PREFACE.In the attempt here rnade to translate and explain theproper names of Angels, etc., occurring in the Bookof Enoch, it is necessary to observe, that without pre-suming to decide between the conflicting opinions ofeminent Orientalists and learned Critics,* in respect to

* Archbishop Laurence, the learned translator of the Book of Enochinto English from the Ethiopian MS. brought to this country by Bruce,favours (in his Dissertation on this work prefixed to his translation) theopinion of its having been originally written in Hebrew or Chaldee,which he supports by his quotations from Scaliger, and from a passagein the Cabbalistic book called the Zohar, in which direct referencesoccur to a Book of Enoch. After which he adds, These allusions ofthe Zohar to the repositories of the celestial and terrestial kingdoms,and to the tree of knowledge in the Garden of Eden shewn to Enochafter his ascent into heaven, are distinctly stated to have been takenfrom a book entitled the Book of Enoch, and the very same allusionswill be found immediately detailed between Chaps, xvi. and xxxvii.of the present version. The reference to the tree of knowledge in thegarden of Eden occurs in Chap. xxxi. Now the authors of the Ca-balistical remains wrote or conveyed down their recondite doctrines inChaldee. Scarcely therefore, I apprehend, will it be questioned thatthe copy of the Book of Enoch which they cited was written either inthat language or in Hebrew, for they appear to have regarded it as agenuine work of him whose name it bore, and not as the spurious pro-duction of a later age. Had they been solely acquainted with theGreek copy, which is very improbable, they never coidd have con-templated it as an original ; but they certainly seem to invest that towhich they referred with this high and distinguished character. Theconclusion is obvious.

The learned Sylvestre de Sacy* does perhaps too precipitately infer,* Dans l'Ethiopien la lettre aspiree qui devrait comraencer ce mot [Hermon]

est omise, ce qui prouve que ce livre a 6te traduit en Ethiopien d'apres un originalGiee, et non sur un teite Hehreu. (Note to Chap. vii. of his Latin translation.)

IV PREFACE.the original lan^ua^e in which this work has been com-posed, it is assumed as conceded by all who have anyknowledge of the Hebrew and Chaldee languages, that,at least, the names of the powerful Spirits, etc., havebeen written originally in one of the said languages.The internal evidence the work bears in this respect isindeed too strong to be resisted, or to leave room forany reasonable doubt. The inference we wish hence todeduce is, that the subjoined observations in respect toHebrew names in general, must be also applicable tothose contained in the Book of Enoch.We have then to remark, in the first place, thatalthough proper names in most languages are nevertranslated, and, indeed are, in most cases, not susceptibleof translation, yet the Hebrew names, or at least thegreater part of those occurring in the Holy Scriptures,are composed of words having a known and definitemeaning, which is either descriptive of the attributes and

on account of the omission of the aspirated letter in the word Hermon,that this proves that this book had been translated into Ethiopianfrom the Greek, and not from the Hebrew; particularly as he himselfobserves that mistakes in spelling abound in almost every linef of theEthiopian text. But this very word Arrnon or Hermon, proves that itmust have been written in Hebrew or Chaldee, as the context (Chap,vii, 8) plainly shews that it is derived from the root Din (Ha-ram),which both in Hebrew and Chaldee means, to devote to destruction, toanathematise, etc.; and, as the learned Archbishop Laurence has wellremarked on this passage, that on the supposition that the book waswritten in Hebrew or in either of the kindred languages, the passagewould be in itself sufficiently explicit, and the derivation of the wordapparent; but on the supposition that the book was written in Greek,it would be absolutely unintelligible without some further explanation,or at least some notice that the term was derived from a foreignidiom.

PREFACE.qualities of the individual, or, as is often the case, the nameconsistedof some pious wish or prayerby parentsor others,at the birth of an infant expressive of their hope that thecharacter, powers, and conduct of the child might agreewith the name thus given. Some names also were givenallusive to, and on account of, some remarkable eventwhich happened at the time of the infant's birth, eitherto the infant itself, to its parents, or on the occurrenceof some event of more general or national interest.Instances of all these abound throughout the Scriptures.It will, however, suffice to adduce a few instances of eachkind. The names of Adam and Eve, Noah, and De-borah* (Gen. ii. 7; iii. 19, 20; v. 29 ; xxxv. 8 ; andJudges iv.), may be adduced as instances of the first-mentioned kind. For examples of the second class, videGen. xviii. 12 ; xxv. 26; xxix. passim; Exodus ii. 10 ;Isa. vii. 14; ibid. viii. 1, 4; Hosea i. 4, 6, 8.where themotives are assigned for the names given to Isaac andJacob, for the names of the twelve patriarchs or sons ofJacob, and for those of Moses, Immanuel, Maher-shalal-hash-baz, Jezreel, Lo-hami, and Lo-Ruhama.

