Berean Strong's Lexicon Enóch: Enoch Original Word: Ἑνώχ Word Origin: Derived from the Hebrew name חֲנוֹךְ (Chanokh) Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: H2585 (חֲנוֹךְ, Chanokh) Usage: In the New Testament, the name Enoch refers to a notable figure from the Old Testament, specifically the great-grandfather of Noah. Enoch is recognized for his exceptional piety and his unique departure from the earth, as he "walked with God" and was taken by God, bypassing death. This is highlighted in the genealogies and faith narratives of the Bible. Cultural and Historical Background: Enoch is a significant figure in Jewish tradition and is mentioned in the genealogies of Genesis. He is one of the few individuals in the Bible who did not experience death, as God took him directly. This event is seen as a testament to his righteousness and close relationship with God. Enoch's life and translation to heaven have been subjects of fascination and theological reflection throughout Jewish and Christian history.
