GUIDED PATHWAY · 11 RECORDS · 7 RELATIONSHIPS
Seven days through Scripture, canon, and memory
A one-week path that keeps text, tradition, artifact, and reception visibly distinct.
Canonical equivalence NOTextual equivalence NO
THE FULL WEEK
Each day names its evidence lane.
Meet Enoch as a preserved work
Read: Study metadata for 1 Enoch and the linked manuscript catalogs.
Practice: Name what the artifacts establish and what a catalog cannot establish.
Read Jude's own argument
Read: Jude 3-25, with attention to verses 14-15.
Practice: Distinguish explicit attribution from broader claims about dependence or canon.
Compare Genesis and Jubilees
Read: Return to a Genesis episode before using the Jubilees study record.
Practice: Label shared plot, expansion, interpretation, and unresolved questions separately.
Trace Acts and Ethiopian church memory
Read: Acts 8:26-40 and the linked church-history source.
Practice: Mark each claim as biblical text, church tradition, or later historical evidence.
Hear biblical Ethiopia in Black reception
Read: Psalm 68, then inspect the linked historical document.
Practice: Ask how date, audience, oppression, mission, and political purpose shape the use of verse 31.
Build an honest parallel-canon map
Read: Review the two canon profiles and all provenance labels.
Practice: Explain one relationship without implying canonical or textual equivalence.

Genesis
Canonical and available in the complete KJV reader.
Named in the church-hosted Ethiopian Orthodox Old Testament list.
The KJV reader's book of beginnings, covenant, family, flood, and patriarchal promise. It is also a major point of literary comparison for Enochic and Jubilees traditions, but comparison does not make those works the same text.

QUESTIONS THAT GUARD THE STUDY
What does Genesis itself say before a later work is consulted?
Which names or events are shared, and which details belong only to a later retelling?
RELATIONSHIPS · NOT EQUIVALENCES
2 connected recordsGenesis ↔ 1 Enoch
Genesis names Enoch and supplies primeval figures and episodes that later Enochic literature develops in distinct forms.
Canonical equivalence: NOTextual equivalence: NO
Shared figures and themes do not make Genesis and 1 Enoch the same work or give them the same status in every tradition.Genesis ↔ Jubilees
Jubilees retells and interprets material associated with Genesis and early Exodus in its own literary organization.
Canonical equivalence: NOTextual equivalence: NO
A retelling is neither a duplicate text nor proof of equal canonical status across communities.PROVENANCE LEDGER
