The Book of Enoch 44
How to read these pages: the text itself comes first, verse by verse, in the volume's own translation. Beneath each verse stands its Meaning — a rendering of what the passage's terms name in the inner life, drawn from the correspondences the text itself uses. The text is never altered; the meaning is offered, not imposed.
Charles translation (1917)
1Also another phenomenon I saw in regard to the lightnings: how some of the stars arise and become lightnings and cannot part with their new form.
Also another phenomenon — an appearance shown to the inner eye — I saw in regard to the lightnings: how some of the stars, the fixed knowledges of truth, arise and become lightnings, sudden flashes of illumination, and cannot part with their new form.
