# The Ethiopic Book of Enoch

Ephraim Isaac discusses the Ethiopic Book of Enoch, an exceptional text only entirely preserved in its entirety within the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible in Ge’ez. Emerging between the 4th century BCE and 1st century CE, the Book of Enoch features the apocalyptic worldview of the Patriarch Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. Renowned scholar and translator of this text, Professor Isaac will contextualize the Book of Enoch and its preservation by Ethiopian Jewish and Christian communities. This program is made possible through the generous support of the Lilly Endowment Inc.
