I thought that Enoch and his buddy had been made permanently immortal
by direct Divine Intervention, a season ticket, while the Solomonic
Gold was used to bring normal people back from death on a one-time
basis. The name "Enoch" has those connotations, someplace in Genesis
-- in between the garden and the ark, I think.
