The Book of Enoch (1 Enoch)
An ancient Jewish religious work, traditionally attributed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah. The book is fundamental to the study of early Judeo-Christian angelology and demonology, famously detailing the fall of the Watchers (Angels) who descended to Earth and sired the Nephilim. It describes Enoch's journeys through the heavens and the underworld, the nature of the celestial order, and the final judgment. It is a cornerstone for the study of the Enochian magical tradition (Dee, Crowley).
