Introduction

Abstract

Abstract This chapter provides an introductory survey of the study of extant Enochic literature like 1 Enoch, 2 Enoch, and other fragmentary remains associated with the name of Enoch found in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek, Latin, Syriac, Armenian, Coptic, and Arabic sources. It summarizes the previous work that has been expended on Enochic literature since its rediscovery by Western scholars in the sixteenth century. It calls attention to the abundance of evidence for understudied Enochic literary works which survives in early Jewish, Christian, Muslim, and non-biblical testimonies, articulates the need for assembling these remnants into a convenient collection for the progress of research, and describes the methodology that is employed for their arrangement in the present volume.
