall be completed(16) [7th Trumpet], then shall sinners be judged, and irreverent men shall be expelled from the presence of the righteous and the elect.

(16) the secrets of the righteous shall be revealed (source text). Correction based on context and scriptures.

4 From that moment on, those who possess the earth shall cease to be powerful and elected any more, nor shall they be capable of looking at the countenances of the pure ones; 87

The Scroll of Chanówkh

for it shall be the Light of the Sovereign of spirits that will shine on the face of the pure, the righteous, and the elect.

5 Then the kings and the mighty shall be destroyed; and be delivered into the hands of the righteous and the pure.

6 Nor thenceforwards shall any seek mercy from the Sovereign of spirits for them, because their mortal lives will have been met its end.

Back to top Chapter 39 1 And it shall occur in those days that the sons of the elect and pure shall descend from the heights of the heavens, and their Seed [Yâhuwshúa`] shall then be united with the sons of ’Âthâ´m. (2) Chanówkh received 88

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

the scrolls of the indignation and the wrath, and the scrolls of the anguish and the exile.

2 “Never shall they obtain mercy”, said the Sovereign of spirits.

3 And a cloud then covered me, and the wind lifted me above the surface of the earth, placing me at the extremity of the heavens.

4 There I saw another vision; I saw the place where the pure ones inhabit and the place of rest of the righteous. (5) There I contemplated with my eyes their dwellings among the envoys of righteousness, and their places of rest among the pure ones. As they were supplicating and praying for the sons of ’Âthâ´m, righteousness sprang up like water among them, and mercy was scattered on them like dew on the earth, for centuries upon centuries.

89

The Scroll of Chanówkh

5 In that place with my eyes I saw the Elect One of Righteousness and of the persuasion; Righteousness shall prevail in His days and 6 countless shall be the number of the righteous and the chosen before Him forever and forever.

7 I saw their residence under the wings of the Sovereign of spirits. All the righteous and the elect shall shine before Him like a scintillation of fire, their mouths shall be full of blessings, and their lips shall honor the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.

And righteousness and the Truth shall not fail before Him. 8 There was I desirous of remaining, and my spirit longed for that habitation. There was my antecedent inheritance; thus and how had been established for me before the Sovereign of spirits.

90

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

9 At that time I praised and extolled the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits with blessing and praise, because He has destined me for blessing and honor, according to the good pleasure of the Sovereign of spirits.

10 My eyes observed that place for a long time, and I blessed Him and praised Him saying: “Blessed is He, and may He be blessed from the beginning and forever! (11) Before Him is no resignation, He knows since before the world’s creation 11 what is forever, and what shall be from generation to generation. (12) Those who do not sleep bless You, they stand before Your Honor, blessing, honoring, and exalting You, saying: ‘Pure pure, pure, is Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits, He fills the whole world with spirits!’”

91

The Scroll of Chanówkh

12 (13) There my eyes looked there at all those who do not sleep,(17) standing before Him and bless Him, saying: “Blessed be You, and blessed be the name of Yâ-hwéh the Sovereign of the spirits for the ages of the ages!”

(14) Then my view was changed, until I was incapable of seeing them.

(17) These who do not sleep but stand before Him are the Srâphíym, the Kruwvíym, and ’Ophânníym (70: 9)

Back to top Chapter 40 1 After this I saw thousands of thousands, and ten-thousands of ten-thousands, and an innumerable and multitude impossible to 92

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

calculate, which are sustained before the Sovereign of spirits.

2 And on the four sides of the Sovereign of spirits, I saw four presences different from those who do not sleep and I learned their names, because the envoy, who goes with me, let me know them, and revealed to me every secret thing.

3 Then I heard the voices of those four presences and how they pronounced praises before the Sovereign of Honor.

4 The first voice blessed the Sovereign of spirits for the ages of the ages.

5 The second voice I heard blessing the Elect One, and the elect ones who depend on the Sovereign of spirits.

6 The third voice I heard praying and interceding for those who dwell upon earth that supplicate by the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.

93

The Scroll of Chanówkh

7 The fourth voice I heard expelling the adversaries, and preventing them from entering into the presence of the Sovereign of spirits, to accuse the inhabitants of the earth of His. 8 After this I asked the envoy of peace who went with me and explained all that was concealed to me, saying to him: “Who are those four presences which I have seen, and whose words I have heard and written down?

(9) He replied: “The First, the merciful and very patient, is Miykhâ’Ë´l.

9 The second is he who is assigned over the sicknesses and all of the wounds of the sons of ’Âthâ´m, is Rphâ’Ë´l. The third, who is assigned over all the powers, is Gavriy’Ë´l.

And the fourth, who is assigned over the hope of those who will inherit eternal life, is 94

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

called Tsuwriy’Ë´l [Pniy’Ë´l source English translation].”

(10) These are the four envoys of the Sovereign of spirits, and their four voices that I heard in those days.

Back to top Chapter 41 1 After this I saw the Secret of Yâ-hwéh and how the Kingdom is divided and of how human actions are weighed there in balances.

(2) There I saw the habitations of the chosen ones, and the dwelling of the pure ones, and my eyes saw when the sinners were expelled from there because they rejected the name of the Sovereign of Honor, and they could not stay there, because of the punishment which 95

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

proceeds against them from the Sovereign of spirits.

2 (3) There, too, my eyes looked at the secrets of the lightning and the thunder; and the secrets of the winds, how they are distributed as they blow over the earth: the secrets of the winds, of the dew, and of the clouds: the place from which they issued forth, and from where they saturate the dust of the earth.

3 (4) There I saw the confined space from which the winds are distributed, the store of the hail and the wind, the store of the fog and the clouds that flutter over the earth since the beginning of the world.

4 (5) And I looked at the space of the luminary orb and of the moon, from whence they proceed, and towards where they return, and their splendid return, and how one became more splendid than the next; 96

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

their magnificent orbit, and how they do not leave from it and loyally maintain the oath which they have made to each other; (6) the luminary orb proceeds forth first, and follows its path, in obedience to the command of the Sovereign of spirits, whose name is potent for the ages of the ages.

5 (7) After this I saw the path both the concealed and the visible path of the moon, as it completes the circuit of its path in that place day and night, and one maintains a position with the other, before the Sovereign of spirits. They give thanks and praise without ceasing, because for them giving thanks is rest. (8) The luminary orb turns frequently to bless, or to curse, 6 and the circuit of the moon’s route is blessing for the righteous and darkness for the sinners, in the name of Yâ-hwéh, Who has separated light from the darkness, and 97

The Scroll of Chanówkh

has sorted the spirits of men, and has strengthened the spirits of the righteous in the name of His own Righteousness.

7 (9) For no envoy prevents this, neither is any power capable of preventing it; because He appoints a judgment for all of them, and judges them all in His own presence.

Back to top Chapter 42 1 Wisdom7 finds not a place on earth where she can dwell; therefore her dwelling is in the heavens.

2 Wisdom went forth to dwell among the sons of ’Âthâ´m, but she did not find a place.

Then Wisdom returned to her home, and has taken her seat among the envoys. (3) But 7

Back to top Chapter 43 1 Then I saw other comets and stars of the sky and I saw how He called them all by their names and that they paid heed. (2) I saw how they were weighed in a righteous balance, according to their light, their sizes, and the day of their appearance, and how their movement generated brilliance; and I saw their path was according to the number of the envoys, and how trustworthiness is kept among them.

99

2 (3) Then I inquired of the envoy who proceeded with me and explained to me secret things, “What is this?”

(4) He answered: “the Sovereign of spirits has shown you His parable. These are the names of the pure ones who dwell upon the earth and believe in the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits forever and forever.”

3 “In that day shall My Elect One sit upon the throne of Honor and shall judge their works; their rest-havens shall be countless, 101

and their spirits shall be strengthened within them when they see My Elect One, and those who have appealed to My pure and awesome name.

4 In that day I will cause My Elect One to dwell among them; I will change the face of heaven and I will bless it, and illuminate it forever.

5 I will also change the face of the Land, and I will bless it; and cause those whom I have elected to inhabit it; But the sinners and the wicked shall not set foot there. (6) For I have supplied and satisfied My righteous ones with shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation), and I have made them live before Me; but the condemnation of sinners shall draw near8, that I may destroy them from the face of the earth.”

The judgment of the heathen masses that disobey comes after the 7th Trumpet, and is not simultaneous with Yâ-hwéh’s coming at the 6th Seal.

With Him was Another, Whose appearance resembled that of ’Âthâ´m, and His countenance was full of favor, like that of one of the envoys of the Pure One. (2) Then I inquired of the envoy who went with me, and who showed me every secret thing, concerning this Son of ’Âthâ´m: “Who is He, from where did He come, and why does He go with the Head of the days?”

2 (3) He answered and said to me: “This is the Son of ’Âthâ´m, to Whom the Righteousness belongs; with Whom the Righteousness dwells; and Who will reveal 103

all the hidden treasures: for the Sovereign of spirits has chosen Him; and He has as His allotment the greatest dignity before the Sovereign of spirits, justly and forever.

3 (4) This Son of ’Âthâ´m, Whom you have seen, shall rouse kings and the mighty from their beds, and the powerful from their thrones; shall loosen the bridles of the powerful, and break in pieces the teeth of sinners.

4 (5) He shall overthrow kings from their thrones and their kingdoms; because they have not exalted nor praised Him, nor did they humbly recognize from Whom their royalty was granted to them. (6) He shall change the countenance of the mighty, filling them with fear. Darkness shall be their dwelling, and worms shall be their bed; and they shall hold no hope to be raised from that bed, because they did not 104

exalt the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.

5 (7) These are those who condemn the stars of heaven, lift up their hands against the Most High, oppress and inhabit the earth, whose works exhibit all iniquity, whose power resides in their wealth, whose trust is in the ’elohíym (the mighty ones) whom they have fabricated with their own hands: They deny the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits, (8) and they persecute His congregations 6 and the trustworthy, which suffer for the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.”

Back to top Chapter 48 1 In that place I looked at the fountain of righteousness, which never failed, encircled by many springs of wisdom. Of these all the thirsty drank, and were filled with wisdom, 107

2 In that hour this Son of ’Âthâ´m was named before the Sovereign of spirits, and His name was before the Head of the Days: 3 “Before the luminary orb and the signs were created, before the stars of heaven were formed, His name was pronounced in the presence of the Sovereign of spirits. (4) A Support shall He be for the righteous and the pure to lean upon without falling; and He shall be the Light of nations.

The wisdom of the Sovereign of spirits has revealed Him to the pure ones and to the righteous, for He has preserved the lot of the righteous, because they have hated and rejected this world of iniquity, and have detested all its works and ways, in the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.

7 For by means of His name shall they be saved and His will shall be their life.

[Yâhuwchânâ´n s Glad Tidings 6: 40, 20: 31] (8) In those days the kings of the earth and the mighty men who have gained the world [MattithYâ´huw 16: 26] shall become humble in countenance due to the works of their hands, 8 for their lives shall not be saved from the day of their anguish and affliction; (9) and I shall give them over into the hands of My chosen ones. ’

9 Like hay in the fire they shall burn in the presence of the pure ones, and like lead into the water they shall sink in the presence of the righteous; Thus shall they burn in the presence of the pure, and sink in the presence of the righteous, and no trace of them shall be found.

10 But in the Day of their trouble, there shall be rest in the earth, 11 In their presence shall they fall and not be raised up again; nor shall there be any one to take them out of His hands, and to lift them up: for they have denied the Sovereign of spirits, and His Anointed.

To understand this materially, it would mean that those righteous and pure lost at sea would miss out on participating in the first resurrection, which is against scripture. Therefore this statement is spiritually discerned: the sea represents the heathen masses! Racially, we know that many of His people who migrated among the heathen masses were spiritually “lost at sea” turning heathen, but besides this, most of the dead heathen masses themselves are considered the sheep of the other flock that it behooves Him to gather also.

Note the spiritual definition of `Amâlë´q is name-denying Christianity, which is related to `Ësâ´w, who despised the inheritance of our fathers, Yâ-hwéh. Note that Yâ-hwéh Yâhuwshúa` shall remove from the roots all of the house of the Valley Dwellers (`Amâlë´q), per the Exodus reference. Note that this uprooting means getting totally rid of the Wickedness (the Lie) by exposing its roots and by revealing the Truth at His coming (explained more in detail in the Glad Tidings of Phílippos).

After this is when He unleashes His wrath and punishments on them.

Sixth Bowl of Wrath (Disclosure 16: 12-16) 6 (56: 1) There likewise I looked at hosts of envoys of punishment, who were going, holding whips and chains of iron and bronze.

They shall overthrow them from their thrones, springing as lions from their dens, and like famished wolves into the midst of their flock.

They shall rise up to destroy each other; their right hand shall be strengthened; and a man shall not acknowledge his friend or his brother; 11 Nor the son his father or his mother; until the number of the dead bodies shall be completed, by their death and punishment.

Neither shall this take place without cause.

