Abstract :
The aim of this article is to show that the Ethiopic Book of Enoch (1 Enoch) has been quoted and commented by the Book of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth, a text written by an Ethiopian Monk, in the 15th Century. The Book of the Mysteries of Heaven and Earth is focused on an allegorical interpretation of texts like the Book of Genesis, the Apocalypse of John and 1 Enoch.
