The Book of Enoch


                                      18)  PROPHECY OF THE ANIMALS



                  85.1 And after this I saw another dream, and I will show it all to you, my

                  son.


                  85.2 And Enoch raised his voice and said to his son Methuselah:  “To you I
                  speak, my son.  Hear my words, and incline your ear to the dream vision of


                  your father.
                  85.3 Before I took your mother, Edna, I saw a vision on my bed: - and


                  behold - a bull came out of the earth, and that bull was white.
                  And, after it, a heifer came out, and with the heifer came two bullocks, and


                  one of them was black and the other red.

                  85.4 And that black bullock struck the red one, and pursued it over the

                  earth, and from then on I could not see that red bullock.

                  85.5 But that black bullock grew, and a heifer went with it; and I saw that

                  many bulls came out from it, which were like it, and followed behind it.

                  85.6 And that cow, that first one, came from the presence of that first bull,

                  seeking that red bullock, but did not find it.  And then it moaned bitterly

                  and continued to seek it.

                  85.7 And I looked until that first bull came to it, and calmed it, and from

                  that time it did not cry out.

                  85.8 And after this, she bore another white bull, and after this she bore

                  many black bulls and cows.

                  85.9 And I saw, in my sleep, that white bull, how it likewise grew and

                  became a large white bull.  And from it came many white bulls, and they

                  were like it.

                  85.10 And they began to beget many white bulls that were like them - one

                  following another.

                  86.1 And again, I looked with my eyes as I was sleeping, and I saw Heaven

                  above, and behold, a star fell from Heaven, and it arose and ate and




                                                                                                    120