2 And they came upon the wind [YchezqË´’l 38] from the east, from the west, and from the south. [Disclosure 20: 9] 3 The sound of the noise of their chariots was heard.

4 And when that noise took place, the pure ones noticed that the pillars of the earth moved from their place and the sound that was produced was heard from one extreme unto the other extreme of heaven during the same day.

It is possible that this was originally “from Yâ-hwéh” which would make sense, but this reading is also correct, because His name was given to us from the heavens (Deeds 4: 12) and though the Word of the persuasion is not far off in the heavens for it to be unobtainable for us, this verse may have been what precipitated the question which that verse answered.

(2) And when I looked, the Head of the days was sitting on the throne of His Honor and the envoys and righteous remained around Him. (3) A great trembling overcame me, and terror seized me. My 132

bowels16 were opened, my reins17 melted, and I fell upon my face. (4) Then Miykhâ’Ë´l, another envoy of the Pure One, was sent to raise me up.

2 And when He raised me, my spirit returned, for I was incapable of enduring this vision of these hosts, their agitation, and the shakings of the heavens.

3 (5) Then Miykhâ’Ë´l said to me: “Why does the vision of these things frighten you?

7 In that day shall be separated from one another for food(21) two monsters; a female monster, whose name is LiwYâthâ´n [“Leviathan”] (writhing dragon), dwelling in the depths of the sea [heathen masses], over the springs of waters [Establishment “Bible”]; (21) separated from one another for food. The food is spiritual, the execution 134

The annihilation of the desert-beast (apostate Christianity) and the later annihilation of the sea-beast (unrepentant heathen masses) are on the same Day, yet separated, the latter being the marriage supper of the Lamb.

8 And a male monster, whose name is Véhëmowth [Behemoth]; which possesses, moving on his breast, the immense desert [apostate Christianity] 9 that is named Duindayín, to the east of the garden where the elect and the righteous will dwell.”

(Where my ancestor was carried to, the seventh from ’Âthâ´m,(22) whom the Sovereign of spirits made.)

(22) This implies that this section of the scroll was written by Nóach, Chanówkh's descendant, rather than Chanówkh.

Scholars have speculated that this portion of the scroll may contain fragments of the lost Apocalypse of Nóach.

10 (9) Then I asked of another envoy to show me the power of those monsters, how they became separated, how they became separated on the same day, though one is in the depths of the sea, and one in the dry desert.

11 (10) And he said: “You, son of ’Âthâ´m, are here desirous of understanding secret things.”

[The Spanish translation gives this other envoy’s response here instead of in Chapter 59]

12 (24) And the Envoy of peace [Miykhâ’Ë´l], Who was with me, said: 136

“These two monsters are prepared for the great Day of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) and are fed so that the (25) punishment of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) may not descend in vain upon them.

5 and the power of the moon’s light, how its power is a just one; and the divisions among the stars according to their names 6 and how every division is subdivided and classified; (13) and the thunder in the places where it echoes and all the distinctions that are made among the lightning flashes killed that Day of the 6th seal and the sea monster at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, yet both are part of the same judgment.

7 and among its troops so that they obey quickly, (14) and that a cessation takes place during thunder in continuance of its sound.

But the thunder and the lightning are not separated; neither do both of them move by means of the same medium, yet they are not separated.

8 (15) For when the lightning flashes, the thunder sounds, and the medium attenuates it while it echoes, and distributes it equally among both; for the charge of its shout is like sand, and each of them like their echoes are restrained with a bridle and turned by the power of the medium, are propelled towards the many areas of the earth.

9 (16) The spirit of the sea is masculine and vigorous; and as its force causes it to ebb, thus it is driven away, and dispersed against the mountains of the earth. (17) The spirit of the freezing is its own envoy; but the spirit 139

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

of hail is a good envoy; (18) the spirit of snow lets it fall by its own force from its stores; She has a special spirit, which ascends from it like vapor, and is called refrigeration.

10 (19) The spirit also of fog does not dwell with them in their store; rather it has its own store; since its path is marvelous, 11 Either in light, just as in darkness, in winter or in summer, and its very receptacle is an envoy.

12 (20) The spirit of dew dwells in the extremities of heaven, and is in connection with the store of the rain; and its travels in winter or in summer, and its cloud and the cloud of the fog are related one to the other; (21) and when the spirit of rain exits from its store, the envoys come and open its receptacle, and precipitate it.

13 And when it is sprinkled over all the earth, it unites with the water that is on the 140

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

ground; (22) for the waters are for those who dwell on the earth, because they are a nourishment for the dry land, which comes from the Most High, Who is in heaven.

14 This is why there is a regulation for the quantity of rain, and the envoys are assigned it.

15 (23) These things I saw in the vicinity of the garden of the righteous [Pardë´ç] (`Ë´then, the garden of the righteous).

Back to top Chapter 60 (61) 1 In those days I saw how long ropes were given to those envoys and they put on wings, and flew towards the north. [Chapter 69: 3] 2 And I inquired of the envoy, saying: 141

“Why have they taken those long ropes and left?”

He said: “They are gone forth to measure.”

3 The Envoy who went with me told me: “These bring to the righteous the measures of the righteous and the cords of the righteous so that they may depend on the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits forever and ever.

4 The elect shall begin to dwell with the Elect One, 5 And these are the measures which shall be given them for persuasion, and which shall strengthen the words of righteousness.

6 (5) These measures shall reveal all the secrets of the depth of the earth 7 and those who have been destroyed in the desert, and who have been devoured by 142

wild beasts, or by the fish of the sea, those shall be able to return, sustained by the day of the Elect One; for none shall perish in the presence of the Sovereign of spirits, nor shall any be capable of perishing.

8 (6) All those who dwell in the heights of the heavens have received a commandment, a combined power, voice, and splendor, like fire.

9 (7) And with their first words, they blessed Him, exalted Him, they praised Him with wisdom, and have been granted wisdom with the Word, and with the breath of life.

10 (8) And the Sovereign of spirits shall seat the Elect One upon the throne of His Honor, 11 And He shall judge all the works of the pure ones and their deeds shall be weighed in a balance. (9) And when He shall lift up 143

His Countenance to judge their hidden ways according to the Word of the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits, and their progress in the Way of the righteous judgment of ’Ël `Elyówn, 12 Then with united voice they shall all speak, bless, honor, exalt, and proclaim purely the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits.

13 (10) He shall call together all the hosts of the heavens, all the pure ones and the hosts of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones): The Kruwvíym, the Srâphíym, and the ’Ophânníym [wheels], all the envoys of the Power, even all the envoys of Yâ-hwéh: namely, of the Elect One, and of the other Force over earth over the water.

(23) These who do not sleep but stand before Him are the Srâphíym, the Kruwvíym, and ’Ophânníym (70: 9)

Reason to capitalize this is that Yâ-hwéh is ’echâ´th, and that seven spirits dwell on Him. This voice is of Him speaking through those who are in Him. 19

3 And the spirit of righteousness was poured out over Him. 4 The Word of His mouth shall destroy all the sinners and all the unjust, and none of them shall survive before His Presence.

5 (3) In that day all the kings and the mighty and the exalted and those who took possession of the Land shall stand up, shall see Him, and shall recognize Him when He is 147

sitting on the throne of His Honor; justice shall be judged before Him 6 and no useless word shall be pronounced before Him. 7 (4) The pain shall come upon them as upon a woman in travail, whose labor is severe, when her child comes to the mouth of the pelvis, and she finds it difficult to bring forth.

10 (6) Then the kings, the mighty, and all who took possession of the Land shall honor Him Who has sovereignty over all things, Him Who was concealed; (7) for from the beginning the Son of ’Âthâ´m existed in secret, and the Most High preserved Him in 148

be executed because they have oppressed His sons and His elect. (12) And they shall become a spectacle for the pure ones and for His elect, who shall be made joyful at their cost; because the wrath of the Sovereign of spirits fell upon them 15 and His sword became drunk with their blood [Deuteronomy 32: 42]; (13) but the pure ones and elect shall be saved in that day; and they shall not thenceforwards see the face of the sinners and the unrighteous.

“Blessed is Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits, the Sovereign of kings, the Sovereign of the mighty ones, the Sovereign of the rich, the Sovereign of Honor, and the Sovereign of wisdom.

3 Over all the hidden things shall shine 4 Your Force from generation to generation; and Your Honor for the ages of the ages.

5 Deep and numberless are all Your secrets, and Your righteousness cannot be calculated.

6 (4) Now we know that we should honor and bless Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of kings, yea, He reigns over all the kings!”

7 (5) And they shall say: “We wish there were a pause in order to honor and thank and profess our persuasion in the presence of His Honor.

152

8 (6) And now we sigh for a small rest; but we do not find it; we rejected Him, so do not possess it. Light has passed away from before us; and darkness is our dwelling for the ages of the ages.

9 (7) For we did not believe in Him, nor have we praised the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of kings, [and we have not honored Yâ-hwéh in all His works;] instead we have trusted in the scepter of our dominion and of our honor.

10 (8) So during the day of our suffering and of our trouble He did not save us, neither shall we find rest to confess that our Sovereign is trustworthy in all His works, in all His judgments, and in His righteousness, 11 and in His judgments He pays no respect to persons; (9) so we must depart from His presence, on account of our deeds 153

12 and all our sins have been justly accounted.”

13 (10) Then shall they say to each other: “Our lives are satiated with the instruments of crime and unjust riches; 14 But that does not preserve us from descending to the center of the womb of Sh’ówl!”

15 (11) Afterwards, their countenances shall be filled with darkness and shame before the Son of ’Âthâ´m, they shall be expelled from His presence, and the sword shall remain before their faces [to expel them].

1 In those days Nóach saw that the earth became deviated, and that its destruction was imminent.

2 Then he departed from there and went to the limits of the land, to the dwelling of his great-grandfather Chanówkh.

3 And he cried out, and said to him three times with a bitter voice: “Hear me! Hear me! Hear me!”

(3) I told him: “Tell me, what is occurring upon the earth for it to suffer such grave labors, and tremble violently? I may perish with it!

4 Following this there was a great shaking on the earth, and then a voice sounded from the heavens and I fell down on my face!

(5) But Chanówkh, my great-grandfather who came, stayed close by me and 5 he said to me: 156

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

“Why have you cried out to me with a bitterness and weeping?

6 For a commandment has gone forth from Yâ-hwéh against those who dwell on the earth, that they may be completely destroyed; for they all have known the secrets of the Watchers, all the violence of the adversaries, all their occult powers, the power of the evildoers, each power of those who commit sorcery, as well as the power of those who make molten images in the whole earth: 7 how silver is produced from the dust of the earth, and how tin originates in the earth, (8) and lead and bronze are not being produced from the earth as at first, rather a spring produces it 8 and there is a prominent envoy staying there, and that envoy struggles to prevail.”

157

The Scroll of Chanówkh

9 Afterwards my great-grandfather Chanówkh grabbed me by the hand, lifted me up, and told me: “Go, for I have asked the Sovereign of spirits respecting this shaking of the earth.

(10) He has replied to me, “On account of their injustice, their judgments have been determined, and it shall never be detained by Me because of the sorceries that they have researched and learned; the earth and those who dwell on it shall be destroyed.”

(11) Respecting those envoys, there shall be no opportunity for their repentance, 10 because they have revealed what was secret and are damned, but concerning you, my son, They have looked into the occult, and they are those who have been judged; but not you, my son. The Sovereign of 158

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

spirits knows that you are pure, and not at fault and blameless concerning the occult.

11 (12) He will establish your name among those of the pure ones, and will preserve you among those who dwell upon the earth.

He will establish your seed in righteousness, for royalty and for great honors; and from your seed shall spring forth righteous ones and pure ones without number forever.”

Back to top Chapter 65 (66) 1 After this he showed me the envoys of punishment, who were prepared to come, and to unleash the might of the waters that are under the earth: 159

The Scroll of Chanówkh

2 That they may be for judgment, and for the destruction of all those who remain and dwell upon the earth.

3 (2) And the Sovereign of spirits commanded the envoys who went forth, not to raise up the waters rather that they should repress them.

4 For those envoys presided over all the might of the waters. (3) Then I went out from the presence of Chanówkh.

Back to top Chapter 66 (67) 1 In those days the Word of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) came to me, and said:

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

“Nóach, look, your lot has ascended up to Me, a spotless lot, a lot of love and uprightness.

2 So now the envoys are constructing a wooden structure and when they finish their task, I will extend My hand upon it and preserve it, 3 and the Seed of Life shall germinate from it, and a change shall take place, so that the dry land shall not remain unoccupied. (3) I will establish your Seed before Me forever and ever, I shall disseminate those who dwell with you and it shall not be barren, rather it shall be blessed and multiplied on the surface of the earth within the name of Yâ-hwéh. [Disclosure 15: 4] 4 He shall confine the Watchers who have demonstrated unrighteousness, in that burning valley [Chapter 53] (which at first my great-grandfather Chanówkh showed 161

The Scroll of Chanówkh

me in the west), near where there were mountains of gold and silver, of iron, of tin, and lead.” [Chapter 51: 1-2] 5 I looked at that valley, in which there was great perturbation, and where the waters were troubled.

