' Concerning the children of righteousness and concerning
the elect of the world,
And concerning the plant of uprightness, I will speak these
things.
Yea, I Enoch will declare (them) unto you, my sons :
According to that which appeared to me in the heavenly
vision.
And which I have known through the word of the holy
angels.
And have learnt from the heavenly tablets/
3. And Enoch began to recount from the books and said :
' I was born the seventh in the first week.
While judgement and righteousness still endured.
4. And after me there shall arise in the second week great
wickedness,
the Messianic kingdom is established
and lasts to the close of the tenth week.
The final judgement in 91" is held
at the close of the Messianic kingdom.
