Introduction xcix
New Testament 1 Enoch
1^ 'The sea gave up the dead 5P '
ia those days shall the earth
which were in it, and death also give back that which has
and Hades gave up the dead been entrusted to it, and Sheol
which were in them '-
also shall give back that which
it has received, and hell shall
give back that which it owes '.
Cf. 61«.
2011-16. The last judgement is held after the temporary Messianic kingdom
(20^> "), just as in 1 En. 91-104. There is, however, no resurrection in the
temporary Messianic kingdom of 1 Enoch as there is in Revelation.
1' ' Cast into the lake of fire '. 90^° ' Cast into this fiery abyss '.
•21'''*. We have here a new heaven and a new earth, and a new Jerusalem
coming down from heaven : yet in 22i*i i" all classes of sinners are iaid to
be without the gates of the city. But if there were a, new earth this
would be impossible, Thi.s contradiction may have arisen from combining
the divergent Messianic conceptions which appear in 1 Enoch. Cf. ib*> ^ 90^'-
22" ' no more curse '
25"^ 'no sorrow or plague or
torment or calamity '.
(c) We shall next deal with the Epistles of St. Paul. This
Apostle, as we know, borrowed both phraseology and ideas from
many quarters: from the Greek poets; from the apocryphal
writings, as the Book of Wisdom ; from the lost Revelation of
Elias— 1 Cor. 2' according to Origen, and Eph. 5^* according to
Epiphanius. We shall find that he was well acquainted with
and used 1 Enoch.
Rom. 8^* 'Neither angels, nor 61^^" 'angels of power and .
principalities, nor powers '. angels of principalities '.
g** ' God blessed for ever '. 77^ ' He who is blessed for ever '.
1 Cor. 6^1 - Justified in the name 48' 'in his (i.e. the Messiah's)
of the Lord Jesus '. name they are saved *.
1 Cor. 111". TertuUian, C. Marc. v. 8 ; de Virg.Veland. 7, explains this
verse through a reference to the bad angels spoken of in 1 Enoch who
would be incited to wantonness by unveiled women.
2 Cor. 4" ' To give the light of 38* ' The Lord of Spirits has
the knowledge of the glory of caused His light to appear
God in the face of Jesus on the face of the holy, right-
Christ
'- ecus, and elect '.
