Watchers make a pact to pollute Adam’s bloodline in defiance to God and are amazed at what He does in return. Why would angels go to such extremes and risk losing their position in heaven, their thrones, dominions, and glory? The angels saw something so incredible and so superior to what they had that they would covet that to the point of sinning against God. The angels saw that the inheritance God planned to give Adam (the baptism of light) was far superior to their own station in heaven and plotted to take Adam’s inheritance by mixing their race with the human race. _____________________________
We’re going to continue on now in 1 Enoch chapter 6, but before we start reading 1Enoch chapter 6, let’s read something out of your King James Bible. Turning to Genesis chapter 6, you see a similarity here in the beginning of 1Enoch chapter 6 with Genesis chapter 6, which also says,
“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown” (Gen 6:1-4).
Here he’s identifying (Moses is) writing about this event regarding those that were born in the days prior to the flood and those that were born after the flood, the giants. Now, going to 1Enoch chapter 6 we read this:
1 In those days, when the children of man had multiplied, it happened that there were born unto them handsome and beautiful daughters.
We can see the genealogies of Adam, that this was approximately of Jared’s time. So, we see Adam and Seth, Enos, Cainan, Mahalaleel, and Jared. And then we’re going to see Enoch (who recorded this), being the 7th from Adam, Methuselah, (2) the 8th from Adam, Lamech, the 9th from Adam, and Noah, the 10th from Adam.
It’s kind of interesting that Enoch, the 7th from Adam was taken to the 7th heaven and received this revelation, and Noah, the 10th from Adam, was the one that carried the deliverance for the people, being the second week.
Again, we see how the Spirit of the Lord selected these particular numbers (7 and 10) to identify the time of knowledge and of empowerment, and a system which it would be birthed within, which happened in the days of Noah.
“In those days, when the children of man”
that is, those of the offspring of flesh and in the temporal form
“had multiplied”,
this is the time during the days of Jared, when the children of God (those which lived on the mount, wherein was located the cave of treasures, wherein the body of Adam was laid, and the body of Seth was laid there, and all those which proceeded from him up to the times of Jared.
Now, Jared turned the cave of treasures into a shrine, wherein also candlesticks were put, which would give light over against the bodies of Adam; and that shrine became a place of worship during that period of time.
At this time there was also competition taking place—that which was below the cave of treasures—that which was taking place in the area below, which was also known as Cain’s country. And the children of Cain also multiplied to the times of Genun (2nd Adam & Eve chapter 20).
Genun was around the time of Enos. Enos was a false messiah. Genun was a particular individual, a great-grandson of Cain. And during his time, we can also read in the book of Genesis, when the children of men began to design all kinds of musical instruments and alchemy; they began (4) to explore all these particular things, all these venues of that time, by the assistance of the fallen Watchers.
And during Jared’s time, the people began to go down from the mount and mingle with Cain’s children; Seth’s children began to mingle with Cain’s children.
“In those days, when the children of man had multiplied, it happened that there were
born unto them handsome and beautiful daughters.”
which we just read about in Genesis chapter 6.
2 And the angels, the children of heaven, saw them and desired them; and they said to
one another, “Come, let us choose wives for ourselves from among the daughters of
man and beget us children.
“And the angels”
the fallen Watchers; at this point being
“the children of heaven”
We’ve got the children of men (vs 1), which talks about that which is of the form of the flesh, and then we have the angels, being the children of heaven, the sons of God, which we read about in Genesis chapter 6.
Now, what were the angels doing down on the earth?
Well, the Watchers [Nephilim] were down here to oversee the affairs of man; they were appointed by God to assist the children of men and their routine of life. They began to teach the sons of man (the children of Adam) how to construct and build, how to extract metals from the earth, how to manufacture things, how to (for example) milk a cow, how to assist in child bearing and also in birthing, how to plant, how to sow seed, how to break the ground. The Watchers were overseeing the affairs of the children of men for over a thousand years.
