We know a lot about Elijah - but who is Enoch?

Wiki:

According to the Book of Genesis, Enoch (/ˈiːnək/; Hebrew: חֲנוֹך‎; Ḥanōḵ) was a son of Cain, and father of Irad. After Cain arrived in the Land of Nod, to which he was evicted by the Lord as his punishment for murdering his brother Abel, his wife became pregnant and bore Cain's first child, whom he named Enoch.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


Enoch had a rare personal friendship with God:

This article sheds some light on that friendship:

Friendship With God - A Look at the Life of Enoch

Excerpt:

Near the beginning of biblical history, we find a man known for friendship with God. We do not know much about the life of Enoch, but we do know that “after he became the father of Methuselah, Enoch walked faithfully with God 300 years and had other sons and daughters” (Gen. 5:22). It seems that, at the age of 65, when Enoch’s son Methuselah was born, Enoch experienced a personal revival. From then on, in his life of 365 years, he walked faithfully with God...

More from thew above article:

He was a family man, with a wife and children and responsibilities. Yet he learned to cultivate intimacy with God in the midst of daily life. As a result, in the space of three verses, the fact that Enoch walked faithfully is mentioned twice. This repetition is not by accident.
 Quoting: b4its2l8


We learn a little about Enoch in the book of Genesis - where there are 3 verses devoted to him

The first verse is Genesis 5:21

As noted above Enoch had a son at 65 - not that he died by the age of 65:

And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah
 Quoting: b4its2l8


Returning to Genesis 5:

22 And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah

From Biblehub:

The Holy Spirit, instead of saying, Enoch lived, says, Enoch walked with God. This was his constant care and work; while others lived to themselves and the world, he lived to God. It was the joy of his life.
