Inside the Book of Enoch

Of the books left out of the Bible, the First Book of Enoch is among the most fascinating. Purporting to tell the story of Noah’s great-grandfather — the antediluvian patriarch that God took up into heaven — the text includes elaborate visions of the celestial realms and angelic hierarchies. In a past lecture, John Hamer of Toronto Centre Place looked at 1st Enoch’s context, including its acceptance within the canon of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. In this lecture, we dive deep into text, investigating its obscure and esoteric content. • Join the livestream to participate in the discussion and to ask questions to our lecturer during the Q A: • Other topics covered in this lecture include: • Second Temple Judaism • Canon, Apocrypha, and Pseudepigrapha • Why the Book of Enoch is not Canonical • Antediluvian Myth • Noah's Ark and the Deluge • Angels and angelology • Religious Visions • Esoteric Texts • Apocalyptic Literature • Browse our catalogue of free lectures at https://www.centreplace.ca/lectures • Your generous support allows us to offer these lectures at no cost.
