Book of Enoch · The Son of Man and the Complete Parables Only Ethiopia Kept · 3 Hour Sleep Story

Thirty five chapters in the middle of the Book of Enoch that the Dead Sea caves did not have, that the Greek did not keep, and that exist on this earth in one language, Ge'ez, on the shelves of one church. Tonight, the Book of Parables, opened whole: a figure with a head of days and hair white like wool, and beside him one who looks like a man, chosen and hidden before the sun was made, the staff of the righteous and the hope of the troubled of heart. Four voices around a throne, and the fourth voice keeping the accusers out. Wisdom coming down to look for a house and going home to sit with the angels. Six mountains of metal that melt like wax so there is no iron for war. Two monsters parted on one day, one for the sea and one for the desert. The thunder waiting in its place of rest, the hail a good angel, the mist with a room of its own, and a measure for the rain. Angels flying north with cords to find the ones the sea took. The oath that holds the sea behind the sand. And the name given at the end to the man who watched it all, that later readers in another faith recognised, and have argued about since. Then the two dreams Enoch had as a boy, the sky falling, and the whole of history as a white bull and a flock of sheep among wild beasts, and the ten weeks of the world that end with weeks without number. A three hour sleep story, the sixth night of Season Six, The Lost Books, and the middle of the season.
