About The Book: The Book of Enoch, an ancient Hebrew apocalyptic text attributed to Enoch, delves into the origins of demons, Nephilim, and the moral necessity of the Genesis flood. Comprising three books, including 2 Enoch and 3 Enoch, the text dates between 300–200 BC. While Ethiopian Jews and the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church consider it canonical, other Jewish and Christian groups generally see it as non-canonical. Widely read during the Second Temple period, its canonicity remains debated. The New Testament's Epistle of Jude quotes Enoch, highlighting its influence. Despite not being part of the biblical canon for many, the Book of Enoch played a crucial role in shaping the worldview of New Testament authors. It offers valuable insights into ancient Jewish and early Christian beliefs, aiding researchers and students in understanding the Bible and the early Church age.