6 And when all this happened, from that burning molten mass of metal and from the agitation which troubled them in that place, there arose a strong smell of sulfur, which became mixed with the waters; and that valley where the Watchers, who had been guilty of seduction, burned underneath its soil.

7 From its valleys flow rivers of fire, where those Watchers are punished, who have seduced the inhabitants of the earth.

8 “In these days, these waters shall be used by the kings, the mighty, the exalted, and 162

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

the inhabitants of the earth, for the fitness of the body, and for the punishment of the spirit, 9 And their spirits shall be full of lust, that their flesh shall be punished because they have rejected the Sovereign of spirits, and although they shall be aware of their condemnation day by day, even so they shall not believe in His name.

10 (9) And as the burning of their bodies shall be severe, thus shall their spirits undergo a change forever.

11 Because no one shall utter a word of the Lie against the Sovereign of spirits.

12 (10) Because judgment shall come upon them because they trusted in their carnal lust21, and rejected the spirit of Yâ-hwéh.

Bá`al and `Ashtârówth worship are based on carnal lust, and the names of the gods worshipped today are based on these.

13 (11) In those days shall the waters of that valley be changed; for when the Watchers are punished in them, the springs of water change their temperature, 14 And when the envoys shall raise the water of the springs they become cold.”

(12) I heard Miykhâ’Ë´l answering, and He said: “This judgment, with which the Watchers are judged, is a testimony against the kings, the mighty, and those who take possession of the Land.

15 (13) For these waters of judgment shall be for their curing, and for the death of their bodies. But they shall not perceive or believe that the waters will be exchanged, and become a fire, which shall blaze for the age.”

Back to top Chapter 67 (68) 1 After this my great-grandfather Chanówkh gave me the interpretation of all the secrets in the scroll and in the parables that had been given to him, and he summarized them for me in the words of the scroll of parables.

2 That day Miykhâ’Ë´l spoke and said to Rphâ’Ë´l: “The Force of the spirit impels Me, and makes Me strain for the severity of the condemnation for the secrets and the punishment of the envoys. Who could endure the rigorous sentence which has been executed and before which they are undone?”

(3) Again Miykhâ’Ë´l spoke and said to pure Rphâ’Ë´l: 165

The Scroll of Chanówkh

“Does anyone exist whose heart would not be touched by this, and whose reins would not be troubled by this 3 sentence that has been uttered against those who have been cast away?

(4) But it occurred, that when Miykhâ’Ë´l arrived before the Sovereign of spirits, 4 He said to Rphâ’Ë´l: “I shall not take up their portion before the sight of Yâ-hwéh, since the Sovereign of spirits is furious with them; for they have conducted themselves as if they were sovereigns. (5) Therefore all the hidden [condemnation] shall come against them for the ages of the ages.

5 Since neither shall an envoy nor a man receive a portion of it; but they alone have received their own judgment for the ages of the ages.

Back to top Chapter 68 (69) 1 After this judgment, they shall be astonished and it will make them tremble, for that [condemnation] shall be exhibited to the inhabitants of the earth.”

2 Here are the names of these Watchers: Shemiychâzâ´h, who was the foremost, and in sequence following him, Ar'taqof, Rama'el, Kokab'el, -'el [Turel], Ra'ma'el, Dani'el, Zeq'el, Baraq'el, 'Asa'el, Harmoni, Matra'el, 'Anan'el, Sato'el, Shamsi'el, Sahari'el, Tumi'el, Turi'el, Yomi'el, y Yehadi'el.

3 And those which follow are the names of his envoys, of his leaders of hundreds and fifties.

167

The Scroll of Chanówkh

4 The first, who lamented it(24), was who induced all the sons of the heavens and caused them to descend on earth, and seduced them with the daughters of ’Âthâ´m.

(24) Yeqúwn means “he lamented”, most translations err and think this is another name for Shemiychâzâ´h.

5 The name of the second is Asbe'el, gave an evil counsel to the sons of the heaven, and led them to corrupt themselves with the daughters of ’Âthâ´m.

6 The name of the third is G'adri'el: he revealed to the daughters of men all the ways to give death.

7 It was he who led astray Chauwâ´h and he is who taught to the sons of ’Âthâ´m the instruments of death: the shield, the 168

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

breastplate, and the swords for slaughter, and every instrument of death.

8 (7) From his hand they proceeded against those who live on the earth since that day and for all the generations.

9 (8) The name of the fourth is Panamu'el: this one showed the sons of ’Âthâ´m what is bitter and what is sweet, 10 And revealed to them all the secrets of his wisdom.

11 (9) He taught the sons of ’Âthâ´m to [understand letters and to] write with ink and papyrus 12 Therefore numerous have been those who have been deviated due to it, from its beginning even to this day.

13 (10) For men were not brought to the world for the purpose to support their belief with ink and with paper; 169

The Scroll of Chanówkh

14 (11) Rather, the sons of ’Âthâ´m have been created with the intentions that they might live pure and righteous so that 15 Death, which destroys everything, might not reach them; 16 But by fault of this knowledge of theirs they perish, and its power devours them.

17 (12) The name of the fifth is K'asdeya'el: he showed the sons of ’Âthâ´m every strike of the spirits and the gods: 18 The strike of the embryo in the womb for it to abort, the bite of the serpent, the strike which comes over with the mid-day heat [Psalms 91: 6], by the offspring of the serpent, the name of which is Taba'et.(25) (25) Most likely Strong’s 2880, Ţibcháth.

Literally, “slaughter”, a reference to the great persecution by the image of the beast after he violates the pure place.

19 (13) This is the task of the Lamb of the Power (Kasviy’Ë´l [from Strong’s #3775 and #410]) [The Glad Tidings of Yâhuwchânâ´n 1: 29]: He revealed to the pure ones the Chief of the oath [Yâhuwshúa` = Yâ-hwéh is deliverance/wealth], Who dwells in the Honor of the Most High, 20 His name is among the ibexes(26) [Chanówkh 89: 15]. (14) This One [the Most High] asked Miykhâ’Ë´l to reveal to them the secret name (Yâhuwshúa`), in order that they might understand that pure name [meaning of Yâhuwshúa`: “Yâ-hwéh is deliverance/ wealth”], and thus make mention of the oath, because those who have revealed every secret thing to the sons of ’Âthâ´m tremble before this name and oath.

(26) Source text: “Its name is Beka”. A reference to verse 22, “Aka'e”, with the `Ivríyth article “B” still attached, meaning “among”. The ibexes (`Ivríyth ’Aqqów, from Strong’s #0689 in the singular) are referred to as being those sheep whose eyes are opened to see the Truth, also seen as the seeing believers in Chanówkh 89: 15.

21 (15) Here is the power of that oath; for strong it is, and powerful.

22 And He arranged this oath of the ibexes(27) by the instrumentality of Miykhâ’Ë´l.

“Ibexes” in `Ivríyth was transliterated here, as explained in above note (26)

24 Even the heavens were suspended before the world was made.

25 (17) By means of it, has the land been founded above the water, while from the most concealed parts of the mountains proceed forth beautiful waters, from the creation of the world until eternity.

26 (18) By this oath the sea has been formed, and for its foundation, 27 during the period of the fury He established the sand against it, and she does not dare to invade further since the creation of the world until the age, (19) and by this oath the depths are firm and stable and do not move from their station from age to age.

28 (20) By this oath the luminary orb and moon complete their route without disobeying the command given to them forever and ever.

173

The Scroll of ChanĂłwkh

29 (21) By this oath the stars follow their course; 30 He calls them by their names, and they return an answer, from age to age, 31 (22) likewise, the spirits of the waters of the winds and of all the breezes from all the regions of the earth.

32 (23) There are kept the voice of thunder, and the splendor of the lightning, 33 And there are kept the stores of hail, frost, snow, rain, and dew.

34 (24) All these profess and laud it before the Sovereign of spirits 35 And they praise Him with all their energy so He sustains them in all that act of thanksgiving, while they laud, praise, and exalt the name of Yâ-hwÊh, the Sovereign of spirits forever and ever.

174

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

36 (25) This oath is powerful and through it, their paths are preserved and their course shall not be destroyed.

37 (26) And there was great joy among them, 38 They blessed, honored, and exalted Yâhwéh because the name of the Son of ’Âthâ´m has been revealed to them. [Yâhuwshúa`] 39 (27) He sat upon the throne of His Honor; and the sum of the judgment has been given to Him, the Son of ’Âthâ´m: and He shall make sinners be expelled and destroyed from the face of the earth, (28) while those who deviated them shall be bound with chains 40 And in the place where they had been gathered for the destruction, they shall be imprisoned and all their works will disappear from the face of the earth. (29) And thenceforward nothing will corrupt itself, for this Son of ’Âthâ´m has appeared and has 175

seated Himself upon the throne of His Honor.

41 Everything wicked shall depart from before His face; and the Word of the Son of ’Âthâ´m shall go forth and shall be strengthened by the presence of the Sovereign of spirits.

42 This is the third parable of Chanówkh.

Back to top Chapter 69 (70) 1 And it occurred after this, that the name of the Son of ’Âthâ´m Who lived with the Sovereign of spirits was elevated upwards and away from those who inhabit the earth; 2 And it was elevated above in the chariot of the spirit, and the name disappeared from their midst.

3 Since that day I was not counted anymore among them, and He seated me between two regions, between the north and the west, there where the envoys had taken ropes to measure for me the place for the elect and the righteous(28).

(28) According to 59: 14, this was in the vicinity of the garden of the righteous (`Ë´then), Pardë´ç

4 There I shall22 see the forefathers and the righteous ones who through the First dwell in that place.

Back to top

This is put in future tense by a possible waw-conversive rule in `Ivríyth, because according to scriptures, the forefathers and the righteous were not dwelling in the garden until Yâhuwshúa` delivered them there following His crucifixion after the great four days (the year 4001).

Chapter 70 (71) Chanówkh transferred and concealed (To the `Ivríym 11: 5) 1 And then it occurred that my spirit was transferred, and it ascended into the heavens, and I saw the sons of ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones). They were treading on flames of fire, their garments were white, and their countenances gleamed like crystal.

2 I saw two rivers of fire, the light of this fire shimmered like the Jacinth [dark blue], 3 Then I fell on my face before the Sovereign of spirits.

4 (3) The Envoy Miykhâ’Ë´l23 was Who had taken me by my right hand, lifted me up, and led me into every secret and revealed to me the secret of justification; To the `Ivríym 11: 5 says Yâ-hwéh transferred Chanówkh. Here he says Miykhâ’Ë´l did this, further confirming that Miykhâ’Ë´l is a title for Yâ-hwéh’s Person, the Son. 23

178

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

5 (4) He showed me all the secrets of the limits of the heavens, and all the stores of the stars, of the luminaries, from whence they dawn in the presence of the pure ones.

6 (5) And He transferred my spirit into the heaven of heavens 7 and I saw that there was a building made of crystal, 8 And among those crystals, flames of living fire. (6) My spirit looked around the circumference at what surrounded this flaming building, and on each of its four corners, there were fountains of living fire.

9 (7) Surrounding it were Srâphíym, Kruwvíym, and ’Ophânníym(28): these are those who never sleep, but guard the throne of His Honor.

(28) ’Ophânníym. The “wheels” of Ezek. 1: 15-21 (Charles, p. 162).

179

The Scroll of Chanówkh

10 (8) And I saw innumerable envoys, thousands of thousands, and ten-thousands of ten-thousands surrounding that building, 11 (9) And Miykhâ’Ë´l, Rphâ’Ë´l, Gavriy’Ë´l, Tsuwriy’Ë´l [Pniy’Ë´l source English translation] and an innumerable multitude of envoys of the Pure One. 12 (10) With them was the Head of the Days, Whose head was white and pure as wool, and His garments were indescribable.

Chanówkh pleases Yâ-hwéh (To the `Ivríym 11: 5) 13 (11) Then I fell upon my face, while all my body fainted, and my spirit became transfigured.

14 I cried out with a loud voice, with a spirit of power and I blessed, praised, and exalted.

15 (12) And these blessings that proceeded from my mouth were considered well 180

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

pleasing in the presence of this Head of the Days.

16 (13) And the Head of the Days came with Miykhâ’Ë´l, Gavriy’Ë´l, Rphâ’Ë´l and Tsuwriy’Ë´l, and an innumerable multitude of envoys.

17 (14) Then He came to me, and with His voice bade me shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation)(29), saying: “This is the Son of ’Âthâ´m Who has been begotten by the Righteousness [ZkharYâ´hu 6: 11-1224], and Righteousness shall reside upon Him

“…And you shall take silver and gold and you shall make crowns and you shall set it on the head of YÂHUWSHÚA` the son of Yâhuwtsâthâ´q [the Righteousness of Yâ-hwéh], the high priest: And you shall talk to him, saying: “This says Yâ-hwéh of hosts:” saying: “Here is a man, his name is of the Branch, and He [the Branch] shall branch out from His depths and He shall build the temple of Yâ-hwéh: yes, He is Who shall build the temple of Yâhwéh, and He [the Branch] is Who shall lift up Majesty, and He [Majesty] shall sit and He shall rule upon His throne, and He [the Branch] shall be Priest beside His throne, and the advice of peace shall be between the two of Them.”