What they were doing there in the first millennium, is what the angels will be doing in the 7th millennium; what they did in the first week is what they’re going to do also in the 9th week—after the earth is completely devastated (that is, during the 9th week), the angels (or, the Watchers) will again assist the children of men in reconstruction. They’re going to begin to rebuild the earth, which has just been devastated through the great tribulation.
Here, what they’re doing to the children of men during the first (6) millennium became a stumbling block, because the Watchers… God made a promise to them regarding wives, to sow seed, for the purpose of expanding and extending their house from that which was of their dimension into other dimensions. So, you can see that the angels also had gender assigned to them (male and female). You can see that also in the male and female angels, concerning the choirs of heaven.
Now, the Watchers were not given (at this time) wives; wives were withheld from them and the promise of that which God had promised them would be taking place during the 7th millennium. And because wives were withheld from them, they felt that perhaps God overlooked something here. So, as we go on here in verse 2,
“And the angels,”
or the Watchers,
“the children of heaven, saw them and desired them;”
in other words, they considered the idea of having a permanent presence down here in this dimension, and also a permanent presence for the daily routine of Adam, in instructing and assisting the Adamites, getting themselves settled.
“they saw them and desired them;”
they desired them that they also could be gods in this dimension.
Now, the Watchers took into consideration that Satan was cast out of heaven because of his transgression, but yet he also had an opportunity to express the God-Code. Satan had the opportunity to express his God-Code within this dimension, even though it was not given to him.
He was cast out of the abyss, which ended in this dimension, which is the 1st of the 7 heavens. And being cast out over the abyss, this is where he landed. [That shows that the earth is God's footstool, being the lowest of the heavens, and now the darkest of the heavens.] And Satan, being cast out, found an (8) opportunity to continue to express and to increase the God-Code that was in him, but in the form of iniquity. And the children of Satan are doing the same thing today.
The Watchers observed this, that even though Satan was cast out of heaven, he still had a form of existence and expression. They observed these things and included that within their conspiracy; “If Satan was allowed to still exist, why can’t we do the same things?”
They began to design this transgression, and it began with Semyaz’s counsel. His counsel was the result of reading the rejected mysteries. He had access to the libraries of heaven, and he read certain events that would take place, but he read these things in the rejected mysteries. And we’ll be talking more about the rejected mysteries as we go on.
Why is it that the angels fell? That’s because they had access to these things. And people are doing the same thing today; they read knowledge, which are rejected, and they extrapolate from the rejected mysteries, regarding their destiny.
“the angels, the children of heaven, saw them and desired them; and they said to one another,”
Now, this all took place in the counsel of Hermon; we call it the counsel of Ardos.
“they said to one another, “Come, let us choose wives for ourselves”
The Watchers constructed a castle, or a residence for themselves; it was a reference point of entry into this dimension, which was located near the gates that surround the earth. There’s 12 gates that surround the earth.
They constructed this as their reference point, like you would on a map. If you look at a map (10) you have a certain destination.
The angels were able to descend through the 7 gates of the 7 heavens through the central gate, which allowed them access into this dimension. They would gain access to this dimension with a password, going through the 7 heavens. (And we’ll be exploring more into that as we read on—the 12 gates that are about the earth, whereas through these particular gates, not only does the sun pass through these gates, and the moon, as well as also the constellations, and also where our weather patterns proceed from.)
So, we can see that God constructed a very intricate mechanism in order to oversee and to remain tethered to this dimension through the ministry of angels, which the Watchers were assigned to be a particular tether from the 7th to the 1st heaven. But they took counsel in Ardos, not Mount Olympus.
Now, the reason I’m going to explore this for a moment with you is that a lot of Greek mythology was born out of the book of Enoch and also from Hebrew traditions.
So, they assigned Mount Olympus as the mountain of the gods, whereas the real Mount Olympus was Mount Hermon. The Watchers constructed on that mount, a castle (or a temple), but it was a location where they assembled together on Mount Hermon.
