1 Enoch 16

1From the days of the slaughter and destruction and death ┌of the giants┐, from the souls of whose flesh the spirits, having gone forth, shall destroy without incurring judgement—thus shall they destroy until the day of the consummation, the great ┌judgement┐ in which the age shall be consummated, over the Watchers and the godless, yea, shall be wholly consummated."*The demons will not be punished until the final judgement, whereas the watchers are punished before and again at that judgement. This doctrine also appears in Jubilees 10:5-11, and in the N.T. Cf. Matt 8:29, 'to torment us before the time.' 2And now as to the watchers who have sent thee to intercede for them, who had been ╓aforetime in heaven╖, (say to them):*Here we might read a quotation in Syncellus ending–'and these are from the first book of Enoch concerning the watchers '. It limits the age of man to 120 years and so perhaps does belong to the lost apocalypse of Noah. See my forthcoming Commentary on Enoch, pp. 14, 15. 3“You have been in heaven, but ┌all┐ the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth." 4Say to them therefore: “You have no peace.”’