24

The Scroll of Chanówkh

(29) Source translations say “greeted” or “saluted” here, a term that is translated “bade shâlówm”, which is consistent with the context in verse 19.

18 and the righteousness of the Head of the Days shall not forsake Him.” 19 (15) He said: “On you shall He confer shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) by His name of the world to come; for from thence has shâlówm gone forth since the creation of the world [2 Qorinthíym 5: 19, Yâhuwchânâ´n 14: 27] 20 and thus shall the shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) be on you for always and all eternity.

21 (16) All shall walk in His Way and while righteousness shall never forsake Him, 182

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

22 All shall dwell with Him, with Him their inheritance and from Him they shall not be separated ever, nor for all eternity.

23 (17) And many shall be the days with this Branch of ’Âthâ´m 24 and shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation) and the correct Way shall be for the righteous, in the name of Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of spirits, eternally.”

Back to top Chapter 71 (72) 1 The scroll of the revolutions of the luminaries of heaven, the interrelations between them, according to their respective classes, their respective range and their respective season, each according to their respective names and the places where they 183

The Scroll of Chanówkh

emerge, and their respective months, which `Uwriy’Ë´l, the envoy of the Pure One who was with me and who is their guide, showed me and disclosed all their laws exactly how they are and how all the years of the world are observed for the age, until the new creation shall be completed, which shall last for eternity.

The Law of the solar year 2 This is the first law of the luminaries, the luminary of the shémesh (luminary orb), which has its emergence in the eastern gates of the sky and its setting in the western gates of the sky.

3 I saw six gates whence the luminary orb emerges; and the gates where the luminary orb sets, 4 and the moon emerges and is hidden through these gates, just as the leaders of the 184

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

stars and those who guide them. Six gates are to the east and six to the west, 5 One after the other in rigorous order and besides many windows to the right and to the left of these gates.

6 (4) First there appeared there that great luminary, whose name is the shémesh (luminary orb) and whose lit area is like the circumference of the skies, and is totally full of a fire that illuminates and scorches.

7 (5) By the vehicle in which it ascends, the wind blows.

8 And the luminary orb sets in the sky, and returning opposite the north to proceed towards the east, is led so as to enter by that gate, and illuminate the face of the sky.25 Some may scoff and say the luminary orb does not go around the earth, the earth orbits the luminary orb. Remember that in space, motion is relative, and though it is thus, it depends on your perspective. If in the beginning Yâ-hwéh chose the heavens and the earth, not the luminary orb moon and stars, this is related from the perspective of those chosen.

25

185

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

9 (6) During the first month(30), by this same manner, it emerges by the great gate, (30) This first lunar month of the year is determined by the next chapter verse 4-5 saying it is the month in which the solar equinox comes while the moon is in its waxing phase, prior to its midmonth full moon, not by human traditions about barley.

10 which is the fourth of those six gates, which are at the rising of the luminary orb.

11 (7) And in the fourth gate, through which the luminary orb emerges the first month, there are twelve open windows; from which issues out a flame, when they are opened in their proper periods.

12 (8) When the luminary orb dawns, it emerges from this fourth gate for thirty 186

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

consecutive days, and it sets exactly through the fourth gate in the west of the sky.

13 (9) During that period each day is lengthened than the day before, and each night curtailed than the night before [for thirty days]. (10) And at that moment the day has lengthened by a ninth part at the expense of the night: 14 The day becomes equal to ten parts, and the night exactly eight parts.

15 (11) Then the luminary orb leavens this fourth gate and sets through the fourth, and returns to the fifth eastern gate at the thirtieth morning, after which it emerges from and sets through the fifth gate.

16 (12) Then the day becomes lengthened by a second portion, so that it becomes eleven parts; while the night becomes shortened, and becomes only seven parts.

187

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

17 (13) And it returns to the east, and enters by the sixth gate and emerges, and it sets through the sixth gate for thirty-one days, on account of its sign.

18 (14) At that moment, the day is longer than the night, the day becomes twice as long as the night; and becomes equal to twelve parts; 19 But the night is shortened, and becomes equal to six parts. (15) Then the luminary orb rises up to shorten the day and to lengthen the night, 20 So the luminary orb returns to the east to enter through the sixth gate and emerges through it and to set, during thirty mornings.

21 (16) When the thirty mornings have passed, the luminary orb has diminished the day by precisely one part, so that it becomes equal to eleven parts and the night to seven.

188

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

22 (17) Then the luminary orb leaves the west through that sixth gate and proceeds to the east and emerges through the fifth gate during thirty mornings, and sets in the west, again through the fifth gate of the west.

23 (18) At that moment the day diminishes by another part and becomes equal to ten parts and the night to eight.

24 (19) Then the luminary orb leaves from the fifth gate and sets through the fifth gate of the west and rises through the fourth gate for thirty-one mornings, on account of its sign and it sets in the west.

25 (20) At that moment the day is the same length as the night and becomes equal to it: the night has nine parts and the day nine parts.

26 (21) Then the luminary orb leaves that gate and sets in the west, and returning to the east emerges through the third gate for 189

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

thirty mornings and it sets in the west through the third gate.

27 (22) At that moment the night is longer than the day and than the nights before, and each day is shorter than the day before until the thirtieth morning; the night is equal to exactly ten parts and the day to eight.

28 (23) The luminary orb which leaves through the third gate and sets in the third gate in the west returns to come up in the east and emerge through the second gate of the east for thirty days 29 and the same way, it sets through the second gate in the west of the sky.

30 (24) At that moment the night is equal to eleven parts, and the day, seven.

31 (25) Then the luminary orb which dawns at that time through that second gate and sets in the west through the second gate, 190

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

returns to the east, proceeding through the first gate, for thirty-one mornings 32 and sets through the first gate in the west.

33 (26) At that moment that night has lengthened to the point where it is twice the length of the day: 34 The night is equal to twelve parts precisely, while the day to six.

35 (27) The luminary orb that has completed this section of its orbits, returns again over them and 36 enters through that first of its gates for thirty mornings and sets in the west through the opposite one.

37 (28) At that moment the night diminishes in its length one part, and the night becomes equal to eleven parts, and 38 the day to seven.

191

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

39 (29) Then the luminary orb returns, and enters through the second gate of the east.

40 and it returns by this section of its orbit for thirty mornings, rising and setting.

41 (30) At that moment the duration of the night is decreases and it becomes equal to ten parts, and the day to eight. (31) Then the luminary orb leaves from that second gate and sets in the west and returns to the east and emerges through the third gate for thirty-one mornings, and sets in the west of the sky.

42 (32) At that moment the night has become shortened and it becomes equal to nine parts and the day becomes equal to nine parts, the night is equal with the day. The year has precisely three hundred and sixtyfour days. (Compare Jubilees 6: 32) 43 (33) The lengthening of the day and night, and the contraction of the day and 192

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

night, are indicated by the path of the luminary orb.

44 (34) By means of this path is the day lengthened daily, and the night greatly shortened.

45 (35) This is the law of the path of the luminary orb and its return [to each gate], according to which it returns and emerges sixty times(31). This is the great Hëylë´l (luminary) that He names the luminary orb forever and ever.

(31) That is, it is sixty days in the same gates, viz. Thirty days twice every year (Laurence, p. 97).

46 (36) The one which exalts itself is the great luminary, which is named after its own appearance, as Yâ-hwéh has commanded.

193

The Scroll of Chanówkh

47 (37) And thus how it emerges it sets, neither shrinking nor resting, but running its course by day and by night; and its light shines seven times greater than that of the moon(32), though when observing both, their dimensions are equal.

(32) The Aramaic texts more clearly describe how the moon's light waxes and wanes by a half of a seventh part each day.

Here in the Ethiopic version, the moon is thought of as two halves, each half being divided into seven parts. Hence, the “fourteen portions” of 72: 9-10 (Knibb, p.

171).

Back to top Chapter 72 (73) 194

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

1 After this law I saw another law, which dealt with the inferior luminary, the name of which is the moon, and the orbit of which is as the circumference of the sky, 2 and the vehicle by which it ascends and the light are given to it by measure; 3 and every month its emergence and its setting become modified; its days are like the days of the luminary orb, and when the moon is full,(33) its light is a seventh part from the light of the luminary orb.

(33) And when its light is full (source text). I.e., when the moon is full (Knibb, p. 171).

4 Thus it rises: when during its first [waxing] phase it emerges towards the east on the thirtieth day 195

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

5 And during that time-period it appears, it becomes for you the first of the months on the thirtieth day, simultaneously when the luminary orb is within the [fourth] gate through which the luminary orb emerges.

6 (5) It is visible in the half of the seventh part; the whole of its orb is void without light, with the exception of a half seventh, the fourteenth part of its light. (6) And in a day it receives a half seventh part of its light, its light increments half of the seventh part of it. (7) Its sets with the luminary orb 7 and when the luminary orb emerges, the moon emerges with it, and receives a half of a seventh part of light, 8 and on that night, when it commences its morning, [prior to the day of the month,] the moon sets with the luminary orb.

9 And on that night it is dark in its fourteenth part, that is, in the half seventh; (8) 196

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

but it rises on that day with one-seventh portion precisely and emerges and leans towards the rising of the luminary orb, 10 and during each of its [waxing] days its light increases in the other thirteen parts.

Back to top Chapter 73 (74) 1 Then I saw another process and a regulation for her, how by means of this law the cycle of its months are completed; (2) and all this, `Uwriy’Ë´l showed me, the envoy of the Pure One who directed all of those.

2 I wrote down their stations just as he showed them to me, 3 and I drew its moons, just as they occur, and the aspect of their light, until fifteen days are completed.

197

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

4 (3) By each of its half-seventh portions it fills all its light to the east and by each halfseventh part it fills its darkness towards the west.

5 (4) On certain months it changes its settings; and on certain months it follows its own path: (5) During two months the moon sets with the luminary orb, through the two gates which are in the middle, in the third and the fourth gate. (6) It emerges for seven days, and makes its circuit, 6 And again it returns to the gate whence the luminary orb emerges, (7) and when the luminary orb comes out through the sixth gate, 7 It [the moon] comes out for seven days, until it emerges from the fifth gate.

8 And again it returns during seven days through the fourth gate, and completing all 198

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

its light, it wanes, and enters through the first gate in eight days, 9 (8) And it returns during seven days through the fourth gate from which the luminary orb goes forth.

10 (9) Thus have I seen their stations, how the moon emerges and the luminary orb sets during those days.

11 (10) If we add up five years, the luminary orb has an excess of thirty days, and all of days, which these five-year periods add up to upon completion, are three hundred sixty four days. (11) The excess of the luminary orb and stars comes to be six days; in five years, at six days per year, equals thirty days, 12 So that the moon has thirty days less than the luminary orb and the stars.

13 (12) The luminary orb and the stars carry on the whole year precisely, such that they 199

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

do not advance nor move back their positions not even a single day for all eternity and they complete their years with correct precision in three hundred and sixty-four days. (13) In three years the days are one thousand and ninety-two; in five years they are one thousand eight hundred and twenty; and in eight years two thousand nine hundred and twelve days.

14 But for the moon alone, its days in three years amount to one thousand and sixty-two days, so in five years it lacks fifty days, (15) It has in five years one thousand seven hundred seventy days; thus the days of the moon in eight years are two thousand eight hundred and thirty-two days.

15 (16) At eight years, it is behind by eighty days, 16 (17) The year becomes completed [finishes] regularly according to the seasons 200

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

of the world, and the position of the luminary orb; which emerges through the gates from which it rises and it sets for thirty days.

Back to top Chapter 74 (75) 1 The leaders of the chiefs of the thousands who are assigned over all creation and over all the stars have to make with the four intercalated days, and being never separated from their office according to the calculation of the year, 2 these must serve four days that are not computed [in the calculation of the year.]

3 (2) Respecting them, men do err, for these luminaries render service precisely to the seasons of the world, one through the first 201

The Scroll of Chanówkh

gate, another through the third, another through the fourth, and another through the sixth gate.

4 And the shâlówm of the world gets completed in three hundred and sixty-fourth seasons. (3) For the signs, 5 The seasons, 6 The years, 7 And the days, `Uwriy’Ë´l showed me, the watcher to whom the Sovereign of Honor appointed over all the luminaries 8 of the sky and in the world, so that they might rule the face of the sky, be seen from the earth, and to be 9 the guides of the days and of the nights: the luminary orb, the moon, the stars, and all the auxiliary creations that circuit their orbits in the vehicle of the sky.

10 (4) In the same way `Uwriy’Ë´l showed me twelve gates open for the circuit of the 202

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

vehicles of the luminary orb in the heavens, through them shoot forth the rays of the luminary orb, 11 and the heat expands upon the earth, when they are opened in their assigned seasons. (5) They also are useful for the winds and the spirit of the dew, when they are opened in the extremities of the skies.

