Did Noah take two of every animal on the ark, or were there many more? The story you know might not be the whole story.

In this deep-dive Bible study, Christopher Enoch continues the Genesis Series by meticulously breaking down Genesis chapter 7. Go beyond the surface-level reading of the flood narrative as Christopher compares five different ancient manuscripts side-by-side: the Masoretic Text, the Greek Septuagint, the Syriac Peshitta, the Latin Vulgate, and the ancient Samaritan text.

Discover the fascinating discrepancies and clarifications these texts provide. We'll explore the critical distinction between the number of clean and unclean animals brought aboard—was it seven pairs or just seven total? This detail reveals profound insights into God's law, sacrifice, and provision, showing that concepts of righteousness and dietary laws existed long before Moses.

Christopher also discusses key verses about the "windows of heaven," the detailed timeline of the flood, and the powerful moment when God Himself shuts the door of the ark. If you want to increase your knowledge of the scriptures and understand the textual history of the Bible, this episode is for you.

In this eleventh installment of the Genesis Series, Christopher Enoch takes a deep dive into the story of Noah's Ark and the flood, challenging common assumptions. By examining various ancient manuscript families, including the Masoretic text, Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate, and Samaritan Torah, Christopher reveals what the original texts say about the ark's design and the flood's scope. He analyzes the Hebrew word "Eretz" to explore the possibility of a local flood and addresses the logistical questions that arise from a global flood narrative. The video also touches on the reasons behind the flood, the true shape of the ark, and insights from the Book of Enoch.

What was society really like in the days of Noah? Was it just violence, or something far more sinister?

Join Christopher Enoch for Part 10 of the Genesis series for an exhaustive deep dive into Genesis 6:11-12. In this study, we go beyond the surface-level reading to uncover the true nature of the corruption that led to the great flood. We compare ancient manuscripts like the Masoretic Text, the Septuagint, and the Syriac to understand the critical difference between "violence" and "iniquity."

Discover what ancient Jewish scholars like Rashi and Ibn Ezra, and texts like the Book of Jubilees and the Sibylline Oracles, reveal about the extreme lewdness, idolatry, and unnatural perversions of that time. We also explore the evidence for Noah being a "preacher of righteousness" and uncover the powerful message of repentance he delivered to a world that would not listen.

Have you ever wondered if the Bible you read today is 100% perfect and accurate? What if the ancient manuscripts tell different stories, especially when it comes to the biblical timeline from Adam to Noah?

In Part 8 of the Genesis Series, Christopher Enoch dives deep into the genealogies of Genesis chapter 5, comparing five of the most important ancient manuscripts side-by-side: the Masoretic Text, the Greek Septuagint, the Samaritan Pentateuch, the Syriac Peshitta, and the Latin Vulgate.

Using a detailed comparison chart, Christopher reveals surprising and significant discrepancies in the ages of the patriarchs. Are these simple scribal errors due to poor handwriting, or evidence of deliberate changes over the centuries? This investigation challenges the idea of a single, perfect biblical text and explores the complexities of textual transmission.

In this video, we cover:

A chronological overview of the five major manuscripts being compared.

A line-by-line comparison of the ages of Adam, Seth, Enoch, Lamech, and more.

Discussion on potential scribal errors versus intentional alterations.

How the Vulgate and Syriac texts align with (or diverge from) the others.

Q&A on the Masoretes, why people lived so long before the flood, and more.

Join Christopher Enoch for this critical examination of scripture in the ongoing Genesis Series.

Why did God really reject Cain's offering? What was the murder weapon? And how did Cain eventually die?

In this in-depth study of Genesis chapter 4, Christopher Enoch uncovers the details of the story of Cain and Abel that you won't find in most Bibles. By comparing the Masoretic text with more ancient manuscripts like the Septuagint and extra-biblical sources like the Book of Jasher and the Book of Jubilees, we explore the dramatic events of the world's first family.

We'll tackle the tough questions:

Was it really about a "blood sacrifice," or was there another reason God favored Abel's offering?

What crucial sentence is missing from Genesis 4:8 in modern Bibles?

What argument led to the first murder?

What was the "Mark of Cain"?

How did Cain die? Ancient texts offer a shocking and violent account of his final days.

Join us as we analyze the scriptures, compare the ancient texts, and piece together a more complete picture of Cain, his crime, his curse, and his lineage.

Join Christopher Enoch for Part 5 of the Genesis series as we do a deep dive into the Fall of Man in Genesis Chapter 3. In this revelatory Bible study, we go far beyond a surface-level reading to uncover the hidden meanings behind the serpent's temptation of Adam and Eve.

We will compare the Masoretic text (found in most Bibles like the KJV and NKJV) with the more ancient Septuagint and Samaritan texts to reveal critical differences in the story—including the serpent's true, cunning question that tricked Eve.

Discover the "Trinity of Sin"—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—and see how these three temptations are the foundation for all sin, even connecting directly to the temptation of Christ in the wilderness.

Plus, we explore profound theological questions raised by the text:

Why is the Torah considered the highest authority in scripture?

Did God truly not know where Adam was?

Do angels deliver your prayers? We'll look at shocking evidence from the Book of Revelation and the Book of Enoch that could revolutionize your prayer life.

If you're ready to challenge what you've been taught and gain a deeper understanding of scripture, this is a study you won't want to miss.
