Enoch's Book?

 

 

Question: Why wasn’t the book of Enoch included in the Bible?

 

Because he didn’t write it!

 

 

As regards the existing books in the Bible; they were subject to prayerful examination, and the one’s referred to by Christ Jesus are included (see Links).

The ’Septuagint’ is the Greek translation of the old original Hebrew manuscripts, which thankfully were done before the destruction by fire of the originals.  They were translated approx. 150–250 BC.

 

Regarding the Qumran Scrolls, only the Isaiah text is almost complete, and is almost word for word complementary to our current Bibles, and is on permanent display in Jerusalem.  This is very encouraging regarding the whole of the ‘Old Testament’, as there is the likelihood that it represents the remainder of the lost copies for accuracy.  These were copied approx. 300 BC-200Ad by the Essens, who were in opposition to the Pharisees.

 

It is worth noting that Jesus’ most frequent reference to prophecy were Isaiah and Daniel; and particularly Matt. 24!

It is worth noting that the text of the Bible is considered by many, if not most people who are Christians, as “protected” by the “Holy Spirit” of God; Who over the “Ages” has “manipulated” discoveries, such as those of Qumran to that effect; and that would comply with 2Timothy 3:16–17!

 

It remains to be seen whether Enoch or Moses is the second Witness, as shown in Revelation!