12 (6) Twelve are the gates I saw in heaven, at the ends of the earth, through which emerge the luminary orb, the moon, the stars, and all the works of heaven, at their rising and setting.

13 (7) And many windows also are open to their right and to their left 14 and each window spreads heat during its season. These also are those gates from which the stars go forth, and in which they set according to their number according to what He has commanded.

203

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

15 (8) I have seen in the skies vehicles that circuit the world above those gates, and in them turn the stars that never set. (9) One of these is greater than all, which goes round the whole world.

Back to top Chapter 75 (76) 1 And at the extremities of the earth I saw twelve gates open for all the regions; from which the winds go forth and from them they blow over the earth.

2 Three of them are open over the face of the sky, three in the west, three on the right side of heaven [south], and three on the left [north]. (3) The first three are those that are towards the east, the next three are towards the south, the next three are towards the 204

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

north, and the next three are towards the west.

3 (4) Through four of them proceed winds that are for the curing of the earth and for its livening, and through eight proceed the jeopardizing winds, which when they are sent forth, destroy all the earth, the waters, and all there are in them: flora or fauna, both aquatic and terrestrial, and all that lives in it.

4 (5) First proceeds the western wind through the first eastern gate, and which inclines southwards. Through this go forth destruction, drought, heat, and desolation.

5 (6) Through the second gate, the middle one, proceeds the wind of the easterlies, the rain, fruitfulness, reanimation, and the dew.

And through the third gate proceeds the northeast wind, which is near to the north wind: cold and drought.

205

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

6 (7) After these, through the three gates which are south of the skies, proceeds principally through the first gate a southern wind which is to the south and which inclines eastwards, a hot wind.

7 (8) But through the second gate proceeds a southern wind, which they call south: dew, rain, well-being, and reanimation.

8 (9) Through the third gate proceeds a wind from the southwest: dew, rain, locusts and destruction.

9 (10) After these, proceeds a northern wind that comes from the seventh [first] door, towards the east, with dew, rain, locusts and desolation. (11) From the middle gate directly proceeds a wind with fitness, rain, dew, and prosperity. Through the third gate, which is inclined westwards, proceeds a wind with clouds, frost, snow, rain, dew, and locusts.

206

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

10 (12) After these are the winds of the west.

Through the first gate, which is inclined northwards, proceeds a wind with dew, frost, cold, snow, and chill. (13) Through the middle gate proceeds a wind with dew, rain, prosperity and blessing.

11 And through the last gate, which is inclined southwards, proceeds a wind with scarcity, ruin, scorching, and desolation.

12 That completes the twelve gates of the four quarters of the sky.

13 I have explained to you their full explanation, oh my son Mthuwshâ´lach.

Back to top Chapter 76 (77) 1 The orient is called the eastern (qâthíym), because it is the first (qéthem).

207

The Scroll of Chanówkh

2 The south is called midday (tsâhâráyim – two oil producers) because the Greatness dwells there, and in Him resides the Blessed One forever.

3 (2) The west has a name of diminution (yâm = basin), because there all the luminaries of heaven are diminished, and descend.

4 (3) The north is named the north (tsâphówn - hidden) because in it hide, reunite, and return all of the stars of the sky and head towards the east of the skies. The east is called orient because from there come up the heavenly bodies and from there they arise. I saw three divisions of the earth for the sons of ’Âthâ´m to inhabit it, one for all of the seas and the rivers, another for the seven [great islands

208

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

(v.8)26], and another for the Pardë´ç of the righteous.

5 (4) I saw seven mountains, higher than all the mountains existing on the earth, snow covers them, and days, seasons, and years depart from them and pass away.

6 (5) I saw seven rivers upon the earth, greater than all the rivers, one of which comes from the west and its water flows into the Great Sea [Mediterranean].

7 (6) Two others come from the north towards the sea, and their waters flow into the Sea of Reeds [Red Sea], on the east. (7) And the remaining four come out from the northern side, each towards their respective sea, two of them towards the Sea of Reeds, and two into a great sea, where also it is said there is a desert [Persian Gulf].

The seven here probably refer to the seven major land divisions, “islands” mentioned at the end of this same chapter, the continents, though Eurasia counts as one. It is unlikely that “the seven” refer to the Seven white men mentioned later in the scroll.

8 I saw seven great islands in the sea with the continent, and five in the high seas27.

Back to top Chapter 77 (78) 1 The names of the luminary orb are the following: the first is Oranyes, and the second Tomas.

2 and the moon has four names: The first is Asonya; the second, Ebela; the third, Benase; and the fourth, Era'el.

3 These are the two great luminaries, their circuits are as the circumference of the sky; and the dimensions of both their orbs are equal.

Though modern continents are considered seven, “the continent� here is Eurasia, so this and Africa are two, leaving the other five of the high seas to be N. America, S. America, Antarctica, Australia, and the other may be Greenland.

4 Within the orb of the luminary there are seven portions of light that are added to it more than to the moon and it is transferred to it by full measure until the seventh portion extracted from the luminary orb. (5) They set and enter through the gates of the west, circuit through the north, and return through the gates of the east over the face of the sky.

5 (6) When the moon rises, a half of a seventh portion of its light shines in the sky to appear over the earth and it fills day after day, until the 6 fourteenth day when the whole of its light is completed.

7 Its light grows by fifteenths and it is completed from day to day until the fifteenth day, in which the whole of its light is completed, according to the signs of the years.

211

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

8 The moon waxes and reaches its phases in half sevenths.

9 (8) During its waning phase the moon decreases it light: on the first day its light decreases a fourteenth part; on the second day it decreases a thirteenth part; on the third day a twelfth part; on the fourth day an eleventh part; on the fifth day a tenth part; on the sixth day a ninth part; on the seventh day it decreases an eighth part; on the eighth day it decreases a seventh part; on the ninth day it decreases a sixth part; on the tenth day it decreases a fifth part; on the eleventh day it decreases a fourth part; on the twelfth day it decreases a third part; on the thirteenth day it decreases a second part; on the fourteenth day it decreases a half of its seventh part; until on the fifteenth day all the remainder of its light disappears.

10 (9) On certain months the moon has twenty-nine days, 11 and other times twenty-eight days.

12 (10) And `Uwriy’Ë´l taught me another calculation, having shown me when light is transferred to the moon, and onto which side of it light is shed onto it from the luminary orb.

13 (11) During all of the waxing phase of the moon, its light is transferred before the luminary orb during fourteen days until it is completely illuminated and its light is full in the sky.

14 (12) But when it is wholly extinguished, its light is consumed in space; and on the first day it is called the new moon, because from that day its light waxes.

15 (13) It becomes a full moon precisely at the moment in which the luminary orb 213

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

descends into the west while the moon ascends at night from the east.

16 and the moon shines during the whole night, until the luminary orb emerges before it, and the moon is observed in front of the luminary orb.

17 (14) On the side where light comes to the moon, through there it wanes again, until all its light disappears, and the days of the month are completed, 18 and its orb becomes empty without light.

19 (15) For three months it comes out in thirty days and in its period it comes out for three months of twenty-nine days each, in which it completes its waning in the first period of time and in the first gate, for one hundred and seventy-seven days.

20 (16) And at the time of its emergence it appears for three months of thirty days each, 214

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

and for three months it appears twenty-nine days each.

21 It appears during the night for twenty days each month.

Back to top Chapter 78 (79) 1 My son [Mthuwshâ´lach]: now I have taught you everything and the law of all the stars of heaven has concluded.

2 He taught me all their laws for all the days, for governing every season, for all the years and their finalization, for the prescribed rule for every month and every week, for twenty days each month, (3) and the waning of the moon, which begins through the sixth gate in which its light is completed.

3 (4) which happens in the first gate of its period and is completed at a hundred and seventy seven days, or counted in weeks, twenty-five weeks and two days.

4 (5) It falls behind exactly five days in the course of one period, with respect to the luminary orb and the ordinance of the stars and when this occurs, it is corrected. It looks like the image of a vision when its light falls behind.

5 (6) When it is found in its fullness, in the night this appearance looks like that of a man, who in the night appears like the image of the luminary orb in the sky and that there is nothing more in it except its light. Such is the appearance and the likeness of all the luminaries which `Uwriy’Ë´l, the great envoy, showed to me.

3 (2) In the days of sinners the years shall be shortened 4 and their seed shall arrive late to their lands and fields, everything done on earth shall be altered, and will not emerge in its season; the rain shall be withheld, and the skies shall withhold it.

5 (3) In those days the fruits of the earth shall be withheld, the fruits of the trees will not grow on time, and they shall be withheld.

6 They shall alter the ordinance of the month so (the moon) will not appear at its proper period. (5) But in those days the luminary orb shall be observed burning in the sky, extending the barrenness and it shall take place in the borders of the great vehicle in the west and it shall shine more than what corresponds to the ordinance of its light; (6) while many guides of the stars shall transgress the order, altering their orbits and tasks 7 so they shall not appear at the prescribed moment for them.

4 (3) Immediately I blessed the great Sovereign, Yâ-hwéh, the King of Honor for all eternity, because He has made all the creatures of the world, 5 And I praised Yâ-hwéh, for His patience and I blessed Him on behalf of the sons of ’Âthâ´m.

6 (4) At that time I said: “Blessed is the man, who shall die righteous and good, and against whom no record of unrighteousness has been written, and for whom one is not found on the Day of Judgment!”

220

7 (5) Then those three pure ones carried me and placed me on the earth in front of the gate of my house 8 and they said unto me: “Explain everything to Mthuwshâ´lach your son; and inform all your sons, that no flesh is righteous before Yâ-hwéh, for He is their Creator.

9 (6) We shall leave you one year with your son, until you give your instructions, so you may instruct your sons, write for them what you have seen and that you may testify to all of our sons; Afterwards, during the second year you shall be separated from them, (7) but your heart shall be strong because the good shall announce the justification to the elect; the righteous shall rejoice with the righteous and shall congratulate each other; (8) but the sinners shall die with sinners, 221

4 Blessed are all the righteous; blessed are all who walk in the Way of righteousness and who do not err like the sinners in the calculation of the days: 5 When the luminary orb circuits in the skies, it enters and emerges from each gate for thirty days, together with the leaders of the thousand classes of the stars; adding the four days which are intercalated in order to 223

The Scroll of Chanówkh

separate the four quarters of the year, which guide them and enter with them four days.

6 (5) Due to this, men err, and do not calculate them in the full calculation of the year; they are in error and they do not recognize it as they should, (6) because these are included in the calculation of the years, and are truly assigned forever; one to the first gate, another to the third, another to the fourth, and another to the sixth 7 So that the year is completed in three hundred and sixty-four days.

8 (7) Their calculation is correct and the count registered in them exact, for the luminaries, months, feasts, years, and days, it was shown and revealed to me by `Uwriy’Ë´l, to whom the Sovereign of all creation of the world has subordinated the hosts of the heavens. (8) He has power over the night and over the day, to make the light 224

10 These are the names of those who guide them, who watch that they enter in their time period, in order in their season, their month, in their period, with their power and in their position.

11 Their four guides, who separate the four quarters of the year, enter first. Soon thereafter, the twelve chiefs of their class who distinguish the months and for the three hundred and sixty-four days these leaders of a thousand are distinguishing the days, even for the four intercalated ones, are those who, as guides, divide the four quarters of the year.

14 (10) Then they began to beget wild beasts and birds.

15 There were multitudes of each species: lions, leopards, dogs, wolves, hyenas, wild pigs, foxes, squirrels, boars, falcons, 16 vultures, falcons, the eagles, and ravens.

244

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

17 Then in the midst of them was born another white bull(38), (38) ’Avrâhâ´m.

18 (11) And they began to bite each other.

The white bull that had been born in the midst of them, begot a wild ass [Yishmâ`Ë´’l] [Genesis 16: 12] but also a white yearling calf [Yitschâ´q]. The wild ass multiplied itself. (12) Then the white yearling calf(39), which was begotten by the white bull, procreated a black boar and a white ram.(40) (39) Yitschâ´q.

(40) `Ësâ´w and Ya`aqóv.

19 The boar [`Ësâ´w] procreated many swine, 245

The Scroll of Chanówkh

20 and the ram [Ya`aqóv] procreated twelve sheep.(41) (41) The twelve patriarchs.

21 (13) When these twelve sheep had grown up, they delivered one sheep from among them(42) to the wild asses.(43) (42) Yowçë´ph.

(43) Yishm`Ë’líym.

22 And those asses in turn delivered that sheep to the wolves,(44) (44) The Mitsráyim.

23 And the sheep grew up among the wolves.

246

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

24 (14) Then the ram brought all the eleven other sheep to dwell and graze with him among the wolves 25 and they multiplied and they became a flock of numerous sheep, and there was abundance of pasture for them.

26 (15) But the wolves began to oppress the flock even making their young perish 27 and casting their young in a current of water.

28 Then the sheep began to cry out for their young and to lament before their Sovereign. (16) One sheep(45) which had escaped from the wolves fled and went away to the wild asses [Kuwsh].

