Hebrews 11:5

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Hebrews 11:5. By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.

It was by faith, not by works, that this truly gracious man, "was translated that he should not see death." We never read of any unbeliever "that he pleased God," but this is the inspired testimony concerning Enoch.
