Abstract
This article examines the relationship between Enoch’s ontological state and the types of information that are revealed to him. Concentrating on two Enochic works, the Book of the Watchers and the Book of Dream Visions, this question is pursued both internally, that is within the works, and in a comparative fashion. Differences were discerned in the presentation of the seer in these two works.
期刊介绍:
The last twenty years have witnessed some remarkable achievements in the study of early Jewish literature. Given the ever-increasing number and availability of primary sources for these writings, specialists have been producing text-critical, historical, social scientific, and theological studies which, in turn, have fuelled a growing interest among scholars, students, religious leaders, and the wider public. The only English journal of its kind, Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha was founded in 1987 to provide a much-needed forum for scholars to discuss and review most recent developments in this burgeoning field in the academy.
