Enoch Is Taken Up, Set Between Two Winds
Enoch's name is "raised aloft" from among the living to the Son of Man and the Lord of Spirits; he is carried "on the chariots of the spirit" and vanishes from among mortal men. He is set in a place between the north and west winds, where angels measure out a place for him among "the first fathers and the righteous."
