Best Answer

The Similitude's of Enoch also called the Parables of Enoch, is part of the Book of Enoch which is in the Old Testament of the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible. The presentation of the Son of Man dominates the second of the three parables, but is also quite notable in the third parable. Stone offers this comment: "The title 'Son of Man' by which he is designated in some places has, naturally, aroused a good deal of interest, particularly among students of the New Testament. The transcendental characteristics of this figure, his pre-creation or pre-selection, his enthronement and his judging have served to sharpen this." Consider the following attributes the author gives to the transcendental figure: pre-existence, all dominion, the right to sit on the throne of his glory, and the right to execute judgment in the consummation of time. In the New Testament (particularly, the gospels and the book of Revelation) there is a striking similarity of thematic material. One passage more than any other that comes to mind is Matthew 25. Compare especially verse 31: "When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory" (NKJV).

Who was Enoch in Genesis?

Enoch was a man from the Old Testament, more specifically the book of Genesis, who is famous for being taken up into heaven without dying.Christian New Testament also has three references to Enoch (Luke 3:37, Hebrews 11: 5, Epistle of Jude 1:14-15).In the Bible, it is mentioned that:Enoch (ancestor of Noah), son of Jared, great-grandfather of NoahEnoch (son of Cain)Hanoch (Enoch), son of ReubenHanoch (Enoch), one of the five sons of MidianEnos (Bible), or Enosh, grandson of Adam and great grandfather of EnochThe Book of Enoch.Enoch (Arabic: إدريس‎ ʼIdrīs) appears in the Book of Genesis and a figure in the Generations of Adam.Enoch is the son of Jared (Gen 5:3-18), the father of Methuselah, and the great-grandfather of Noah. The text says; uniquely in the Generations; that Enoch "walked with God: and he was no more; for God took him", (Gen 5:22-29).


Was Enoch the son of Seth or of Cain?

Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) says that The line of ten generations from Adam to Noah begs to be compared to the seven generations from Cain to the sons of Lamech............................. AdamAdam................. SethCain .................. EnosEnoch ................ Cainan (Cain)Irad .................... Mahalaleel (Mehujael)Mehujael ........... Jared (Irad)Methusael ......... Enoch (Enoch)............................ Metheluselah (Methusael)............................ Lamech (Lamech)With the aid of the third column (in parentheses), we can see that the names in the second column are substantially the same as in the first column, with just a minor change of sequence. They originated with the same early mythology, but at some stage a new tradition emerged, which was subsequently brought back to enhance and add to the original tradition. Thus Enoch (Enos) is now both Seth's son and Cain's son.
