(Old Facebook Post – Revised)

It’s quiz time: According to the Bible, did Enoch & Elijah die natural deaths?

Hint #1: Read Heb 11:5, 13.(Use NASB or some other “word-for-word” translation, not NIV, etc.)

For the sake of time, I’ll cut to the chase: I think it’s quite likely that Enoch and Elijah _did_ die, and that the popular interpretation we’ve all heard that “they just got took”… is inaccurate. Instead, they may have experienced something more like what Phillip did, when he “got took” to meet the Ethiopian eunuch, but later died. To study more, try visiting:

I didn’t scour these sites for possible heresies, so of course compare all with the Word.