On Mount Hermon they took counsel to overthrow man, and it was also on Mount Hermon, called the mount of transfiguration, where Jesus received his commission from Moses and from Elijah regarding our redemption. So, the transgression was born on Mount Hermon, and our redemption was assigned at that time to Jesus of Nazareth, for our redemption, to go to Jerusalem and die for our sins.
So, this is an interesting place here (Mount Hermon), which is still in existence today. They went to this place; this is where they would assemble (12) together on Mount Hermon.
Also, Enoch knew the place, and he would frequent the place (Mount Hermon), which means that it was within walking distance; Mount Hermon was located between Lebanon and Sangster. It’s still there today, but it was wiped clean by the flood.
It was also a place of great tradition, which you can read about in Deuteronomy (Deut 4:48), when the children of Israel came back into the land to conquer it from Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon (remember the word, Arnon, in book of Deuteronomy) [1], even unto mount Zion.
The Watchers named Mount Ermon (Hermon) also Mount Sion. It was a replica of the Sion that was in heaven. That’s why there was a construction put on that…Mount Sion…also known in the song: “Is Mount Sion on the sides of the North, the city of the great King”[2].
this is the Mount Zion which the Watchers called Mount Hermon, which was the place of counsel. You see the same thing in the 7th heaven. This is where the Apostle John, in the book of Revelation, stood and observed the holy city, New Jerusalem, which is the Mother of us all.[3] You see the similarities here in the book of Enoch and in the book of Revelation, in that which Enoch saw, and that which the Apostle John saw.
So, “From Aroer, which is upon the bank of the river Arnon (Deut 4:48) unto Mount Sion, which is Hermon.” See that? “Mount Sion, which is Hermon.” The Watchers named Mount Hermon Mount Sion, because it was a place of counsel where God was intervening with the children of men.
Also, we can see that it was in Mount Sion (Mount Hermon), where Og, King of Bashan, (who was a remnant of the giants Deut 3:11 [4]) (14) wanted to maintain tradition of his fathers, which were the giants. And he (Og) also reclaimed Mount Hermon for himself and for his fathers, which fell.
So, you can see the connection between Deuteronomy, Genesis, and the book of Enoch, and why it was important for Jesus to receive his counsel from his Father there (whereas the cloud overshadowed him, also Simon Peter—Peter, James, and John). And they said, “Let us build three temples here.”
Now, where did he ever come up with that idea– “Let’s build three temples? From the book of Enoch. Peter said to Jesus; “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here;”[5] “After all, a tradition was born here from the Watchers, which Lord, you spoke of, who fell and who took counsel here on the temple that they built; a temple of rebellion is now going to become…..Let’s make this now a point of reference for a temple of restoration for the whole earth.”
Remember that the apostles were looking forward to Jesus to establish the millennial reign, which is why it was confusing to them. Jesus, ascending up to Mount Hermon to receive his orders from his Father through Moses and Elijah, they thought for sure that this was now going to be a point of reference, a Mount Sion earthed again, where the millennial reign of Christ would emerge and overthrow the Roman Empire.
They got all this from the book of Enoch and from the words of the Lord, himself; ascending up on Mount Hermon, Jesus spoke a lot about the history of this. That’s why Simon Peter made that statement: “Let’s build here three tabernacles: one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—; Let this now be the reference point of the new millennial reign.
But this was the rejected mysteries, and this is what Peter had to understand… that Jesus was receiving orders to go to Jerusalem to die for the sins of the world, not to establish the millennial reign yet, because the first 8th week had to be completed, the time of darkness had to proceed that (16) to the time of the tribulation and the millennial reign of Christ. So, you can understand why the books of Enoch are important, for us to see this history.
The Watchers… God did not give wives to the Watchers as of yet. And the Watchers looked forward, by the promise of the Lord, that they also could breed with the daughters of men and also have children that would receive the eternal inheritance of the baptism of light, which would also give them a greater rank among the angels that God created.
Now, Semyaz was a leader, as we see in verse 3 of Enoch; 1Enoch 6:3:
3 “And Semyaz, being their leader, said unto them, “I fear that perhaps you will not
consent that this deed should be done, and I alone will become responsible for this
great sin.”
