Chapter 38

Translated by W. R. Morfill; edited by R. H. Charles

Mathusal had Hope, and awaited his Father Enoch by his Bed, Day and Night

1 And the Lord said to those men who first took me: ‘Take Enoch with you to the earth, and wait for him till the appointed day.’. And at night they placed me upon my bed, and Mathusal, expecting my coming by day and by night, was a guard at my bed.. And he was terrified when he heard my coming, and I gave him directions that all my household should come, that I might tell them everything.
