Myriads
Of Angels
Enoch 70:10 And I
beheld angels innumerable, thousands of thousands, and myriads and myriads, who
surrounded that habitation.
Enoch
Sees The Ancient Of Days, He Is Changed
Enoch 70:12
With them was the
Ancient of days, whose head was white as wool, and pure, and his robe was
indescribable.13 Then I fell upon my face, while all my flesh was dissolved, and
my spirit became changed
Uriel
Speaks To Enoch
Enoch 79:1 In those
days Uriel answered and said to me, Behold, I have showed you all things, O
Enoch; 2 And all things have I revealed to you. You see the sun, the moon, and
those which conduct the stars of heaven, which cause all their operations,
seasons, and arrivals to return.
The
Angels Have Transgressed
Enoch 83:5
The angels of your
heavens have transgressed; and on mortal flesh shall your wrath remain, until
the day of the great judgment.
One Of
The Angels Binds The Stars
Enoch 87:5 And when I
looked in the vision, behold, one of those four angels, who came forth, hurled
from heaven, collected together, and took all the great stars, whose form partly
resembles that of horses; and binding them all hand and foot, cast them into the
cavities of the earth.
The
Angels Teach The Women Forbidden Things
Enoch 7:10 Then they
took wives, each choosing for himself; whom they began to approach, and with
whom they cohabited; teaching them sorcery, incantations, and the dividing of
roots and trees.
The
Angels Teach The Men Forbidden Things
Enoch 8:1
Moreover Azazyel
taught men to make swords, knives, shields, breastplates, the fabrication of
mirrors, and the workmanship of bracelets and ornaments, the use of paint, the
beautifying of the eyebrows, the use of stones of every valuable and select
kind, and all sorts of dyes, so that the world became altered. 2 Impiety
increased; fornication multiplied; and they transgressed and corrupted all their
ways. 3 Amazarak taught all the sorcerers, and dividers of roots:4 Armers taught
the solution of sorcery; 5 Barkayal taught the observers of the stars, 6 Akibeel
taught signs;7 Tamiel taught astronomy;8 And Asaradel taught the motion of the
moon, 9 And men, being destroyed, cried out; and their voice reached to heaven.
The
Path Of Angels
Enoch 18:7 I saw the
path of the angels.
The
Prison Of The Angels
Enoch 21:5 Where I
beheld the operation of a great fire blazing and glittering, in the midst of
which there was a division. Columns of fire struggled together to the end of the
abyss, and deep was their descent. But neither its measurement nor magnitude was
I able to discover; neither could I perceive its origin. Then I exclaimed, How
terrible is this place, and how difficult to explore! 6 Uriel, one of the holy
angels who was with me, answered and said: Enoch, why are you alarmed and amazed
at this terrific place, at the sight of this place of suffering? This, he said,
is the prison of the angels; and here they are kept for ever.
Fetters
Prepared For The Host Of Azazzel
Enoch 53:4
Then I inquired of
the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, saying, For whom are these fetters
and instruments prepared? 5 He replied, These are prepared for the host of
Azazeel, that they may be delivered over and adjudged to the lowest
condemnation; and that their angels may be overwhelmed with hurled stones, as
the Lord of spirits has commanded. 6 Michael and Gabriel, Raphael and Phanuel
shall be strengthened in that day, and shall then cast them into a furnace of
blazing fire, that the Lord of spirits may be avenged of them for their crimes;
because they became ministers of Satan, and seduced those who dwell upon earth.
The
Angels Control The Elements
Enoch 59:8 For when
the lightning lightens, the thunder sounds, and the spirit at a proper period
pauses, making an equal division between them; for the receptacle, upon which
their periods depend, is loose as sand. Each of them at a proper season is
restrained with a bridle; and turned by the power of the spirit, which thus
propels them according to the spacious extent of the earth. 9 The spirit
likewise of the sea is potent and strong; and as a strong power causes it to
ebb, so is it driven forwards, and scattered against the mountains of the earth.
The spirit of the frost has its angel; in the spirit of hail there is a good
angel; the spirit of snow ceases in its strength, and a solitary spirit is in
it, which ascends from it like vapour, and is called refrigeration. 10 The
spirit also of mist dwells with them in their receptacle; but it has a
receptacle to itself; for its progress is in splendour. 11 In light, and in
darkness, in winter and in summer. Its receptacle is bright, and an angel is in
it. 12 The spirit of dew has its abode in the extremities of heaven, in
connection with the receptacle of rain; and its progress is in winter and in
summer. The cloud produced by it, and the cloud of the mist, become united; one
gives to the other; and when the spirit of rain is in motion from its
receptacle, angels come, and opening its receptacle, bring it forth. 13 When
likewise it is sprinkled over all the earth, it forms an union with every kind
of water on the ground; for the waters remain on the ground, because they afford
nourishment to the earth from the Most High, who is in heaven. 14 Upon this
account therefore there is a regulation in the quantity of rain, which the
angels receive.
The
Angels Are Given Long Cords
Enoch 60:1
In those days I
beheld long ropes given to those angels; who took to their wings, and fled,
advancing towards the north. 2 And I inquired of the angel, saying, Wherefore
have they taken those long ropes, and gone forth? He said, They are gone forth
to measure. 3 The angel, who proceeded with me, said, These are the measures of
the righteous; and cords shall the righteous bring, that they may trust in the
name of the Lord of spirits for ever and ever.
The
Secrets Of The Angels
Enoch 64:6 A
commandment has gone forth from the Lord against those who dwell on the earth,
that they may be destroyed; for they know every secret of the angels, every
oppressive and secret power of the devils, and every power of those who commit
sorcery, as well as of those who make molten images in the whole earth. 7 They
know how silver is produced from the dust of the earth, and how on the earth the
metallic drop exists; for lead and tin are not produced from earth, as the
primary fountain of their production.
The
Forbidden Acts Of The Angels
Enoch 68:5
The name of the
second is Kesabel, who pointed out evil counsel to the sons of the holy angels,
and induced them to corrupt their bodies by generating mankind. 6 The name of
the third is Gadrel: he discovered every stroke of death to the children of men.
7 He seduced Eve; and discovered to the children of men the instruments of
death, the coat of mail, the shield, and the sword for slaughter; every
instrument of death to the children of men. 9 The name of the fourth is Penemue:
he discovered to the children of men bitterness and sweetness; 17 The name of
the fifth is Kasyade: he discovered to the children of men every wicked stroke
of spirits and of demons: 18 The stroke of the embryo in the womb, to diminish
it; the stroke of the spirit by the bite of the serpent, and the stroke which is
given in the mid-day by the offspring of the serpent, the name of which is
Tabaet.
The
Angels Record The Sins Of The Sinners
Enoch 97:4
In those days you,
O righteous, shall have been deemed worthy of having your prayers rise up in
remembrance; and shall have deposited them in testimony before the angels, that
they might records the sins of the sinners in the presence of the Most High.
The
Angels Record Goodness Before God
Enoch 104:1 I swear to
you, righteous, that in heaven the angels record your goodness before the glory
of the Mighty One.
The
Companies Of Angels And Their Places
Trallians1:18
For even I myself,
although I am in bonds, yet am not therefore able to understand heavenly things:
19 Such as the places of the angels, and the several companies of them under
their respective princes, or of things visible and invisible, for of these I am
still learning. 20 For many things are lacking to us, so that we do not come
short of God.
The
Glorious Angels
Smyrnaeans 2:12
Let no man deceive
himself: both the things which are in heaven, and the glorious angels and
princes, whether visible or invisible, if they believe not in the blood of
Christ, they will be condemned.