(45) Moshéh.

29 I saw while the flock complained, and cried terribly 247

The Scroll of Chanówkh

30 until the Sovereign of the flock descended at the voice of the sheep, from His lofty habitation He came to their side and made them graze.

31 (17) He called to that sheep that had escaped from the wolves and told him about the wolves, so she would make them understand that they were not to touch the sheep anymore.

32 (18) Then that sheep went to the wolves by the command of Yâ-hwéh and another sheep(46) met with her and went with her.

(46) ’Aharón.

33 They went and both of them entered together into the assembly of the wolves, by the command of Yâ-hwéh, talked to them and made them understand that 248

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

thenceforwards they were not to touch the sheep.

34 (19) From then on I observed that the wolves oppressed the sheep with more duress and with all of their forces and the sheep cried out loudly; (20) and their Sovereign came beside the sheep 35 and He began to strike those wolves and the wolves started lamenting, however the sheep became calm, and from that time they stopped crying out.

36 (21) I saw the sheep when they departed from among the wolves and the eyes of the wolves were dimmed and those wolves went forth pursuing the sheep with all their forces. (22) But the Sovereign of the sheep went with them guiding them, 37 All His sheep followed Him. 38 and His countenance was radiant, awesome and terrifying to the sight. (23) 249

The Scroll of Chanówkh

The wolves began to pursue these sheep, until they overtook them near a certain pond of water.(47) (47) The Reed Sea.

39 (24) But that lake became divided and the water stood up on either side before His face 40 and Yâ-hwéh guided them and He placed Himself between them and the wolves.

41 (25) As those wolves did not see the sheep anymore, they went into the middle of the pond and the wolves pursued the sheep and these wolves ran after them into the pool of water.

42 (26) And when they saw the Sovereign of the sheep, they turned to flee from before His face.

250

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

43 Then the water of the pool closed, and returned suddenly to its natural position and it filled with water. (27) I continued watching until all the wolves that went pursuing this flock perished, submerged and drowned, and the waters covered them.

44 (28) The flock left from these waters and went to a desolate place, in which there is neither water nor grass, and their eyes were opened and they saw.

45 Then I watched until the Sovereign of the flock let them graze, gave them water and grass, 46 and the sheep went and guided them.

47 (29) The sheep ascended to the top of a lofty rock and the Sovereign of the flock sent her to the middle of the flock and all of them kept their distance.

48 (30) Then I looked and behold, their Sovereign stood up before the flock and His 251

The Scroll of Chanówkh

appearance was powerful, magnificent, and terrifying, 49 and all of the flock saw Him and were afraid of Him. 50 (31) All of them were frightened and trembled before Him so they cried out to the lamb that was His second and to the other sheep who had been with him, and who were in the midst of them: “We are not able to stand before Yâhwéh, or to look upon Him!” 51 (32) Then that lamb that guided them went back, and ascended a second time to the top of that rock; 52 But the flock began to grow blind and to depart from the Way that he had indicated to them, without the lamb knowing such things.

252

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

53 (33) The Sovereign of the flock was greatly enraged against the flock, the lamb knew it and 54 descended from the top of that rock and came to the flock and found the majority 55 had become blind 56 and had wandered off of His Way. (34) When they saw him they began to be afraid at his face; 57 And became desirous of returning to their fold, 58 (35) Then the lamb [Moshéh] took with him other sheep [Lwiyyím] and went to the flock that had wandered 59 and slaughtered all of them, and they started to tremble at his countenance.

Then this lamb made all the flock that had wandered to return to their fold.

60 (36) I continued watching this dream until this lamb was transformed into a man, 253

The Scroll of Chanówkh

built an encampment(48) for the Sovereign of the flock and took all this flock to this encampment.

(48) An encampment. A tabernacle (Milik, p. 205).

61 (37) I kept watching until that the sheep that had joined the lamb that directed the sheep fell asleep. I observed until all the elder sheep had perished and smaller ones rose up in their place and they entered into a pasture and they approached a river of water(49).

(49) The river Yardë´n.

62 (38) Then the sheep that guided them and who had converted into a man, was separated from them, fell asleep 254

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

63 and all the sheep searched for her, and cried for her with great lamentation.

64 (39) I looked until they finished weeping for that sheep. Then they passed through the river of water 65 and that there arose other sheep that guided them(50) in the stead of those who had guided them who fell asleep after having guided them.

(50) The Judges of Yisrâ’Ë´l.

66 (40) I looked at the sheep until they entered into a beautiful region, into a pleasant and splendid land.

67 I saw those sheep until they became satiated and that encampment was in the midst of them in that pleasant land. (41) As soon as they opened their eyes, they went blind, until another sheep(51) arose and 255

The Scroll of Chanówkh

guided them and led all of them and their eyes were opened.

(51) Shmuw’Ë´l.

68 (42) The dogs, the foxes, and the wild boars began to devour these sheep until the Sovereign of the sheep raised a ram(52) from their midst to guide them. (43) This ram started butting on one side then another at those dogs, foxes, and wild boars, until he made them all perish.

(52) Shâ’úwl.

69 (44) But that sheep [Shmuw’Ë´l] whose eyes were opened, saw that the ram that was in the midst of the sheep was being abandoned by his honor 256

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

70 and he began to butt the sheep, tread upon them and to behave himself in an inappropriate way.

71 (45) Then their Sovereign of the sheep dispatched the lamb to another lamb(53) and raised him up to become a ram and to lead them instead of the ram who had been abandoned by his honor.

(53) Dâwíth.

72 (46) He went therefore beside him, and talked with him in secret and he ascended him to ram, made him a judge and pastor of the sheep, but during all these events, the dogs(54) oppressed the sheep.

(54) The Phlishttíym.

73 (47) The first ram pursued the second 257

The Scroll of Chan贸wkh

74 and this second left and fled from his presence, but I looked until those dogs [Phlishtt铆ym] knocked down that first ram.

75 (48) Afterwards that second ram arose and guided the sheep 76 and procreated numerous sheep and later fell asleep.

77 A smaller sheep(55) became a ram and was the judge and the leader in his place.

(55) Shl贸moh.

78 (49) Those sheep grew and multiplied 79 and all those dogs, foxes, and boars feared and fled far away.

80 That ram also butted and killed all the wild beasts and those beasts could not again prevail in the midst of the sheep, nor at any time ever snatch them away.

258

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

81 (50) And that house [Bëyth-’Ë´l] became large and wide, and a lofty and great tower was built by the sheep, it was built upon the house for the Sovereign of the sheep.

82 The encampment [tabernacle] had been low [humble], but the tower very high [exalted] 83 and the Sovereign of the sheep stayed upon it, and they offered a full table before Him. 84 (51) Afterwards I saw those sheep err again and go by various ways and abandon their house [Bëyth-’Ë´l].

85 The Sovereign of the sheep called from among them to some(56), and He sent them alongside them.

(56) The predicators.

259

The Scroll of Chanówkh

86 But the sheep began to kill these. (52) But one of them was saved and was not killed(57) she leaped, and cried out against the sheep that were desirous of killing her, (57) ’ËliyYâ´huw. (seen again 89: 21)

87 But the Sovereign of the sheep delivered her from the hands of the sheep, made her ascend and to dwell near me [Chanówkh (in Pardë´ç)].

88 (53) He sent still many other sheep [including His Son] to these sheep to testify to them and to lament over them.

89 (54) Afterwards I saw them abandon the house of their Sovereign [Bëyth-’Ë´l] and His tower, erring in everything and their eyes were closed, 90 I saw that the Sovereign of the sheep make a great slaughter with them, until 260

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

these sheep provoked the slaughter and betrayed His post. (55) He abandoned them in the power of the lions and the tigers, of the wolves and the hyenas, of the foxes and of all the wild beasts, [’Ashshúwr, Bâvél, Greece] 91 which began to tear the sheep in pieces.

92 (56) I saw them forsake His house and His tower and turn them over to the lions [Rome] for them to break them in pieces and devour them.

93 (57) I began to cry out with all my might, and to call the Sovereign of the sheep and made Him see that the sheep were being devoured by all the wild beasts.

94 (58) But He remained mute [Yshá`Yâhuw 53: 7] and when He saw them He was gladdened to see that they were devoured, swallowed up, and carried off, and abandoned them to become pasture for 261

The Scroll of Chanówkh

the beasts. (59) He summoned seventy pastors [Luwqá’ 10: 1-16], and delegated these sheep to them so they would take them to graze, (His pupils, Yâhuwchânâ´n’s Glad Tidings 21: 15-17) 95 and He said to the pastors and to their accomplices: “Let each one of you henceforwards take the sheep to graze, and whatsoever I command you, do; (60) I will deliver them to you duly counted 96 and I will tell you which must be destroyed and these, make them perish.”

And He delivered those sheep to them.

97 (61) Then He called to another(58), and said: “Observe and register everything that the pastors do to these sheep, since they destroy more than those which I have 262

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

commanded: [ZkharYâ´hu 11, YchezqË´’l 34: 1-10] (58) ’ËliyYâ´huw, per 89: 21. Being human and one of the persecuted sheep, he is uniquely qualified to make record of “Christian” excesses and slaughter as a 3rd party witness.

98 (62) every excess and slaying that shall be committed by the pastors, register it; how many they destroy in accordance with My command, and how in accordance with their own whim.

99 Put on the account of each pastor the destruction that he inflicts. (63) Later, read the result before Me: how many they have destroyed, and how many I delivered to them for destruction, so that this may be a testimony against them to know 263

The Scroll of ChanĂłwkh

every action of the pastors, that I may evaluate them and that they may see what they do and if they hold or not to what I have commanded them.

100 (64) However, they must not learn of this, you must not tell it to them nor should you warn them, instead only annotate every destruction which the pastors commit, one by one and at the moment, and exhibit all this before Me.�

(65) I saw when those pastors pastured in His time then they began to kill and destroy more sheep than they were offered 101 And they delivered these sheep to the hands of the lions (Pagan Rome). (66) The lions and the tigers devoured a great part of these sheep and the boars ate beside them. They burned that tower and 264

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

demolished that house [Bëyth-’Ë´l, MattithYâ´huw 23: 38]. (A.D. 70 Titus) 102 (67) I was extremely grieved for that tower because the house of the sheep was demolished 103 and then I could not see whether those sheep entered into that house.

104 (68) The pastors and their accomplices (Roman apostate “Universal Bishops” [Popes]), delivered those sheep (Yruwshâláim) to all the wild beasts (Islam), that they might devour them, but each of them had received a determined number and it was written for each one of them, by the other one [’ËliyYâ´huw] in a scroll, how many of them they had destroyed.

105 (69) Each pastor killed and destroyed more than were prescribed.

106 And I began to weep and lament on account of these sheep.

265

The Scroll of Chanówkh

107 (70) Then in the vision I observed the one who wrote [’ËliyYâ´huw 89: 21], how he wrote down each one that was destroyed by the pastors day after day and he carried it and exhibited all of his scroll and showed the Sovereign of the sheep all that which they truly had done, 108 and all those they had delivered up to destruction. (71) And the scroll was read before the Sovereign of the sheep and 109 He took the scroll in His hand, read it, sealed it, and archived it.

110 (72) After this, I saw that the pastors were taking them to pasture for twelve hours28 [5497-5997 (1524-2024 AD)] Since a day for Yâ-hwéh is a thousand years, this 12 hour period when Christians had access to scriptures and respite from Catholic genocide against the sheep is 500 years before the resuming of their slaughter on a worse scale called the “Great Tribulation” (Persecution) in verses 116-118. Therefore, it would extend from 5497 (1524 AD) to 5997 (2024 AD). 1524 was the turning point in the Protestant Reformation when Martin Luther was out of danger from the Papists, and when his (altered) scriptures were written to become available to the sheep.

28

266

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

111 And look! Three of these sheep(59) returned, arrived, entered and began building all that had been demolished of that house [Bë´yth-’´wen, YchezqË´’l 8: 17], (59) The “Yehuwthím” (racial Yâhuwthâ´h, Vinyâmíyn, and Lëwíy) returned in the 1880s but did not succeed at establishing a country.

112 But the wild boars(60) hindered them, and they did not prevail.

(60) The Palestinians, Moslems, and Arabs.

113 (73) Afterwards they began to build again as before(61), and raised up that tower, which was called a lofty tower.

267

The Scroll of Chanówkh

(61) The return of tribal “Yehuwthím”, Vinyâmíyn, and Lëwíy to the Land of Yisrâ’Ë´l in 1947.

114 And they began again to place a table before the tower, but all the bread that they had was contaminated and impure.

[YchezqË´’l 44: 6-8, Mal’âkhíy 1: 6-14] 115 (74) Concerning all this the eyes of the sheep were blinded and did not see and their pastors likewise did not 116 so He delivered them up for a greater destruction(62) to their pastors, who trod the sheep underfoot and devoured them.

