  • 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 Noah
  • Enoch (son of Cain)
  • Hanoch (Enoch), son of Reuben
  • Hanoch (Enoch), one of the five sons of Midian
  • Enos (Bible), or Enosh, grandson of Adam and great grandfather of Enoch
  • The 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).
