In this comprehensive survey of widespread ancient references to Enoch and to Enochian themes, James C. VanderKam illumines the range and character of ancient testimonies to the man, his teachings, and his work. VanderKam also explains why Enoch aroused such ardent admiration from some quarters and deep apprehension from others."--Publisher description.
