"This paper explores the relationship between Zosimos of Panopolis and the Book of Enoch, focusing on the perception of alchemy as a form of forbidden knowledge. It examines Zosimos’ references to fallen angels and their teachings in alchemical practices, highlighting the influence of Hellenistic Judaism, particularly through gnostic currents. The discussion aims to contextualize Zosimos within the broader dynamics of ancient philosophical traditions, particularly his syncretic views on Jewish and Egyptian alchemical customs and his engagement with esoteric texts."
