A reading of 3 Enoch - Ascent Of Metatron: A virtual tour of: The Heavens, The Orders, The Wheels Of The Galgala (Ezekiels Wheels), the story of the generations of mankind, and all of time, are recorded in pictorial form in the constellations, (alot like the 'Aegis bearing Zeus') also plenty more detailed descriptions of the heavens and the earth's hidden workings.
Attributed to Rabbi Ishmael Ben Elisha.
3 Enoch was written by R. Ishmael in the 1st century, (around 70 AD)
From wiki: Ishmael ben Elisha (son of) Elisha [the] Kohen Gadol (High priest)"; sometimes in short Ishmael ha-Kohen, lit. "Ishmael the Priest") was one of the prominent leaders of the first generation of the Tannaim. Ishmael ha-Kohen was also one of the Ten Martyrs, and was executed along with Shimon ben Gamliel.
Ismael son of Elisha was alleged to have been a young boy during the Destruction of the Second Temple (in 70 C.E.). He is likely the grandson of the high priest of the same name.
Disposition: Ishmael's teachings were calculated to promote peace and goodwill among all. "Be indulgent with the hoary head;" he would say, "and be kind to the black-haired [the young]; and meet every man with a friendly mien" (Avot, iii. 12).What he taught he practised. Even toward strangers, he acted considerately. When a heathen greeted him, he answered kindly, "Thy reward has been predicted"; when another abused him, he repeated coolly, "Thy reward has been predicted." This apparent inconsistency, he explained to his puzzled disciples by quoting Gen. xxvii. 29: "Cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee" (Yerushalmi Berakhot, viii. 12a; Gen. R. lxvi. 6).
Ishmael was fatherly to the indigent, particularly to poor and plain maidens, whom he clothed attractively and provided with means, so that they might obtain husbands (Nedarim, ix. 10; 66a). One Friday night, while absorbed in the study of the Bible, he inadvertently turned the wick of a lamp; and he vowed that when the Temple was rebuilt, he would offer there an expiatory sacrifice (Shabbat, 12b).
Views on marriage: Ishmael manifested the same spirit of hope in declining to countenance the refusal of the ultra-patriotic to beget children under the Roman sway (Tosefta, Sotah, xv. 10; Bava Batra, 60b). Even under the conditions then existing, he recommended early marriage. He said, "The Scripture tells us, 'Thou shalt teach them [the things thou hast seen at Horeb] to thy sons and to thy sons' sons;' and how may one live to teach his sons' sons unless one marries early?" (Deuteronomy 4:9 Yerushalmi Kiddushin, i. 29b; Kiddushin 61a) EVEN THEN the 'Church' was up in their business, going against the scripture...that fast, 70AD!
interesting.
