"... The Adamic tradition in 1QS is very similar to that found in the Slavonic apocalypse. In this respect, it is noteworthy that both in the Treatise on the Two Spirits and 2 Enoch, the Adamic speculations contain references to Adam’s dominion over the creation. Thus, for example, 1QS 3:17 relates that the deity “created man to rule the world.” Compare this passage to 2 Enoch 31:12, in which the deity tells the seventh antediluvian hero about the protoplast’s dominion: "And I assigned him to be a king, to reign on the earth, and to have my wisdom." Note that both testimonies about the protoplast’s dominion are given right before the association of the protoplast with the two ways tradition. If the Adamic allusions were indeed present in the early form of the tradition standing behind the speculation found in 1QS, then it is possible that 2 Enoch, with its more transparent presentation of the protoplast’s tradition, might stand even closer to this original makeup. Another similarity between 1QS and 2 Enoch concerns the tendency for internalization of the two way tradition. Scholars have noted that in 1QS the “two ways” became not simply the humankind’s ethical options but the inclinations of the human heart. In 1QS 4:23, for instance, the two spirits fight their battle in the heart of man. Scholars have suggested that in the Treatise on the Two Spirits the “myth of cosmic conflict has been psychologized, by locating the conflict in the human heart.” Similar “internalization” seems to take place in the Slavonic apocalypse as well. In particular, 2 Enoch 30:10 ..."
