Chapters 60., 65-69:25 of the Ethiopic Enoch are without question derived from it. Thus 60 runs: </p> <blockquote><p>In the year 500, in the seventh month ... in the life of Enoch.</p></blockquote> <p>Here the editor simply changed the name Noah in the context before him into Enoch, for the statement is based on Gen. 5:32, and Enoch lived only 365 years. Chapters 6-11 are clearly from the same source; for they make no reference to Enoch, but bring forward Noah (10:1) and treat of the sin of the angels that led to the flood, and of their temporal and eternal punishment. This section is compounded of the <a href="/wiki/Semjaza" class="mw-redirect" title="Semjaza">Semjaza</a> and <a href="/wiki/Azazel" title="Azazel">Azazel</a> myths, and in its present composite form is already presupposed by 1 Enoch 88-90. Hence these chapters are earlier than 166 B.C. Chapters 106-107 of the same book are probably from the same source; likewise 54:7-55:2, and Jubilees 7:20-39, 10:1-15. In the former passage of Jubilees the subject-matter leads to this identification, as well as the fact that Noah is represented as speaking in the first person, although throughout Jubilees it is the angel that speaks. Possibly Eth. En. 41:3-8, 43-49, 59 are from the same work. The book may have opened with Eth. En. 106-107 On these chapters may have followed Eth. En. 6-11., 65-69:25, 60, 41:3-8, 43-44, 54:7-55:2; Jubilees 7:26-39, 10:1-15. </p><p>The Hebrew <i>Book of Noah</i>, a later work, is printed in <a href="/wiki/Adolf_Jellinek" title="Adolf Jellinek">Adolf Jellinek</a>'s <i>Bet ha-Midrasch</i>, 3:155-156, and translated into German in Rönsch, <i>Das Buch der Jubiläen</i>, 385-387. It is based on the part of the above Book of Noah which is preserved in the <i>Book of Jubilees</i>. The portion of this Hebrew work which is derived from the older work is reprinted in Charles's <i>Ethiopic Version of the Hebrew Book of Jubilees</i>, p. 179. </p><p>James Charlesworth writes (footnotes used for clarity)<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <blockquote><p>During the early parts of the second century B.C. a <a href="/wiki/Pseudepigraphon" class="mw-redirect" title="Pseudepigraphon">pseudepigraphon</a> circulated that contained considerable material concerning <a href="/wiki/Noah" title="Noah">Noah</a>.
