Enoch 73 — The Laws of the Moon

Book of Enoch · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph

1And after this law I saw another law dealing with the smaller luminary, which is named the Moon.

2And her circumference is like the circumference of the heaven, and her chariot in which she rides is driven by the wind, and light is given to her in (definite) measure.

3And her rising and setting change every month: and her days are like the days of the sun, and when her light is uniform (i.e. full) it amounts to the seventh part of the light of the sun.

4And thus she rises. And her first phase in the east comes forth on the thirtieth morning: and on that day she becomes visible, and constitutes for you the first phase of the moon on the thirtieth day together with the sun in the portal where the sun rises.

That is the first paragraph of Enoch 73
