Mythology Rediscovered

Field guides to the world beneath the text.

The Book of Enoch is quoted in the Letter of Jude, yet only the Ethiopian and Eritrean Orthodox churches keep it in their Bible. The King James Bible uses the one word hell for four different words in Hebrew and Greek. Each guide quotes the ancient texts directly, so you can check every claim yourself.

The Field Guides

Each one takes a single question and follows it through the primary texts, with the passages quoted in full.

The Method

Quoted, not paraphrased.

Ancient texts are easy to make sound mysterious. The more useful job is showing what they actually say and marking clearly where interpretation starts.

  1. The text comes first

    Passages are quoted word for word from public-domain translations such as R. H. Charles’s 1 Enoch and the King James Bible, with chapter and verse.

  2. Disagreement stays visible

    Where readers have understood a passage in different ways, the guide sets out each reading instead of choosing one quietly.

  3. Interpretation is labelled

    Anything that goes beyond what a source states is marked as a reading, on the page where it appears.

And all shall be smitten with fear,
And the Watchers shall quake,
And great fear and trembling shall seize them unto the ends of the earth.
1 Enoch 1:5, translated by R. H. Charles (1917)