“And Semyaz, being their leader, said unto them,”
the other angels there—this was at a counsel of 200; and he said to them:
“I fear that perhaps you will not consent that this deed should be done, and I alone will become responsible for this great sin.”
When he says, great sin, it’s concerning that which is out of rhythm with the plan of God.
Semyaz had access to the libraries of heaven.
I saw the door to the libraries of heaven. The angels have access to these libraries, and upon access, they can read about the events that will be taking place within this dimension. So, reading about these events, they read about your life and the future that’s going to take place. And they continually prepared things down here for these events to come to pass.
Semyaz was afraid that they wouldn’t consent to this, that the other angels would not be reasonable about this idea and the plan (now) to intermingle or interface fire with water. How can you interface fire with water and come out with a new breed of people?
It was God’s promise to Adam; God made a promise to Adam that children of Light would proceed from Adam and Eve—that children of Light would come from them. (You can read about that in 1st Adam and Eve.)
That’s (18) going to happen, but it’s going to happen during the 9th week. We will see Adam and Eve again, and Adam and Eve, as all the holy ones, will birth children of Light from them. Those that survive the tribulation period…………..
…….. There will be three groupings of people that will be down in this dimension:
1) There’ll be the Watchers, who will engage with the daughters of men to birth children of flesh
2) There’ll be the holy ones, that’s us, who also will continue to build the house of God by birthing children unto a thousand generations.
3) There’ll be also the children themselves, the children of flesh, which will have survived the tribulation period, and will be a very, very small number
(as there’s almost 7 billion people in the world today.)
At the conclusion of the great tribulation, there’s only going to be a handful of Adamites left. But that handful of Adamites will become a seed of a trillion people at the end of the millennium. By the end of the millennium, the earth will be overspread again with the children of men. That sounds amazing, doesn’t it, but a thousand years, there will be no death. And those that are a hundred years old will be considered as children during the millennium.
So, Semyaz is the one who introduced this counsel. He called for the Watchers to come together to descend into this dimension. Let’s see what happened in verse 4:
4 “But they all responded to him, “Let us all swear an oath and bind everyone among us
by a curse not to abandon this suggestion but to do the deed.”
“But they,”
that’s all the chief Watchers,
“all responded to him,”
Semyaz; and they said this: “Let us all swear by an oath”
“Let us all swear an oath“
in service,
“and bind everyone among us by a curse”
The binding of the curse means, to abdicate his powers, which means that he would give up his powers and his thrones if he didn’t follow through with this deed.
Adam abdicated his throne when he gave heed to Satan’s (20) counsel. Jesus is restoring to us the throne, which Adam abdicated by Satan’s counsel.
That’s why we’re being born again. Our new birth now bridges that of the fall back into our true origin, being in the bosom of our Father. So, if your origin is the bosom of the Father, then your destiny is the bosom of the Father. But if your origin is the transgression of the flesh, then your destiny is that of hell—the lake of fire.
The curse by which the Watchers all bound themselves was to abdicate their powers and thrones. So, they bound themselves by a curse among each other to oversee that this conspiracy would follow through (to do the deed); all the Watchers binding themselves by Semyaz’s counsel was going to order their behavior by his oath; that is, if they all united together to do this conspiracy, they would all be able to achieve their goals, which was to gain this inheritance, or in the end, pollute Adam’s faith—to pollute their race.
Either we get it, or we destroy it. This was the counsel that took place on Mount Hermon, not Mount Olympus, but Mount Hermon; with the 20 chief ones gathered together that were over the 200, which were over thousands of other angels of other rankings:
You have your angels, your archangels, your archons, and authorities.
You have your dominions. You have your powers.
You have your cherubim, seraphim, and your thrones.
5 Then they all swore together and bound one another by the curse.”
6 “And they were altogether two hundred; and they descended into Ardos, which is the
summit of Hermon. And they called the mount Armon, for they swore and bound one
another by a curse.”
