1 Enoch 97
The selected Charles 1906 edited text and its POB working translation, not a new manuscript collation. Images are disclosed interpretations, not divine portraits, authenticated events or physical cosmology. Chapter artwork disclosure: Cinematic hyper-realistic artwork is disclosed fictional staging, not authenticated portraits, geography, vessel construction, material chronology, divine embodiment or manuscript evidence. Anonymous recurring figures illustrate addressed groups without identifying present-day peoples. The narrator, listeners and pale-robed messengers are fictional casting. Generic recitation imagery supplies no named reader; its additional background listeners are not the three recurring accused figures. Abandoned stonework and ordinary flowing water are visual metaphors, not source-attested buildings or physical mechanisms. Judgment and curse are not embodied; no active divine rejector is manufactured. The notes at 97:5 and 97:6 explain uncertain wording and give alternate Ethiopic readings. The images do not settle those readings.

Current canonical draft wording shown for private artwork and source review. This does not certify manuscript wording, human review, scene alignment, or publication.
Chapter and verse addresses follow the supplied selected-edition POB records. Each available verse is displayed once; artwork does not certify source completeness.
- 97:5[a] The final Ge’ez expression is unclear; another Ethiopic form of the text reads “your judgment.”
- 97:6[a] The Ge’ez verb is uncertain; another Ethiopic reading says that every such work “will be rejected.”
- 97:10[a] The Ge’ez says “your falsehood will flow like water.” The image can also mean that lies pour out like a stream.
