Noah's appearance in extra-biblical texts, allegedly this is the dude chosen by a god who couldn't stop a flood [ now predictable/ avoidable with HAARP], to preserve humanity., this dude right here, i'm not kidding
In the Book of Enoch (a text not included in the Bible but significant in some Jewish and Christian traditions), Noah is described as having skin "white as snow" and hair "white as wool." Some have speculated that this description could align with albinism, a genetic condition characterized by a lack of pigmentation in the skin, hair, and eyes.
The description of Noah's unusual appearance at birth is found specifically in the Book of Parables (also known as the Similitudes of Enoch).
This section includes the story of Noah's birth in 1 Enoch 106–107, which is sometimes referred to as the Book of Noah within the broader compilation.
Key Passage:
In 1 Enoch 106, the tale describes how Noah's father, Lamech, reacts to the extraordinary appearance of his newborn son.
Here is a summary of the relevant verses:
Noah is described as having skin "white as snow" and hair "white as wool," and his eyes are said to glow like the sun. His appearance is so unusual that Lamech becomes afraid and wonders if the child is of divine or supernatural origin.
Lamech goes to his father, Methuselah, to express his concerns, fearing that Noah might be a descendant of the Watchers, the fallen angels who mated with human women to create the Nephilim.
Methuselah seeks guidance from Enoch, who reassures him that Noah's appearance is a sign of his special destiny. Enoch reveals that Noah will survive a great flood and that he is chosen by God to preserve humanity.
