Excerpt from The Book of Adam and Eve, Also Called the Conflict of Adam and Eve With Satan: A Book of the Early Eastern Church, Translated From the Ethiopic, With Notes From the Kufale, Talmud, Midrashim, and Other Eastern Works

As to the Book of Enoch, it was known only through a quotation from it by S. Jude v. 14, 15; and after him, from allusions to it by S. Hilarius, S. Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Geo. Syncellus, and others - until it was discovered in Abyssinia by Bruce, who brought several Ethiopic cepies of it from thence to Europe; one of which is now in the Bodleian Library. This was published and also translated by Archbishop Lawrence, in 1838. A later and more accurate edition of it was issued by Dr. Dillmann at Leipzig, in 1851 from several mss. Brought from Abyssinia since the days of Bruce; and it has been translated more than once Within the last few years. It is highly interesting, as a work of the probable date of its composition - not long before or after the coming of Christ. It is often quoted in the following pages.
