So some people saw that shitty movie "Noah," right?

What's in the bible today is there because the catholic church decided arbitrarily these are the testaments we're going to believe in. There's some they skipped.

That said, shitty movie about a bible story. who cares?

>who cares?
OP does. He's hoping it's less fictional than it looks.

The Book(s) of Enoch is only canonized by the Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox Church which means it's in their bible.

here the basic gestalt though:

The Book of Enoch was found by a Scottish explorer in the territory of modern Ethiopia which was written in the ancient geez language with parts written in Hebrew. It was translated in English shortly after it's discovery.

What's characteristic about this work is that it predicts the coming of 'The Son of Man' and 'The righteous One' in the Book of Parables (part of the Books of Enoch) . Early Christian leaders considered it to be a scripture and held the argument against the Jews because it predicted the coming of Jesus.

Some researcher dated some parts of the book to be written in 100 B.C. but later pulled back on this statements.

Many christian traditions such as Orthodox Christianity around the world accept some writings in the Book of Enoch. For example the Seven Archangels which are accepted by the Orthodox Church (In the Book of Enoch all of these seven archangels are given a detailed explanation of their function and appearance, but in the modern versions of the Bible both in Orthodox Christianity and Catholic the word 'archangel' is written only twice and that's when the archangel Michael appears or is spoken about him. All of the rest archangels are written as just 'angels' in the modern bibles). And this is only one of many examples where modern Christianity accepts the writings of the Book of Enoch. It really beats me as to why it's not canonized though (except in Ethiopia and Eritrea).

P.S. Enoch is the only man (besides Elijah) that went to heaven while still alive and this book is his description of the information he got while being there. (as to Elijah, there's not any kind of book named for example 'The Book of Elijah' where we can see what he experienced while he was there)

P.P.S. It's rumored that the Ethiopian Orthodox Church guards the Ark of the Covenant in the Holy Mother of Zion church.

Enoch is also great-grandfather of Noah. It would be only reasonable of Noah to safeguard the works of his great-grandfather and keep his book in the Ark, thus the book survives the flood.

The Book of Enoch is a Jewish translation of an older Sumerian Text.

There are Sumerian tablets that tell the exact same story of these Angels who mated with human females.

But in the Sumerian texts they are called the Igigi or the Watchers.

They were the Military of Enlil who is the same as the biblical Yahweh.

All the things that Enlil did in the Sumerian texts are the same things that Yahweh is said to of done.

The Fallen Angels were loyal to him till they rebelled and "Fell" They fell by disobeying his commands and mating with human females.

In the Sumerian version the leader of the Fallen is called Shamgaz,

In the Biblical version his name is slightly changed to: Samyaza. But the rest of the story is the same.

The book of Enoch and the Sumerian Tablets also tell the same story about the birth of Noah.

They both say that his mother Batenosh got pregnant when her Husband Lamech was away.

The Sumerian texts gives us many details and says that it was Enki who actually is the father of Noah.

>Enki

The god? So Noah is a demigod?

This is the source of all the Aryan Master Race stuff.

Noah was later given longevity by Enki as a reward.

Noah was also called Ziusudra, Atrahasis, Hasisadra, or Utnapishtim

Ziusudra = (“found long life” or “life of long days”).

Utnapishtim is the name of the King that Gilgamesh learned about Immortality of the gods from.

In the Epic of Gilgamesh we have the story of a Hero who said he was 3/4 divine meaning he was descendant from these 'gods' and only partly human therefore he should also have the same Long Life that they had.

So Gilgamesh went off in search of that Immortality.

I liked it too, but it's okay to like shitty movies sometimes knowing full well that they suck.
