Tertullian

  • “For Enoch, too, most righteous man, uncircumcised and inobservant of the Sabbath, He translated from this world; who did not first taste death, in order that, being a candidate for eternal life, he might by this time show us that we also may, without the burden of the law of Moses, please God.” — editor's note: See Gen. v. 22, 24; Heb. xi. 5.
