Abstract

English translation of the First Book of Enoch, based on 1 Enoch: A Commentary (2001 Nickelsburg), book.

"Created in conjunction with an exhaustive critical commentary, this is the only English translation of 1 Enoch that takes into consideration all of the textual data now available in the Ethiopic version, the Greek texts, and the Dead Sea Aramaic fragments. Since only the first of two Hermeneia commentary volumes is now available, this book provides an indispensable translation of the whole work."--Publisher description.
