25:1 And he said unto me: ‘Enoch, why dost thou ask me regarding the fragrance of the tree, and why dost thou wish to learn the truth?’ 25:2 Then I said to him saying: ‘I wish to know about everything, but especially about this tree.’ 25:3 And he answered saying: ‘This high mountain which thou has seen, whose summit is like the throne of Elohim, is His throne, where the Holy Great One, Yehuveh of Glory, the Eternal King, will sit when He shall come down to visit the earth with goodness. 25:4 And as for this fragrant tree no mortal is permitted to touch it till the great judgment, when He shall take vengeance on all and bring everything to its consummation forever. It shall then be given to the righteous and holy. 25:5 Its fruit shall be for food to the elect: it shall be transplanted to the holy place, to the temple of Yehuveh, the Eternal King. 25:6 Then shall they rejoice with joy and be glad. And into the holy place shall they enter; And its fragrance shall be in their bones, And they shall live a long life on earth, Such as thy fathers lived: And in their days shall no sorrow or plague Or torment or calamity touch them.’ 25:7 Then blessed I the Elohim of Glory, the Eternal King, who hath prepared such things for the righteous, and hath created them and promised to give to them. |

25:2 Enoch presents such a desirable quality for anyone who is seeking Yehuveh and His truth! “I wish to know about everything!” How much more might we know if, like Daniel, we would “set thine heart to understand” all that Yehuveh offers us.