It remains to be observed, with respect to the namesoccurring in this Book of Enoch, that the difficulty ofexplaining them and tracing their derivations is con-siderably increased by the transformations they haveundergone in having been expressed with Ethiopian andGreek characters, and by having their orthography somuch altered, to suit the pronunciation of the variouslanguages in which the work has come to us : thatmany words can scarcely be recognised to have beenof Chaldee or Hebrew origin. In endeavouring torestore them to their primitive sounds and language, wedo not by any means intend to assert, that ours is the

Wehave, however, taken care diligently to compare thenames with the context in which they are mentioned,which in most cases corroborate the derivation andmeaning we have ventured to affix to them, and whichno doubt also strengthens the opinion of those who con-tend that this Book was originally written in Hebrew orChaldee.

PROPER NAMES, Etc.,OCCURRING IN

THE BOOK OF ENOCH.Ardis (Chap. vii. 7), rV nPt {Ar-dith), in Chaldee means a

tubular or pipe-formed eminence. It is possible thatthe summit of Armon was thus formed.

Armon (ibid. 8), from 0*111 (Heb. and Chald.), to devote to de-struction, to anathematise, which perfectly agrees withthe context : that mountain was therefore called Armon,because, etc. p* )Hl 17] Mount Hermon, in Palestine,appears to be the one here alluded to.

Akibeel (ibid. 9), 7X1 Ipy a reward in (or from) the Lord.Azkeel (ibid.), 7X3 TJ? (Az ka-et), i. e. strong or powerful, like

God, or one who has superhuman strength.Asael (ibid.), either from /X TWty (Asa-el), made by God, or

the manifestation of God's power ; or it may be derivedfrom 7^rt CJ? (As-ael), i. e. the blighting or destroying(angel) of the Lord.

Armers (ibid, and Chap. viii. 4), or, as M. de Sacy spells it,Armoris. Perhaps from the Chald. jlftHtf (A-remo?i),a mighty Lord; or possibly in an oprjrobrious sense,from HlX^n (Ha-ra-ma-ooth), the deceiver, or rather,the deception, which, perhaps might find countenance fromwhat is stated concerning Armers in chap. viii. 4, viz.that he taught sorcery ; but as *{$*TN (Ara-ma-ee), sig-nifies in Chald. a root, it is more likely that it must bededuced from the last mentioned word, as it is affirmedin the preceding verse that another spirit also taughtall the sorcerers and dividers of roots, which seems alsoto have been a species of sorcery.


8/20

8 PROPER NAMES, ETC., INAnane (ibid.), *}3P (A-na-ne), he lias favoured me, or the fa-

voured one. This name occurs in Jeremiah and in Ezra.M. de Sacy spells it Ananyou, which, if it be the rightreading, is probably iTOJn (Anan-ia, or Hanan-ia), i. c.the Lord has favored, or thefavoured of the Lord. Thisname occurs also in Daniel.

Arazyal (ibid), 7tfPl HX (Arez-aet), the cedar of God, thecedar being, as is well known, a symbol of beauty,strength, and permanency; or it may be derived from7^(1 Y^V (Aretz-el), the terrible orformidable of the Lord.Compare for this last definition Job vi. 23.

Azazyel (Chap.viii. 1), 7KH TT^ (Azaz-el), i.e. the strength ofthe Lord.

Amazarak (ibid. 3), pllttH (Am-za-rak). This, in Hebrew,signifies one who throws or casts solids, or pours outliquids, which name might have been given in referenceto some libation or other idolatrous and magical practice.If we derive it from the Chald. pl^? (Ma-za-rak), from1V2 (Ma-zar), to corrupt, with the prefixed denotingarticle H (a), it may mean one who gathers for corruption,which will also agree with the context. Vide also aboveunder Armers.

Azaradel (ibid. 8), probably /NT Ity (Azar-dael), the aid of(or from) the Lord ; or perhaps from /N1 lTX (Azar-dael), the girdle of G , which it is possible was appliedin respect to some astronomical allusion.

Arsayalalur (Chap. x. 2). This is probably a compound ofthe following words, *Y)K j>AVW2*ty(Arsa-yealal-or),theseat of him who praises or worships light ; or we may readTlfcO 77H N&JHy (Arsa-alel-ve-or), i.e. the seat of praiseand light, which may be applied to the good angelsent to instruct and explain to the son of Lamech(Enoch), vide ver. 1 to 5.

Alva (Chap. xxx. 1), this appears to be the aloe, called in He-brew M/0^ (A-ha-lah).