(62) The Great Tribulation (4th seal)

117 (75) The Sovereign of the sheep kept Himself indifferent until all the sheep were dispersed throughout the field and they [the 268

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

“Yehuwthím”] mixed with them [the Christians], and they did not save them from the hands of the [2] beasts.

118 (76) He who had written the scroll (’ËliyYâ´huw) brought it, showed it, and read it before the Sovereign of the sheep; he implored and supplicated on behalf of them, and showed Him every act of the pastors and gave testimony before Him against the pastors. (77) Then taking the scroll, he deposited it with Him, and departed.

Back to top Chapter 89 (90) Roman Catholic dominance over Tsiyyówn 1 And I observed in this way until thirtyfive pastors had undertaken the pasturing and they completed their turns strictly(63): 269

The Scroll of Chanówkh

from the first, each one in turn received them in their hands, in order for each pastor to graze them in their respective turn.

(63) Symbolic for the Roman Catholic domination over Zion. (Yshá`Yâhuw 47: 6 “I was angry with My people so I dishonored My inheritance and I gave them into your hand: you did not show mercies to them, you made your yoke very heavy on the aged.”)

2 After this, in a vision I saw all the birds of prey of the skies come: eagles, vultures, kites and ravens; the eagles led all of those birds 3 and they began to devour the sheep, to peck out their eyes, and to devour their flesh.

270

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

4 (3) The sheep cried out because their flesh was being devoured by the birds.

5 I watched and groaned in my sleep against the pastor that grazed the sheep.

6 (4) I observed until those sheep were devoured by the eagles, the kites, and the vultures, which did not leave them any flesh, nor skin, nor tendons on them, and nothing was left but their bones, until the bones also fell upon the ground, and the sheep became very few.

Protestant prevalence over Zion 7 (5) I observed while twenty-three pastors(64) had grazed them and had strictly completed their turns fifty-eight times.

(64) The numbers thirty-five and twentythree make fifty-eight. Symbolic for Protestant prevalence over Zion. Seventy 271

The Scroll of Chanówkh

minus fifty-eight is twelve, symbolizing the last pastors that remain, foolish pastors of the dry tree.

8 (6) Then look! some small lambs29 were born of those white sheep and they managed to open their eyes and see, and they bleated to the (blind) sheep.

9 (7) and they cried to them, but these did not hear what they said because they were extremely deaf and too blind and worse each time.

10 (8) I saw in the vision how the ravens flew down upon those lambs and 11 that they seized one of them and tore the sheep in pieces and devoured them.

12 (9) I observed until the horns [Protestant countries] sprouted from those lambs and the ravens made their horns fall.

Protestant reformers, still helpless without His name, starting to see the reality of adulterous Yisrâ’Ë´l.

29

272

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

13 and I looked until there a great horn [Kingdom of Yâ-hwéh] sprouted out on an ibex among these sheep, and their eyes were opened.

14 (10) She looked at them and cried out to the sheep 15 Then the ibexes(65) saw her, all of who ran to her side.

(65) Dabela. Related to Strong’s #3104, Spanish translation which has DSS has here “rams”. The ibex symbolizes the believers in the rebuilding Virgin of Yisrâ’Ë´l. The ibex are wild goats, which have enormous, back-curving horns, measuring 28-55 inches in males. They are found in craggy terrain between the timber and snow lines of the Alps. They are remarkably surefooted and agile, leaping about rocky ledges and evade less agile predators. They 273

The Scroll of Chanówkh

have low reproductive rates. They were hunted severely, for their attractive horns, but are now protected.

16 (11) In spite of this, all the eagles, vultures, ravens, and kites kept snatching away the sheep, flying down upon them, and devoured them. Still the (blind) sheep remained in silence, but the ibexes cried out and lamented.

17 (12) Then these ravens contended, and struggled with her [the ibexes – the Virgin of Yisrâ’Ë´l] 18 and wished to break off His horn among them; but they did not prevail over Him. 19 (13) I saw until the pastors, the eagles, the vultures, and the kites came 20 and cried out to the ravens to break the horn of that ibex and they contended and struggled against Him, and he fought 274

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

against them and cried out that help might come to him. ’ËliyYâ´huw returns before the Great and Terrible Day of Yâ-hwéh 21 (14) Then I perceived that man who had written down the names of the pastors and who had taken it and presented it before the Sovereign of the sheep arrive 22 to help that ibex, aided him, rescued him, and showed him everything.

6th seal/Day of Yâ-hwéh events 23 (15) And I saw the Sovereign of the sheep come to his side, infuriated; all those who saw Him fled away [the dabela (ibexes)] and took cover before His presence; [1 Këph 4: 17, YchezqË´’l 9: 5-7] (16) while all the eagles, vultures, ravens, and kites 275

The Scroll of Chanówkh

assembled and brought with them all the sheep of the field, 24 they had all united and pledged themselves(66) to break this horn of the ibex in pieces. [Psalms 2] (66) This alliance of the foolish pastors, their multi-species ecumenical union, and the blind sheep uniting and making a pledge to break the horn of Yâ-hwéh’s Kingdom represents the clearest explanation of why the mark of the beast will be done. Is it any wonder such a grave punishment is promised for them?

25 (17) Then I saw the man [’ËliyYâ´huw] who had written the scroll by the command of Yâ-hwéh, open the scroll concerning the destruction that the last twelve pastors had committed, and disclose before the Yâ276

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

hwéh that they had destroyed much more than their predecessors. [1/4 of the earth during the Great Persecution 4th seal] 26 (18) I saw when the Sovereign of the sheep came(67) to them, took in His hand the rod of His wrath, struck the earth and the earth was rent asunder and all the beasts and the birds of the skies fell far away from these sheep and they were gulped down by the earth, which closed over them.

(67) 6th seal Second coming – This is the Judgment of the House of the Power: name-denying Christians are denied (Yshá`Yâhuw 5: 13-14). They receive the reward of the contradiction of Qórach, claiming to be leaders of the righteous elect (Numbers 16: 1-40). Note: marked blind 277

The Scroll of Chanówkh

sheep not included, nor the leaders, the heads of the enemy.

27 (19) I observed the moment in which a large sword was delivered to the sheep and they went forth against all the beasts of the field to slay them [Psalms 149: 6-9] 28 and all the beasts and the birds fled away from their presence.

29 (20) And I saw when a throne was erected on the pleasant land, [7th Trumpet – Judgment of the Dead (Disclosure 11: 18)] 30 The Sovereign of the sheep sat upon it, and the other one took the sealed scrolls 31 and opened them before the Sovereign of the sheep.

32 (21) Then Yâ-hwéh called those white men, the seven foremost ones [Miykhâ’Ë´l, Gavriy’Ë´l, Rphâ’Ë´l, Tsuwriy’Ë´l, Nóach, Moshéh, and ’ËliyYâ´huw], and commanded 278

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

that they bring before Him, commencing by the first star that led them, all the stars whose sexual members resembled that of the horses, and they brought them all before Him. 33 (22) Then, He spoke to the man who wrote before Him [’ËliyYâ´huw (88: 97)], who was one of the seven white men, and told him: “Take those seventy pastors to whom I entrusted the sheep and who after having received them slaughtered many more of them than the ones they were ordered to.”

(23) Look! I saw them all bound, and all bowed down before Him. (24) The trial first fell to the stars and they were judged, found guilty, and dispatched to the place of condemnation: [1 Qorinthíym 6:2-3, Disclosure 6: 13] They were cast into an abyss full of fire, flames, and pillars of fire.

279

The Scroll of Chanówkh

[Chapter 18: 12-16, Chapter 21] (25) Then the seventy pastors were judged, found guilty, and cast into the burning abyss.

34 (26) I saw in that moment a crevasse that was opening in the midst of the earth, which was full of fire.

35 They brought those blind sheep [marked of the beast (v.25)] unto there and all were judged and found guilty and cast into that abyss, in such an abyss of fire, and they burned 36 in that crevasse that was on the right [south] of that house.

37 (27) And I saw the sheep burning and their bones also burned.

38 (28) I stood up to see how He disassembled that ancient house [Bë´yth-’Ël = Apostate Yisrâ’Ë´l (Christianity) 1 Këph 4: 17], He removed all of its pillars, rafters, and decorations of the house which were 280

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

taken out simultaneously, and they brought them and deposited them in a place to the south of the Land. [Exile outside the Kingdom] 39 (29) I saw when the Sovereign of the sheep brought a new house, greater and higher than the first, and He put it in the place of the first, which had been disassembled. And all its columns were new and its decorations were new and greater than the ones of the first, the old house, which had removed out all the sheep that were inside it.

40 (30) I saw all the sheep which remained [144,000 remnant] be in the middle of it, the beasts of the earth, and all the birds of the sky bowing to render reverence to these sheep, petitioning them, and obeying them in everything. [Great Multitude] 281

The Scroll of Chanówkh

41 (31) Then those three who were clothed in white, and those who had elevated me before, took me by the hand and also the ibex took my hand and placed me in the midst of these sheep [144,000], before the judgment took place. [Chanówkh returns before Yâ-hwéh’s judgment commences (7th seal)] 42 (32) These sheep were all white, and their wool abundant and pure. (33) Then all who had been destroyed or dispersed by the beasts of the field and the birds of the sky were congregated into that house [regrafted in – first resurrection] and the Sovereign of the sheep rejoiced with great joy because all were good and because they had returned to His house.

43 (34) And I saw that they laid aside that sword that had been given to the sheep: 282

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

they brought it to the house and sealed it up in the presence of Yâ-hwéh.

44 And all the sheep were invited to that house though they did not fit. (35) Their eyes were opened and they gazed at the good One nor was there any among them who did not see Him. 45 (36) I saw that the house was large, wide, and was completely full. (37) I saw that a white Bull had been born and His horns were great and all the beasts of the field and all the birds of the sky feared Him and supplicated Him at all times.

324

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

5 Because of this they fear, because all their great possessions are embarked with them on the ocean so they get bad forebodings: that the sea will swallow them up, and they will perish there.

6 Is not the whole sea, all its waters, and all its movements the work of the Most High?

Hasn’t He put His seal upon all its actions and hasn’t He bound it to the sand?

7 At His reprimand it trembles, it dries up and all of its fish die, likewise as all that it contains, yet ye sinners who are upon the earth do not fear Him. (8) Isn’t it He Who made the heavens and earth, and all the things that they contain?

8 And Who has granted the erudition and the wisdom to all those who move upon the earth and on the sea?

325

The Scroll of Chanówkh

9 Aren’t the commanders of ships terrified at the ocean? And shouldn’t sinners be terrified at the Most High?

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

3 (2) All the luminaries are seized with great fear and the entire earth is terrified, it shall trembles and it shall be alarmed!

4 (3) All the envoys shall execute their orders and shall seek to conceal themselves from the presence of the Great Honor; the sons of the earth shall tremble and shake, 5 But you sinners shall be accursed for the age and you shall have no shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation).

[Yshá`Yâhuw 48: 22, 57: 20-21] 6 (4) Fear not, souls of the righteous, have hope you who have died in righteousness.

(5) Do not grieve if your souls have descended in pain to Sh’ówl, or if during your lifetime your bodies’ things have not gone for you in accordance to your goodness. Instead, await the day of judgment of the sinners, the day of the condemnation and the punishment.

327

The Scroll of Chanówkh

7 (6) And when you die, the sinners say about you: ‘The righteous die just as we die!

What profit do they have in their works?

Look! Like us, they expire in sorrow and in darkness. What do they get more than us?

From then on we are the same! (8) What will they take with them and what shall they see in the eternity? For look, they are dead, and from now on they will never again see the light!’ (9) I say unto you: ‘You sinners have been satisfied eating and drinking, robbing, sinning, plundering men, acquiring riches and living happy days. (10) You have not seen the end of the righteous, how their end is in shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation), for even to the day of their death no violence has been found in them. (11) Although they perish, and it is as if they had not existed, 328

and their souls have descended in affliction to Sh’ówl, [continues in Ch. 103] Back to top Chapter 103 1 yet now I swear to you righteous, by the greatness of the Honor of the Great One,

by His illustrious kingdom and by His majesty: (2) I comprehend the secret, I have read it in the tablets of heaven, I have seen the scroll of the pure Ones, and have found written and registered in them concerning you: Tablet of Heaven: Destinations of the righteous and the sinners 2 (3) I have seen that every wellbeing, happiness, and honor have been prepared 329

The Scroll of Chanówkh

for you, and been written down for the spirits of them who die in righteousness, numerous good things shall be given to you in payment for your labors; and your portion shall be better than that of the living.

3 (4) The souls of you who have died in righteousness shall be raised and shall live and your spirits and your remembrance shall not perish before the face of the Yâhwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) for all the generations of the world and from there on ye shall not fear the affront.

4 (5) Woe to you who have died sinners! If you die in the richness of your sins, those who are like you say, “Blessed are these sinners who have seen all their days, (6) and now have died in the pleasure and in wealth and have not seen during their life persecution nor murder, 330

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

they have died in honor and during life, no judgment has been pronounced against them.”

