Enoch did not die

Enoch

Undated Past - Genesis 5:21-24

Enoch is the man that God took to Heaven while he was alive.

Enoch in Hebrew means: dedicated.

He was the man who walked with God.

He lived 365 years on the earth before God took him.



Background Reading:

Hebrews 11:5-6

By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death; he could not be found, because God had taken him away. For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.

Genesis 5:21-24

Enoch

21 When Enoch ,the son of Jared, had lived 65 years, he became the father of Methuselah. 22 And after he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters. 23 Altogether, Enoch lived 365 years. 24 Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

[Not the same Enoch as Cain's son Enoch]
