Then he lifted up his feet, and went to the ends of the earth, to the dwelling of his great-grandfather Enoch.

And the Lord of spirits commanded the angels who went forth, not to take up the men and preserve _them_.

For those angels _presided_ over all the mighty waters. Then I went out from the presence of Enoch.

It was exalted in the chariots of the Spirit; and the name went forth in the midst of them.

He showed me all the hidden things of the extremities of heaven, all the receptacles of the stars, and the splendours of all, from whence they went forth before the face of the holy.

Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Phanuel, and the holy angels who were in the heavens above, went in and out of it. Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel went out of that habitation, and holy angels innumerable.

Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Phanuel, and the holy angels who were in the heavens above, went in and out of it. Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel went out of that habitation, and holy angels innumerable.

When I went out below, and looking up to heaven, beheld the sun proceeding from the east, the moon descending to the west, a few _scattered_ stars, and everything which God has known from the beginning, I blessed the Lord of judgment, and magnified him: because he hath sent forth the sun from the chambers of the east; that, ascending and rising in the face of heaven, it might spring up, and pursue the path which has been pointed out to it.

The first female young one also went out in the presence of the first cow; and sought the red heifer; but found him not.

Then one of those four went to the white cows, and taught them a mystery. While the cow was trembling, it was born, and became a man, and fabricated for himself a large ship. In this he dwelt, and three cows dwelt with him in that ship, which covered them.

Then the white cow, which became a man, went out of the ship, and the three cows with him.

Now the sheep began to cry out on account of their young, and fled for refuge to their Lord. One however, which was saved, escaped, and went away to the wild asses.

With all their might, until the Lord of the sheep descended at their voice from _his_ lofty habitation; went to them; and inspected them.

Then that sheep went to the wolves with the word of the Lord, when another met him, and proceeded with him.

I then looked at them, until they departed from the wolves. The eyes of the wolves were blind, who went out and followed them with all their might. But the Lord of the sheep proceeded with them, and conducted them.

The wolves however perceived not the sheep, but went into the midst of the lake, following them, and running after them into the lake of water.

Then that sheep who conducted them went away, and ascended the top of the rock;

Then that sheep, taking with him other sheep, went to those which had wandered.

And afterwards began to kill them. They were terrified at his countenance. Then he caused those which had wandered to return; who went back to their fold.

Again I saw that those sheep wandered, and went various ways, forsaking that their house;

And behold three of the sheep departed, arrived, went in; and began building all which was fallen down of that house.

I saw, too, that a large sword was given to the sheep, who went forth against all the beasts of the field to slay them.

And he spoke to the man who wrote in his presence, who was one of the seven white ones, saying, Take those seventy shepherds, to whom I delivered up the sheep, and _who_ receiving them killed more of them than I commanded. Behold, I saw them all bound, and all standing before him. First came on the trial of the stars, which, being judged, and found guilty, went to the place of punishment. They thrust them into _a place_, deep, and full of flaming fire, and full of pillars of fire. Then the seventy shepherds were judged, and being found guilty, were thrust into the flaming abyss.

Then Mathusala went, called to him all his brethren, and assembled his kindred.

I heard his voice, and went to him saying, Behold, I am _here_, my son; since thou art come to me.

THIS is the history of the division of the days of the law and of the testimony, of the events of the years, of their (year) weeks, of their Jubilees throughout all the years of the world, as the Lord spake to Moses on Mount Sinai when he went up to receive the tables of the law and of the commandment, according to the voice of God as he said unto him, 'Go up to the top of the Mount.'

I have written, that thou mayst teach them.' And Moses went up into the mount of God, and the

And the angel of the presence who went before the camp of Israel took the tables of the divisions of the years -from the time of the creation- of the law and of the testimony of the weeks of the jubilees, according to the individual years, according to all the number of the jubilees [according, to the individual years], from the day of the [new] creation when the heavens and the earth shall be renewed and all their creation according to the powers of the heaven, and according to all the creation of the earth, until the sanctuary of the Lord shall be made in Jerusalem on Mount Zion, and all the luminaries be renewed for healing and for peace and for blessing for all the elect of Israel, and that thus it may be from that day and unto all the days of the earth.

And on the second day He created the firmament in the midst of the waters, and the waters were divided on that day -half of them went up above and half of them went down below the firmament (that was) in the midst over the face of the whole earth. And this was the only work (God) created
