Graphic Bible · Scene 2 of 11

Enoch leans attentively toward an unlettered-facing rolled recording surface.
Artwork is an interpretation. Scripture is quoted from the People’s Open Bible. Actor identities, apparent ages, costume, house, recording medium, represented counts, landscapes and celestial appearances are artistic choices, not historical, manuscript, archaeological or astronomical evidence. Dream imagery is not an actual disaster. Uncertain critical-edition readings remain disclosed in the POB notes.

Story guide: The roll evokes learning; its medium and setting are artistic staging. No unspecified vision content, teacher or wife is invented.
