The Book of Enoch


                  the shaking of Heaven.

                  60.5 And the Holy Michael said to me:

                  “What sight has disturbed you like this?  Until today has the day of His

                  mercy lasted and He has been merciful and long suffering towards those


                  who dwell upon the dry ground.
                  60.6 And when the Day, and the Power, and the Punishment, and the


                  Judgment come that the Lord of Spirits has prepared for those who worship
                  the Righteous Judgment, and for those who deny the Righteous Judgment,


                  and for those who take His name in vain - and that Day has been prepared.
                  For the chosen a covenant, but for the sinners a visitation.”


                  60.7 And on that day two monsters will be separated from one another, a

                  female monster whose name is Leviathan, to dwell in the depths of the sea,

                  above the springs of the waters.

                  60.8 And the name of the male is Behemoth who occupies with his breast

                  an immense desert named Dendayn on the east of the Garden where the

                  chosen and the righteous dwell.  Where my great-grandfather was received,

                  who was seventh from Adam, the first man whom the Lord of Spirits made.

                  60.9 And I asked that other Angel to show me the power of those monsters,

                  how they were separated on one day, and thrown, one into the depths of the

                  sea and the other on to the dry ground of the desert.

                  60.10 And he said to me:  “Son of man, you here wish to know what is

                  secret.”

                  60.24 And the Angel of Peace who was with me, said to me:  “These two

                  monsters, prepared in accordance with the greatness of the Lord, will feed

                  them that Punishment of the Lord.  And children will be killed with their

                  mothers and sons with their fathers.

                  60.25 When the punishment of the Lord of Spirits rests upon them it will

                  remain resting so that the punishment of the Lord of Spirits may not come

                  in vain upon these.  Afterwards, the judgment will be according to His




                                                                                                     76
