An instructor in a church school where much attention was paid to sacred history, dwelt particularly on the phrase “And Enoch was not, for God took him.” So many times was this repeated in connection with the death of Enoch that he thought even the dullest pupil would answer correctly when asked in examination: State in the exact language of the Bible what is said of Enoch’s death.
But this was the answer he got:
“Enoch was not what God took him for.”
