Description
Summary:That there is some sort of positive relationship between St Luke's Gospel and the last chapters of I Enoch has been observed before. But nobody seems to have investigated the matter more closely. It must, in my opinion, be very seriously considered whether this relationship is not of a direct literary character. The affinities concern the ‘peculiar material’ of Luke only. They become manifest to their full extent only by using the Greek text of the section of Enoch concerned.1 The Ethiopic text is in my estimation in several points corrupt and in its present state often obscures the original meaning.2
