In 1 translation

1En-Charles

And in those days shall punishment come from the Lord of Spirits, and He will open all the chambers of waters which are above the heavens, and of the fountains which are beneath the earth.LIV. 7–LV. 2. Interpolated. A digression on the first world-judgement–the Deluge and so a Noachic fragment. Cf. xxxix. 1, 2ᵃ, liv. 7-lv. 2, lx, lxv-lxix. 25. These all (1) disturb the context; (2) claim to be by Noah lx. 7-11, 24, 25, lxv-lxviii. 1; (3) misunderstand the Parables, e.g. combine lii. 1, 2 with liv. 1; (4) give a definite date, lx. 1; (5) in lxviii. 2-5 contradict liv. 4-6, lv. 3, 4; (6) confuse the Satans and the fallen angels, lxix, and make Semjâzâ the leader, not Azâzêl; (7) misuse borrowed technical terms and phrases, lx. 11, 24, lxvii. 8, 10: also liv. 9, lv. 1, lx. 10, lxvi. 1; (8) use the Samaritan chronology, not that of the LXX, see lxv. 2 (note) Jubilees x. 13, xxi. 10 mention a Book of Noah, whence these passages were interpolated to supply Enoch's silence about the Flood.
