And Enoch walked with God, and he was not for God took him. As [were] many of those in those first years, in this land, this experience.

Enoch is also one of the incarnations Cayce attributed to Jesus in his development as The Christ. The readings also suggest, as in the above, Enoch is representational of many in the earth at that time who had retained their spiritual and mental attunement and were not fully enmeshed in matter.

Man in his natural state, the readings have said, is soul, or spirit. Although not much is stated about Enoch in the Bible, the readings do give a few illuminating references. Enoch acted as a prophet who sought to give warnings about the impending Deluge.

Read the Scripture pertaining to the days of Noah, the law proclaimed by Enoch (found mostly in Jude and in the early chapters of Genesis).

He bestowed blessings and recommendations as well as warnings.

Again it was manifested in Enoch, who oft sought to walk and talk with that divine influence; with the abilities . . . to find self in the varied realms of awareness, yet using the office of relationships as a channel through which blessings might come, as well as [through which] recommendations and warnings might be indicated to others.

The possible extent of Enoch’s activities is suggested through a tradition that links his name with Hermes. Hermes, for long ages, has been considered the architect of the Great Pyramid of Cheops. Manly Hall, in his Encyclopedia of Mosaic Heremetics, Rosicrucian Symbolic Philosophy, in his commentary of Hermes states that many investigators believe Hermes is the same entity whom the Jews refer to as Enoch.

Enoch, in reading 5749-14, is included as one of the major incarnations in the development of the soul who became the man Jesus. Occasional references in other readings indicate Jesus had an incarnation in Egypt under the name Hermes. Further information in the readings, parallel with traditions maintained by the Jews, will strengthen the view that these, Enoch and Hermes, are one and the same.
