=Did Noah watch Enoch?=
If you make a time line chart based on Genesis Chapter 5, you will find that Enoch was taken by God:
*69 years before Noah was born,
*569 years before God TOLD NOAH to build the ark, and
*669 years before the flood started.
This means that, contrary to what William Branham stated in the First Seal, Noah did not watch Enoch because Enoch was gone before Noah was even born.
The Bible also states that:
:'' The few people in the boat — eight in all — were saved by the water, '''which was a symbol pointing to baptism''', which now saves you.''  1 Peter 3:20–21 (GNT)
So it wasn't a type of the foolish virgin, it wasn't a type of the Jewish remnant, it was a symbol pointing to water baptism.

The Book of Enoch does detail a conversation between Noah and Enoch and it is assumed that is where William Branham took his idea from.
