*The Jewish Apocalyptists, or ‘Revealers’, began to write around 200-150 BC[E], and continued for about 3 centuries, ie to c.100-150 CE. 

This period (approximately including the Maccabaean Era of Jewish history) is at around the great [sic] C~ degree of Human history; we are at another, and just as our prophets may be great reformers centred around the 15^th century CE, so also our apocalyptic ‘literature’ could be something as mundane as science fiction, in literature and also in film.

*Ref The Book of Enoch, tr[anslated by] R.H. Charles, Introduction by W.O.E Oesterley, pXI. (London, SPCK, 1917-1980)
