Where does it say that?

Gen 5:23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.


Gen 5:24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

God took him but it does not say where. Also it says "all the days of" like he is no longer alive.

Heb 11:5 
By faith Enoch was translated (G3346) that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated (G3346) him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. 

Strong's Greek: 3346. metatithemi -- I transfer, change, to turn one thing into another, to turn about, figuratively, to transmute

1Co 15:52 
In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed (G236). 

Strong's Greek: 236. allassó -- to change, alter, exchange, transform, to cause one thing to cease and another to take its place, to exchange one thing for another, to transform

Interesting the word Paul used for Enoch is the same as removed, carried, deserted, etc. but not the same as Changed to what happens to our bodies.

I think that Enoch was definitely carried away but I would not say he was resurrected at that time since the Bible clearly states Christ was the first to rise from the dead.

So if Enoch had not risen from the dead had he died before Christ or was he still alive?

The Bible definitely makes it seem like he had died. Maybe not a normal death but still passing from living to death.

Gen 5:23 So all the days of Enoch were three hundred and sixty-five years.