So, they all took counsel together there at the summit of Hermon, and they called the mount Armon (Ermon/Hermon), which is also known (as we read in Deuteronomy) as Mount Sion.
“And they swore and bound one another by a curse.”
They swore to resign their powers and thrones; by a unified vote they took this oath.
Now the names of them are these; you see this in verse 7.
7 “And their names are as follows: Semyaz, the leader of Arakeb, Reme’el, Tam’el,
Ram’el, Dan’el, Ezeqel, Baraqyal, As’el, Armaros, Batar’el, Anan’el, Azqe’el, Sasomasp
e’el, Tur’el, Yamayol, and Arazyal.”
Their names, the names of these thrones, or Watchers, when you read the book of angels in 2 Enoch, you will see that the Watchers (22) and the holy ones were far superior above all his other angels; the Watchers were far superior. God bestowed upon the Watchers powers, which the other angels of the other rankings and other orders did not possess. And part of those powers, which he bestowed upon the Watchers, was the power of transformation.
These are the powers that God will grant to us as the holy ones, the elect—the power of transformation. Not only will we be able to transform ourselves from flame to flesh and also ascend from the 1st to the 7th heaven, but we will also have access to the 3rd heaven and to the tree of life, as well as having access and secret names to go into other dimensions.
This is the powers bestowed upon the Watchers. And the Watchers were far superior to Satan, who was just a cherub. Satan was an archangel and a cherub, but he was not a Watcher. The Watchers were far superior to Satan. And he was cast out.
As we read on we’re going to see (and as we read in the book of Revelation) we’re going to see that there’s going to be a collusion between the Watchers and Satan’s kingdoms and Satan’s 13 princes.
So, the names of the Watchers are these:
The leader of this conspiracy was Semyaz; he was the leader of Arakeb, which was like a town elder or judge. That was his given region. He received a region of authority in this capitol, which was Arakeb on Mount Hermon (just like Washington DC is the capitol of the United States—in the Whitehouse). So the town called Arakeb is the Whitehouse, and it’s located in Mount Hermon, which is like the District of Columbia. That was his assigned region.
We also will be assigned regions during the 9th week. We will be the capitol of the regions, and the angels will construct our residences down here as a reference point, whereas we also will ascend and descend from the 7th to the 1st heaven. (24) Having the secret password and our ranking as holy ones, we also will ascend and descend. This will take place during the time of the millennial reign of Christ.
So, Semyaz was the leader of Arakeb. And next to him was another angel called, Reme’el.
There’s Rame’el, there’s Tam’el, there’s Ram’el, there is Dan’el, and there is Ezeqel. And then there’s Baraqyal, As’el, and there’s Armaros. (We’ll be reading more about and studying about each one of their particular skills in which they contribute to the conspiracy.) then there was Batar’el and Anan’el, Zaqe’el. There was Sasomasp e’el. Then there was another one called Kestar’el, Tur’el, Yamayol, and Arazyal.
Then there was other ones also which conspired with them: Amasras, Asder’el, Kokarer’el (which was over 200 of them). These were the names of these angels, which were the chiefs of the 200.
So, we can see the congress, and then Semyaz was the president and he had his own congress, or counsel, or cabinet members. And from them issued forth the laws, which the other angels were then servant to. We can see the same powers of Satan’s kingdom.
Satan, being the chief archangel of his orders and of his rank had numerous angels that were doing services for him, which were also other seraphim.
Satan was a cherubim and an archangel by rank. And he had other angels assigned to him who would carry out their duties. And under them were other angels, and under them were other angels called, powers. You see the same thing, which Apostle Paul wrote about in Ephesians, concerning, “above all principalities and powers” [6](26)
Now verse 8
8 These are their chiefs of tens and of all the others with them.
as we read on about these were the names of those, which took the counsel:
“These are their chiefs, of tens”
being even of lesser powers,
“and of all the others with them.”
These were assigned regions to oversee the progress of man and beast. They were assigned over these particular regions, over man and beast. Now, chapter 7.
