Book excerpt: The prophet and scribe Janoj is an important character in history, not only Hebrew, being as an announcer and scribe who left a record of the cosmic order, explaining mysteries both on Earth and outside of it. Known as Enoch, Henoch, Henoch, Janok or Hanoc, his original Hebrew name is written with the letters Jet, Nun, Vav and Caf, meaning "calm" or "placid". This name is associated with the form Janun (clement, merciful). Although three Hanoch are mentioned throughout the Bible, Genesis 5:18-24 speaks of the genealogies of Adam, where this individual enters, as son of Yared (Jared) and father of several stems, among which Metushelaj (Methuselah) stands out. Although several of these manuscripts of his authorship were rescued only in the Ethiopian Bible, Janoj is known from other sources. Who was Janoch? He was a proto-Hebrew scribe, son of Jared, son of Mahalaleel, son of Kainan, son of Enos, son of Set, son of Adam (Adam), that is, the seventh after Adam. He wrote a large number of books, as he himself expresses, and others he had his descendants write, and he bequeathed them to his children so that they would pass them from generation to generation. Among these I have tried to compile as much as possible, and tried to translate literally from the Hebrew what is relevant, such as verses that are easy to be misunderstood. All this I have done to make the study of this fabulous content that has been given to us more comfortable.
