The Oath That Holds Up Heaven and Earth
The chapter lists the fallen angels by name and details specific offenses — Jeqon who first led the "sons of God" astray, Asbeel who counseled them to defile themselves, Gadreel who showed the weapons of death and, the text says, led Eve astray, Penemue who taught writing with pen and ink, and Kasdeja who taught the wicked arts of harming the body and the unborn. It then turns to Kasbeel's oath, "Akae," the very name by which heaven was suspended, the earth founded on the water, and sun, moon, and stars are kept faithfully in their courses: and closes with the Son of Man's name revealed, judgment given to him, and the guilty bound in chains: "This is the third Parable of Enoch."
