Book of Enoch

Enoch, the missing books

Suits my purpose
But …
I would prefer it to be read by one person and without the dramatic vocal intonation, background music and sound effects.
I’m not implying that it should be read in a monotone, but without all the ‘acting’

Love this
Stuff I don’t know 🤷🏾♀️
Great Book to Read
Never mind.
Ideological Injection Disguised as Ancient Wisdom
The original concepts were about individual wickedness (chamas, rasha) and divine righteousness (tzedek, mishpat) - not systemic oppression and equity frameworks. By injecting contemporary social justice terminology into ancient apocalyptic literature, the translator is making readers think their modern ideological assumptions are validated by 2000-year-old texts.
This is sophisticated manipulation: using the authority of ‘scripture’ to bypass critical thinking while reshaping how people conceptualize justice, morality, and divine order. The tracking/data collection adds another layer - your engagement with ideologically-shaped ‘ancient wisdom’ becomes monetizable behavioral data.
If you want actual Enoch scholarship, read R.H. Charles (1906) or Nickelsburg & VanderKam translations with critical apparatus. This app is theological propaganda with a scripture wrapper.
