Enoch

Enoch is a figure associated with Jewish traditions implying a divine dualism. In 1 Enoch: Book of Parables, Enoch views the son of man enthroned in Heaven, and later they prove to be the same. The identification of Enoch with Metatron in 3 Enoch, where the name first appears, is not explicitly made in the Talmud.

Source passages

“The book describes the link between Enoch, son of Jared (great-grandfather of Noah) and his transformation into the angel Metatron. This Enoch, whose flesh was turned to flame, his veins to fire, his eye-lashes to flashes of lightning, his eye-balls to flaming torches, and whom God placed on a throne next to the throne of glory, received after this heavenly transformation the name Metatron.”
