It's the job of a Moderator to do what the Administration asks...
even if it makes the job harder and having to follow the same request.

Back on topic...Elijah did not prophecy this.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru

As well, I see Enoch is mentioned in scripture, as well as Elijah and Elisha, but never Metatron. ?

Christianity.com -
"According to these writings, Metatron was once a human named Enoch, who is mentioned in the book of Genesis as a man who walked faithfully with God (though in one version, Metatron was never human, nor did he come from Enoch)"
"Placing emphasis on summoning, studying, or even praying to beings and power other than God ultimately comes from a place of pride. The Bible is clear that we have no “capacity for ascension” from ourselves but instead are totally depraved and are saved only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Whether or not there is an angel that resembles Metatron in some capacity, let us remember 1 Timothy 4:7: “Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly.”
In all things, let us focus on Christ, our all-sufficient Lord and Savior."

But we do know that Enoch was translated to be like one of glorious ones of God, and one would expect him to be given a new name, as with Elijah, the only other one recorded in Scripture to have been bodily beamed up, do you think that he is still in his old physical body?

The Books of Enoch the prophet, who inherited the throne of the Most High in the creation, which creation is the LOGOS God made manifest, the LOGOS, who is the essential divine reality of the universe from which all being originates and to which all must return at the close of each period of universal activity, from which books Jesus and his apostles from the Hellenistic northern area of Galilee, all taught, and the words of Righteous Enoch, were cherished by the early Christians up until the fourth century, when, under the ban of dogmatic authorities of the Roman church of Emperor Constantine, such as Jerome, Hilary and Augustine, who claimed Enoch's writings were heretical, they eventually passed out of circulation and by the middle of the 5th century they were thought lost for millennia.

Concerning the sons of God who descended in the days of Jared the father of Enoch, who Enoch calls ‘Watchers, or Observers,’ of who, ‘Azazel,’ was one of those observers, we read in the Book of Enoch the prophet, chapter 9 to chapter 10; “And Michael said to the heavenly Lord, "Seest what ‘AZAZEL’ hath done, who hath taught all unrighteousness on earth and has revealed the eternal secrets which were preserved in heaven, which men were striving to learn. And Semjaza, to whom you have given authority to bear rule over his associates and they have gone to the daughters of men upon the earth and have slept with them and revealed to them all kinds of sin etc.

Azazel had taught men to make swords, and knives, and shields, and breastplates, and made known to them the metals of the earth and the art of working them, and bracelets, and ornaments, and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the eyelids, and all kinds of costly stones, and all colouring tintures etc.

Through Enoch, his chosen heir, the Lord “Hide thyself”, past judgement on the observing angels who had forsaken their own original habitat and came down and defiled themselves with the daughters of men, saying to them; “You have been in heaven, but all the mysteries had not yet been revealed to you, and you knew only worthless ones, and these in the hardness of your hearts you have made known to the women, and through these mysteries women and men work much evil on earth.”

They were then to be bound and cast into the valley of the earth until seventy generations had passed, but Azazel was punished separate from the others, See the Book of Enoch the Prophet 10: 4-9; “And again the Lord said to Raphael: Bind Azazel hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness: and make an opening in the desert, which is in Dudael, and cast him therein. And place upon him rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with darkness, and let him abide there forever, and cover his face that he may not see light. And on the day of the great judgement, he shall be cast into the fire. And heal the earth which the angels have corrupted, and proclaim the healing of the earth, that they may heal the plague, and that all the children of men may not perish through all the secret things that the Watchers have disclosed and have taught their sons. And the whole earth has been corrupted through the works that were taught by Azazel: TO HIM ASCRIBE ALL SIN.

Moses, who was the adopted grandson of Pharaoh and who would have been afforded the best education in the country, may have been initiated into the circle of the guardians of the sacred secrets.

Moses took the bread or the sacred teachings of Egypt [The land of First Born] and removed the yeast and gave to the children of Israel the regulations, rules and laws, that the Israelites were to keep for all time. --------- In one of the religious regulations established by Moses, Aaron would place his hand upon the head of a scapegoat, symbolically transferring the sins of Israel to the goat, which was then sent out into the wilderness to Azazel.

Leviticus 16: 7-10; Then he shall take the two goats to the entrance of the Tent of the LORD's presence. There he shall draw lots, using two stones, one marked “for the LORD” and the other “for Azazel”. Aaron shall sacrifice the goat chosen by lot for the LORD and offer it as a sin offering. The goat chosen for Azazel shall be presented alive to the LORD and sent off into the desert to Azazel, in order to take away the sins of the people.

16: 20-22; When Aaron has finished performing the ritual to purify the Most Holy Place, the rest of the Tent of the LORD's presence, and the altar, he shall present to the LORD the live goat chosen for Azazel. He shall put both his hands on the goat's head and confess over it all the evils, sins, and rebellions of the people of Israel, and so transfer them to the goat's head. Then the goat is to be driven off into the desert by someone appointed to do it. The goat will carry all their sins away with him into some uninhabited land.

From where do you suppose that Moses received the information that all sin was to be ascribed to Azazel? And from where did the disciples of Jesus receive the information, that those sons of God would be chained in darkness till the day of their consummation? Certainly not from their Roman Old Testament, which is almost word for word the same as the oldest Hebrew Bible that has survived to modern times, which was created by scribes called Masoretes in Tiberias, Israel around 930 C.E.

In the Margins of the Catholic Study Edition of the Good News Bible, below Leviticus 16; it is written; (AZAZEL: the meaning of this Hebrew word is unknown, it may have been the name of some desert demon.) They wouldn’t have a clue. The builders of the Roman church of Emperor Constantine, who rejected Enoch, who was the Cornerstone to which the righteous were gathered in the creation of Gods first fruits, the Temple, ‘JESUS’ who said. “The stone that the builders rejected, has turned out to be the most important stone of all.

2 Peter 2: 4; God did not spare the angels who sinned, but threw them into hell, where they are kept chained in darkness, waiting for the Day of Judgement. Jude 1: 6; Remember the angels who did not stay within the limits of their proper authority, but abandoned their own dwelling place: they are bound with eternal chains in the darkness below, where God is keeping them for that great Day on which they will be condemned.

Enoch was carried to the ends of his universal generation, where he witnessed the heavens burn and fall as massive columns of fire beyond all measure in height and depth into the Great Abyss=Black Hole, which Enoch’s escorting angel described as the prison of all the stars and the host of heaven, beyond which, there was nothing.

From where do you suppose Peter learned that the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. On that Day the heavens will disappear with a shrill noise, the heavenly bodies will burn up and be destroyed, and the earth with everything in it will vanish.

You will not find those teachings in the Hebrew bible or Jerome’s translation of that bible.

Enoch, the foundation stone, the most important stone of all.

Peace be with you Morph.

The following are my exact words as written in post #4.
Enoch and Elijah are the only two recorded in the bible to have been taken up to the throne of the Most High in the creation, while still alive.
You must remember to check before letting your fingers race across the keyboard faster that your brain can keep up with them.

Peace.