5 (7) Don’t ye know that when He shall make your souls descend to Sh’ówl, there your evil deeds shall shame you? And your suffering shall be great (8) there in the darkness, the chains and the burning fire, when the great punishment shall be executed. [Judgment of the dead – 7th Trumpet] 6 Woe to you, because you shall not have shâlówm (peace, completeness, reconciliation)! (9) To the righteous, and the good who were alive: Do not say on reflecting, “During our life we have worked laboriously and experienced much suffering, we have seen many evils, 7 we have been consumed, diminished, and our spirit has been cast down.

331

The Scroll of Chanówkh

8 (10) We have been destroyed and we haven’t found anyone that would help us not even with a word, we have been tortured 9 and have not expected to see life the next day.

10 (11) We hoped indeed to have been the head, 11 But we are the tail. We have suffered working, but we have not enjoyed the fruit of our labor; they have been devoured by sinners and the wicked who have unloaded their yoke upon us.

12 Those who detest and who assault us have exercised dominion over us; and before those who hate us have we bowed our heads yet they have shown no compassion towards us.

13 We have been tried escaping from them, in order to escape and be at rest, 332

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

but we have found neither where to flee nor how to escape from them. (14) We have complained before our governors for their persecution and we have cried out against those who were devouring us; but our cries have not been heard nor would they listen to our voice, 14 (15) because the governors help those who plunder and devour us, those who diminish our number, and cover up their oppression; they do not remove the yoke from us of those who devour, evict, and slay us; they conceal our slaughter, nor it is not remembered that they have raised their hand against Him.” Back to top Chapter 104 333

The Scroll of Chanówkh

1 I swear to you, righteous, that in heaven the envoys do record your goodness before the Honor of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones).

2 Have hope, though first ye have been afflicted with the calamity and suffering, now shall you shine like the luminaries of the heavens. You shall appear and you shall shine, and the gates of the Kingdom shall open itself before you. (3) With your cry, cry for justice and it shall manifest for you, because all of your tribulation shall be visited on the governors and on all who have assisted those who spoil you.

3 (4) Have hope and do not renounce your hope [“Yâhuwshúa`” – `Ivríym 10: 23, 26], because you shall enjoy a great joy, like that of the envoys in the heavens. (5) However you might conduct yourself, you shall not have to hide on the Day of the 334

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

Great Judgment, you shall not be taken for sinners [1 Qorinthíym 3: 11-15]; the eternal judgment shall fall far from you for all the generations of the world.

4 (6) So now do not fear, oh righteous, when you see the sinners grow in strength and prosperity in their ways, 5 and do not associate with them; but keep yourselves at a distance from their violence, because ye shall be associates with the host of the heavens. [2 Qorinthíym 6: 14] (7) Though you sinners say, “None of our sins shall be taken account of, or be recorded.”

Nevertheless your sins are recorded daily.

6 (8) And be assured by me, that light and darkness, day and night, look at all your transgressions. (9) Be not irreverent in your hearts: do not lie and do not alter the Word of the Truth, and do not accuse as 335

The Scroll of Chanówkh

being false the Word of the Pure One and the Greatness. Do not regard your worshipped images because all your lies and irreverence shall not be imputed for righteousness, but as a great sin.

Sinners will alter the Word and create the Lie, the Creature (Romans 1: 21-25) 7 (10) Now, I know this secret: the sinners shall alter and adulterate into many forms the Word of Truth (Yâhuwshúa`) 8 and they shall proffer wicked words; they shall lie and create a great Creature(79) and they shall write scrolls upon their own words!

Scripture restoration predicted (11) Nevertheless if they shall write My Word correctly in their own languages 336

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

(79) Literally, “create a great creature”, but the Spanish translation has “invent great Lies”. Both are true, but this way better reflects Romans 1: 21-25 speaking of the false names (words of men – 1 Thessaloníkeans 2: 13) and the anointed falsifier [antichrist].

9 and if they do not alter nor abbreviate My Words, rather that they write them all correctly, I shall testify all that first in their favor.

10 (12) Another secret also I know: the scriptures shall be granted to the righteous and the wise in order to communicate joy, integrity, and great wisdom. (13) The scriptures shall be given to them, they shall believe, 11 and they shall rejoice in them; And all the righteous shall become happy at 337

learning from them all the Ways of righteousness.(80) (80) The restoration of Scripture to include His Words, Yâ-hwéh, Yâhuwshúa`, and His titles.

Back to top Chapter 104A (105) 1 In those days Yâ-hwéh designated them from among the sons of the earth in order to read them and to give them testimony concerning His wisdom, saying to them: “Teach them it, because ye shall be their guides and ye shall receive the rewards; 2 Among all of the sons of the earth ye shall have the whole reward, (2) for I and My Son will forever hold communion 338

Rejoice, sons of integrity, in the Truth! ’Âmë´n” Back to top Chapter 105 (106-108) Birth of Nóach (1056 [2917 BC]) 1 After a time I took, Chanówkh, a wife for Mthuwshâ´lach my son and she gave birth to a son to whom he gave the name Lémekh33, saying, “Truly Righteousness has been humiliated until this day.”

This explanation of the name Lémekh shows that the Le means “for” and that the mekh relates to Strong’s #04134 or 04355.

The Scroll of Chanówkh

When he reached maturity Mthuwshâ´lach took for him a woman, 2 and she became pregnant by him, and brought forth to him a son. (2) When the infant was born, his flesh was whiter than the snow, redder than the rose; his hair was white like the pure wool is, thick and brilliant. When he opened his eyes it illuminated the entire house like the luminary orb and the whole house was radiant.

3 And then the infant got up from the hands of the midwife, opened his mouth and spoke to Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of righteousness. (4) Fear overcame Lémekh his father and he fled away and came all the way to his own father Mthuwshâ´lach, (5) and said: “I have put in the world a different son, he is not like the sons of ’Âthâ´m, rather he 340

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

resembles a son of the envoys of the heavens, he is not like us: 4 His eyes are like rays of the luminary orb and his face is radiant, (6) It seems to me that he was not procreated by me, rather by the envoys, 5 and I fear that something miraculous should take place in his days!

6 (7) So now, my father, I supplicate you and I implore you to go to our father Chanówkh, and learn the truth from him, since his residence is with the envoys” [Pardë´ç].

7 (8) So when Mthuwshâ´lach had heard the words of his son, he came to me at the borders of the earth; because he had been informed that I was there, and he cried out 8 and I heard his voice, and I went to him and I said to him: 341

The Scroll of Chanówkh

“I am here my son, why have you come towards me?”

9 He answered and said: “I have come to you on account of a great concern and on account of a [difficult] sight to which I have approached.

10 So now, my father, hear me: a son has been born to my son Lémekh, who does not resemble him, his nature is not like the nature of man, his color is whiter than snow and redder than the rose, the hairs of his head are whiter than white wool, his eyes are like the rays of the luminary orb and when he opened them they illuminated the whole house.

11 He has gotten up from the hands of the midwife; he has opened his mouth and has blessed Yâ-hwéh, the Sovereign of the heavens.

342

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

12 His father Lémekh has been seized with fear, and has fled towards me, he does not believe that the infant belongs to him, rather of the envoys of heaven, so look! Here I have come to you, so that you might let me know the truth.”

13 Then I Chanówkh, answered him saying: “’Âmë´n (Indeed) Yâ-hwéh shall restore His Law upon the earth, as I have seen and I told you, my son (Chapter 7: 7 note), because in the days of Yéred my father, those who were from heaven disregarded the Word of Yâ-hwéh. (14) Look! They committed sin, disregarded the law of Yâ-hwéh, altered it to go with women and to sin with them, married some of them, who gave birth to creatures not similar to the spirits, rather carnal ones.

343

The Scroll of Chanówkh

14 (15) Because of this there shall be great wrath and a great destruction shall take place during one year: a deluge upon all of the earth.

15 (16) But this child that to you [plural] has been born and his three sons shall be delivered on the earth when all the sons of ’Âthâ´m who exist upon the earth shall die.

16 (17) Then the earth shall rest and it shall be purified from the great corruption.

(18) Now therefore inform your son Lémekh, ‘he is your son in truth and without deception; this infant that has been born is yours’.

Let him call his name Nóach, because He [Yâ-hwéh] shall be a rest for you when ye rest in Him and He shall be your salvation [Yâhuw-shúa`], because he and his sons shall be saved from the corruption of the 344

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

earth, caused by all the sinners and by the irreverent ones of the earth, that there shall be in his days. (19) Afterwards there shall be greater unrighteousness take place than this, which shall be consummated in his days on the earth, for I know the secrets of Yâ-hwéh, that He himself has revealed and explained to me, and which I have read in the tablets of heaven.

17 (107: 1) I saw it written in them that generation after generation shall work iniquity in this way, and there shall be evil until a righteous generation shall arise, and until irreverence and the Wickedness disappears from off the earth and until the goodness comes to the earth upon them.

18 (107: 2) And now, my son, go tell your son Lémekh, and tell him 19 that this infant is, in truth and without deception, his son.”

345

The Scroll of Chanówkh

20 (107: 3) And when Mthuwshâ´lach had heard the word of his father Chanówkh, who had revealed to him every secret thing, he returned and let him know, and gave this infant the name of Nóach, since He was to console the earth from all the destruction.

21 (108: 1) Another scroll, which Chanówkh wrote for his son Mthuwshâ´lach and for those who shall come after him and keep the law34 in the latter days: (2) You who have labored well, wait these days until the end be consummated for evildoers, and until the power of the sinners be consumed. (3) Wait because certainly sin shall pass away and the name of the sinners shall be blotted out of the scroll of life and the scroll of the pure; and their seed shall be destroyed forever, English translation: “preserve their purity of conduct”. The Torah was nonexistent before Moshéh, and this may be a scribal revision, or if it is accurate, it would refer to the fact that only those of us who are justified by faith are capable of keeping the Law. Another possibility is that it refers to the eternal Law of life and not that of Moshéh.

346

their spirits shall be dead. They shall lament in a chaotic desolation, and they shall burn in the fire because there shall be no earth there.(81) (4) I observed there a cloud that could not be discerned well, because from the depth of it I was not able to see through it. I saw also a flame of fire blazing brightly, and something like glittering mountains that whirled around, and agitated from side to side.

(81) In the bottomless fire shall they burn. Literally and consistent with the Spanish translation, “in the fire shall they burn, where there is no earth” (Laurence, p. 178). [Lake of Fire is in space35] In the direction of the constellation of Orion, a “star”, or fireball, is reported to be heading towards earth. This is viewed from a long shaft built into the Great Pyramid, and is calculated to reach us around “AD 3000”. Could this be the Lake of Fire? Could this be the Fire which comes which will consume the elements of the old earth? Scientifically, as all things consist by His Power, and His Consuming Fire is obviously nuclear, the Lake of Fire is a place in the total absence of His Orderly Goodness, thus the chaotic desolation, and a perpetual nuclear explosion wherein these twice dead immortal spirits suffer for eternity.

The Scroll of Chanówkh

22 (5) Then I inquired of one of the envoys of the Pure One who was with me, and said to him: “What is this brilliant object? For it is not heaven, but only a brilliant flame that blazes and a clamor of screams, wailing, lamentations and great suffering!”

23 (6) He said to me: “Into this place that you see there are cast the souls of the sinners, of the irreverent, of those who work evil and of all those who alter what Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) has spoken through the mouth of the predicators about all that shall be [Lying scribes]. (7) Because some of these things are written in scrolls and others inscribed in the heights of the heavens so that the envoys and the pure ones might read them and know what shall happen both to the 348

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

sinners, or to the humble spirits, to those who have suffered in their bodies and shall be repaid by Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones), and to those who have been slandered by the wicked men; (8) who have loved [preferred] Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) and who have not loved [preferred] gold nor silver nor any of the riches of this world, yet whose bodies have been tortured; 24 (9) to those who from the period of their birth have not been covetous of earthly riches, but have regarded them as a passing breeze, 25 and whose conduct has been consistent with this, so Yâ-hwéh has proven their souls and has found them pure in order that they might bless His name.”

(10) I have exposed in the scrolls all their blessings: and He shall reward them; for they 349

The Scroll of Chanówkh

have been found to love Yâ-hwéh more than the surface of this world. He says: ‘While they have been trodden down by the wicked, and heard their reviling and scorning and were slandered, they were blessing Me. (11) So now will I call the spirits of the good from the generation of the Light, and I will transform those who were born in darkness and who have not been received in their bodies honor or esteem or compensation as their persuasion has merited.

26 (12) I shall exhibit in a brilliant light those who have loved My pure name, and I will make each sit on a throne of honor, of honor peculiarly his own, (13) They shall shine for innumerable times, since the judgment of Yâ-hwéh ’Elohíym (the mighty Ones) is righteous 350

‫ֵּספֶר חֲנוֹך‬

27 and He shall replete the persuasion of the loyal in the dwellings of the Way of Truth; (14) They shall see those who have lived in the darkness cast into the darkness, while the righteous shall shine.

(15) The sinners shall scream loudly and shall see them shining at them, who truly shall exit the days and periods that are prescribed to them.”
