Verse 14 A. Hair White as Wool

Hair White as Wool

 

Revelation 1:14:  His head and His hair were as white as wool.”

            A direct referent for this description is also found in the book of Enoch (46.1).

1.And there I saw One, who had a head of days, And His head was white like wool, And with Him was another being whose countenance had the appearance of a man, and his face was full of graciousness, like one of the holy angels.

And I asked the angel who went with me and showed me all the hidden things, concerning that Son of Man, who he was, and whence he was, (and) why he went with the Head of Days? 3. And he answered and said unto me: ‘This is the Son of Man who hath righteousness, With whom dwelleth righteousness, And who revealeth all the treasures of that which is hidden, Because the Lord of Spirits hath chosen him, And whose lot hath the pre-eminence before the Lord of Spirits in uprightness for ever.

            It would be profitable reading for any who have the inclination to read this whole passage in Enoch.