THE BOOK OF ENOCH. 9Adam (Chap, xxxvii. 1), Ad-dam, from nftlX (Adam-ma), or

earth from which the first man was taken, Gen. ii. 7, andiii.li).

species of tree, indigenous in Palestine and in warmclimates ; often mentioned in Scripture.

AzAZEEL (Chap. liii. 5), *?Ttfty. This word is mentioned in Lev.w i. S and 10, where the English version renders it, thescapegoat, according to its derivation of Tty (A-zaz), and7tf (El), i. e. strong and mighty. Commentators haveexplained it as referring to the high and steep eminencefrom which the goat was thrown down. It may, there-fore, also be understood here as referring to the strengthand power of the angels, Aza-zeel, i. e. the strong orpowerful (ox, of the Lord).

Arstikapha (Chap, lxviii. 2), from the Chaldec PinSiTlX (Ar-haphta), a prince, or rather one who is next in degree ofhonor to the reigning king.

Armen (ibid.), probably from U1T\ to devote to destruction, thedestroying angel.

Azazeel (ibid.), the strong one of the Lord. It is remarkablethat the same name is here given to the tenth and alsoto the twenty-second of the fallen angels.

Ananel (ibid.), from /K and |^ i. e. the cloud of the Lord, ormore probably from 7&G3n Hananel, or the Lord'sfavor.

Aryaris (Chap, lxxvii. 1), from IV^V *V)tf, or light and Yarith,to dart, or the darting, i. e. that which darteth light. Thisis an apt description of the rays of light darted as it wereby the sun. Its second name, Tomas, is probably flttinToomath, i. e. perfection, alluding to its splendid light,excelling in power and perfection any of the otherluminaries.

Asonta (ibid. 2). The four names here given to the moon seemto be indicative of the four phases or changes the moonundergoes or appears in every month to the inhabitants

10 PROPER NAMES, ETC, INof earth. Thus, Ason-ya, IT Y\T$ i.e. the strength of Yah,or of the Lord, may be taken as allusive to the full stateof the moon when it shines on the earth with its fullpower and strength. Pity p (Ben-asa), the son of thepowerful, may be indicative of the third quarter whenthe moon is in a secondary degree of power and recedesfrom its full strength. Ebla, from 7^T\ (Abel), vanity,or instability , or from 72K (Ay-bel), mourning, mayallude to the last quarter, when the moon constantlydecreases and finally disappears for some time; whilstErae, from HX* ) (ra-eh), to see, or to appear, may indicatethe first quarter of the month in which the moon firstappears.

Akae (Chap, lxviii. 22), perhaps from PIN3PI (Aka-d), or strik-ing, or a blow given by the hands of the holy Michael.

12 PROPER NAMES, ETC., INis of an idol, so called, perhaps, from the destroying andwithering influence ascribed to it.

Enoch (Chap.i. 1), *p3n (Ee-noch), from pH (Ha-nach), todedicate. There are two persons of that name, the firstwas the son of Cain, mentioned Gen. iv.

Eden, p$? (Eden), or delight.Erythraean Sea (Chap. xxxi. 2), is the ancient name of the

Arabian Gulph or Red Sea, called in Hebrew t|1D D*( YamSuph), or the Sea of Suph. This name was also extendedby the ancients to the whole expanse of water from thecoast of Ethiopia to the island of Taprobana (Ceylon).This appellation is no doubt derived from Edom or Esau,whose descendants were called Idumeans, and inhabitedthe northern parts of Arabia ; they navigated upon theRed Sea, the Persian Gulph, and also upon the IndianOcean. The name DIIK (Edom), signifies red, and,according to Pliny, the Erythraean Sea obtained this namefrom a king called Erythros, which in Greek signifies red.That this king Erythros, or red, is identical with Esauor Edom, i. e. the red, or ruddy, is highly probable.

Enos (Chap, xxxvii. 1), EH3K (E-nosh), man, or rather weakand frail man.

Hyacinth (lxx. 2), the name of a splendid gem, called WW~\r\{Tarshish) in Hebrew.Hanzar (Chap, lxxxviii.). This word is apparently neither ofHebrew nor Chaldce origin, or it is so much altered inspelling that its original form can scarcely be even con-jectured.

Iivisat (Chap. xx. 7). This is either a proper name, as sur-mised by Archbishop Laurence, or it may be explainedto mean, the angel who presides over Ikisat (i. e. hell, orthe place offuture punishment), over Paradise, etc. Andwhether we read here flK^py (Akisat), the biting orstinging, or go back to the root fc^pS? (A-kat), i. e. per-verted, or crooked, quasi the place for those who fol-lowed perverse or crooked paths, either of the aboveinterpretations will agree with the context.
