Note 13 — III. SOURCES OF THE MYTH.
Reading edition
It would be an interesting question, but one that cannot be discussed here, to consider how far the idea of eternal Wanderers may have been primarily connected with the ever-returning heavenly bodies. Ewald and Goldziher agree that the years of Enoch’s visible life, 365, indicate the solar year. Ewald thinks he was probably a god of the New Year.
