Fragments of ten Enoch manuscripts were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. The famous scrolls actually comprise only one part of the total findings at Qumran.The twentieth-century discovery of several Aramaic Enochian texts among the Dead Sea Scrolls prompted scholar J.T. Milik to compile a complete history of the Enochian writings, including translations of the Aramaic manuscripts. Miliks 400-page book, published in 1976 by Oxford (J. T. Milik, ed. and trans., The Books of Enoch: Aramaic Fragments of Qumran Cave 4, Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1976) is a milestone in Enochian scholarship, and Milik himself is no doubt one of the finest experts on the subject. His opinions, based as they are on years of in-depth research, are highly respected.
