In God’s Image and Likeness 2
Enoch, Noah, and the Tower of Babel
Moses 7: The City of Enoch

Part of our book chapter reprint series, this article originally appeared in In God’s Image and Likeness 2: Enoch, Noah, and the Tower of Babel (2014) by Jeffrey M. Bradshaw and David J. Larsen.

Abstract: This chapter comments in detail on the prophecy of Enoch, and on his grand vision of eternity. In the first part of the vision, we see how the stories of rescue and exaltation in the accounts of Noah and Enoch share a common motif of water. In the case of Noah, this has reference to the Flood. In the case of Enoch, he witnesses the bitter tears of four distinct parties: God, the heavens, Enoch, and the earth. In the second part of the vision, the prophet witnesses the exaltation of his people, and an account of the return of their city to the earth in the last days.

About the Interpreter Foundation Book Chapter Reprint Series

The purpose of this reprint series is to make individual chapters from books published by The Interpreter Foundation more accessible to readers. Chapters from large format books will be made available as pdf files, while chapters from smaller format books will appear within the Interpreter journal, making this content available in a form suitable for many popular digital readers.

Although in some instances the formatting and pagination may have been changed, the content of this chapter, like others in this reprint series, is identical to what appeared in its original book publication. It has not been updated to incorporate research that has appeared subsequently nor to reflect the current practice of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to use the full name of the Church and to avoid terms such as “Mormon” and “LDS.”
