Leviathan and Behemoth, Parted for the Last Day
Dated precisely to "the year 500... the seventh month, on the fourteenth day," Enoch sees the heaven of heavens shaken and the Head of Days enthroned. Overwhelmed, he falls on his face until an angel sent by Michael raises him; Michael explains the coming day of judgment, then Enoch sees two great monsters divided that day, Leviathan given to the sea, Behemoth to a wilderness east of the garden where Enoch's own ancestor was taken up. A long section of cosmic secrets, winds, stars, thunder, snow, dew, rain, follows.
