1 Enoch 40:7

In 1 translation

1En-Charles
And I heard the fourth voice fending off the Satans and forbidding them to come before the Lord of Spirits to accuse them who dwell on the earth.Phanuel is set over the repentance and hope of the inheritors of eternal life (v. 9), and here restrains the Satans. These are ruled by a chief, Satan (liii. 3) to whom the Watchers became subject and so fell (liv. 6). They had access into heaven, xl. 7 (cf. Job i. 6). They tempted to evil (lxix. 4, 6), they accused (xl. 7), they punished, liii. 3, lvi. I, lxii. 11, lxiii. 1. (Interpolations lxvi. 1.)
