520. Verses 23, 24 And all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years And Enoch walked with God; and he was no more, for God took him.

'All the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years' means that they were few. 'He walked with God' as previously, is doctrine concerning faith. 'He was no more, for God took him' means that that doctrine was preserved for use by descendants.
