Heaven?

The Book of Enoch description of the place where Enoch saw God is like the geological phenomena of crystal caves within mountains, an example of which is found in Naica, New Mexico. Yet one detail is puzzling. The description tells of the ceiling of the cave being like the path of the stars in the heavens. It occurs to me that another geological structure might be involved, in addition to the crystal cave. A transform fault running deep into the mountain. This could manifest as a slit going from the cave up to the surface. Archaeology and geography of one region fits with the description and with other ancient sources about a mountain cave abode of the supreme God, that of the Lebanon and Hermon mountain ranges through Lebanon. It matches accounts from sources such as the Epic of Gilgamesh about the Cedar Forest associated with God’s habitation. It runs South even towards Jerusalem too via the Jordan valley. It runs on further into the Red Sea and then the Rift Valley. It is such a fault. Light from the stars might somewhere in the mountain ranges of Lebanon penetrate down to deep mountain caves.
