About the Author
R. I. Burns is a sixth-generation San Franciscan, church-planter, pastor, biblical researcher, and counselor. He came to faith in Jesus Christ during the Jesus Movement while still in high school.
For two decades, Burns has devoted himself to the careful study of the Book of Enoch and its place in the larger biblical story. This edition is the fruit of that long labor.
