THE PARABLES OF ENOCH

Messianic Expectations at the Time of Jesus?

In this exciting class, guided by a biblical studies professor, explore the Book of Enoch (1 Enoch) from an Adventist perspective, particularly focusing on the Book of Parables, with special focus on how Ellen White utilized and evaluated the work. Explore the earliest origins of the idea of the Messiah and how Jews before the time of Jesus were attempting to make sense of a coming "son of man." Discover how the New Testament was shaped by and interacted with 1 Enoch and why some parts of it even directly quote from it.
