5.0 out of 5 stars A Very Important Work, September 13, 2010

By 

Scott Meade "The Author of Twisted Christians" (Earth and Other Realms) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Book of Enoch: Angels, Watchers and Nephilim. (Paperback)

Dr. Nyland's translation of 1 Enoch is brilliant and has come at the perfect time, as I am working on projects that require this information. I had no idea that this book would include the whole Book of Enoch with all-inclusive commentary and cross-references concerning the very same beings who I am researching. This book is a gem and should be included in the libraries of all demonologists, as well as anyone who is interested in knowing who the principalities are behind spiritual warfare. I recommend this book for all open-minded Christians who have not been brainwashed by the watered-down teachings of their churches. I truly wish that I would have read this book before writing my first novel, as it would have had a completely different storyline for the demon named Sancho.

I should also note the significance of the many other important prophetic messages that Dr. Nyland has translated into easily understood modern English. The last days are upon us and God has allowed for this new knowledge to be spread throughout the world. It was 1947 when the first of the controversial Dead Sea Scrolls were found within the Qumran caves. 1 Enoch was obviously at one time a part of the original canon, as Jude directly quoted from 1 Enoch chapter 1 in his prophetic message within the B'rit Hadashah (New Testament).

It is time for all believers to understand the importance of The Book of Enoch and I am very pleased to know that there are lexicographers such as Dr. Nyland in this world who are working toward bringing this knowledge to the people. May God bless her work and protect her from evil as she continues to do His will through her.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enoch is Enoch., September 6, 2010

By 

Aaron Riley - See all my reviews

This review is from: Book of Enoch: Angels, Watchers and Nephilim. (Paperback)

Dr Ann Nyland's new translation from the Greek version of the Book of Enoch (1 Enoch, or the Ethiopian Enoch) is refreshingly original, easy to read, and rich in informative notes. The Book of Enoch is usually known to Christians only through the short quotation in the Letter of Jude, but Dr Nyland here makes available the full panoply of places, events and creatures (including Watchers, Angels and Nephilim). Her prose renders this mythic cosmos vividly while retaining its strangeness and gives the reader clear insight into the demonology which underpins the New Testament. Highly recommended for believers and historians of religion alike.

This review is from: Book of Enoch: Angels, Watchers and Nephilim. (Paperback)

I highly recommend Dr. A. Nylands `Book of Enoch: Angels, Watchers and Nephilim. Her translation includes scripture cross references and translation clarifications and explanations, which are fascinating and quite insightful. The book is clear and easy to read. I found Enoch's stories, journeys, and explanations engrossing and enjoyable.
Dr. A. Nylands book caught my attention from the title. I'm an avid fan of "other worldly" stories from traditional mainstream fiction. Enoch's book combined with Nylands translation makes for a captivating and thought provoking read.
