Apocalypse of Moses 1

Related ancient text — scholarly reference

Extra-canonical text — not LDS scripture and not in the KJV Apocrypha. Provided as scholarly reference for parallel literature of the Second Temple period and the early Christian era. Read with discernment; the Apostle Jude quotes 1 Enoch and Paul knew this material, but inclusion here is for study, not doctrine.

1This is the story of Adam and Eve after they had gone out of Paradise. And Adam knew his wife

2Eve and went upwards to the sun-rising and abode there eighteen years and two months. And

3Eve conceived and bare two sons; Adiaphotos, who is called Cain and Amilabes who is called Abel.

Public-domain text (R.H. Charles 1913 and equivalents). These works are not canonical, but several were widely read in antiquity and one (1 Enoch) is quoted by name in Jude 1:14–15. Useful for understanding the doctrinal landscape from which the apostles and earliest saints taught.
