“Sirens” in the Book of Enoch?

“Sirens” in the Book of Enoch? By James Scott Trimm In the Book of Enoch we read: “And the women also of the angels who went astray shall become sirens .” (1Enoch 19:2). Although the Ethiopic text has “ salamaweyan ” (“peaceful”) which is widely regarded as a corruption with the original reading being that found in the Greek εις σειρηνας “into sirens.”  This is certainly a passage which we would like to see in the Aramaic, much less the lost original Hebrew, but unfortunately the Aramaic for this passage has not survived. In Greek mythology, the Sirens were beautiful yet dangerous creatures, who lured nearby sailors with their enchanting music and voices to shipwreck on the rocky coast of their island.  So why would the Book of Enoch refer to “sirens”.  Why would an ancient Hebrew text refer to “sirens” and what was the original Hebrew word(s) behind “sirens”? “Sirens” in the LXX In the Greek Septuagint the Greek word σειρηνας (sirens) does...

Secrets of the Oath that Binds the Fallen Angels

Secrets of the Oath That Binds the Fallen Angels By James Scott Trimm We read in the Torah: 1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 That the sons of Elohim saw the daughters of men, that they were fair. And they took them wives, whomsoever they chose. 3 And YHWH said: My Spirit shall not abide in man forever. For that he also is flesh; therefore shall his days be a hundred and twenty years. 4 The N’filim were on the earth in those days and also after that, when the sons of Elohim came in unto the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. The same were the mighty men that were of old--the men of renown. 5 And YHWH saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil; continually. 6 And it repented YHWH that He had made man on the earth, and it grieved Him at His heart. 7 And YHWH said: I will blot out man whom ...

Judah in Prophecy: You Aint Seen Nothin Yet!

Judah in Prophecy: You Aint Seen Nothin Yet! By James Scott Trimm The concept of the Two House message was an important message for the world and it generated a good deal of excitement, but it was not the last stage of restoration. The Two House message had to do with the grafting in of “wild branches” (Ephraimites) into the cultivated olive tree (Judah). Now Romans 11 does discuss this stage of the restoration, but it also tells us that an even more powerful stage will involve Judah being grafted back into its own olive tree: And if their stumbling became riches for the world, and their loss, riches to the Goyim: how much more therefore , their fullness? (Rom. 11:12 HRV) For if their reprobation was reconciliation to the world, how much more therefore , their return, but life that is from among the dead? (Rom. 11:15 HRV) 23 And those, if they do not remain in their lack of trust, also will be grafted in: for Eloah is able to graft them in again. 24 For if...
