- The book of Enoch, often called 1 Enoch, is an apocryphal scripture that has had a profound impact on Second Temple Judaism and Early Christian theology. The book of Enoch tells the tails of the many visionary and apocalyptic visions that the biblical figure Enoch experiences as he travels through the glories of heaven and the terrors of the underworld.
Enoch, a character that can be found in the book of Genesis in the Old Testament, is the star of this ancient non-canonical text. Enoch encounters the evil Watchers and the frightening giants called Nephilim. The book of 1 Enoch is quoted by Jude in the New Testament, was found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, and is still considered scripture and is part of the Bible in the Ethiopian Orthodox Church. 1 Enoch even references many sayings often associated with Jesus, like the "Son of Man" and "The pre-existent Savior." The book of Enoch is one of the most fascinating works in all of ancient literature.

I've seen several videos on the book of Enoch and found this video to be one of the most well done on the topic. Very impressive and great storytelling. I find the person of Enoch to be quite fascinating and how the myths that evolved around him grew more intense as time went on.
Thank you so much Mamma Vicki! Means a lot to me! Much love!
Yessss, my Fiancé and I were talking last night about The Book of Enoch and here you go making a Video! Thanks for the Knowledge! 😅😅
Great timing! Thanks for the comment and the kind words! Much love!
More on Enoch please!🙏🏽
You got it! Thanks for the comment Sarah-20!
...¶...AND those men took me and led me up on to the second heaven, and showed me darkness, greater than earthly darkness, and there I saw prisoners hanging, watched, awaiting the great and boundless judgement, and these angels were dark-looking, more than earthly darkness, and incessantly making weeping through all hours.
2 And I said to the men who were with me: 'Wherefore are these incessantly tortured?' they answered me: 'These are God's apostates, who obeyed not God's commands, but took counsel with their own will, and turned away with their prince, who also is fastened on the fifth heaven
3 And I felt great pity for them, and they saluted me, and said to me: 'Man of God, pray for us to the Lord'; and I answered to them: 'Who am I, a mortal man, that I should pray for angels? who knoweth whither I go, or what will befall me? or who will pray for me?"...from the "Forgotten Books of Eden" Collection...'The Secrets of Enoch'...Peace on Firm Earth & Flat Water -the apostle john
Thanks for your analysis of this work. Absolutely I'd be interested in the views of other cultures on Enoch!
I appreciate that very much Laurens! More on the way! Thanks for the comment!
Really good. The person who said you are under-rated is very right! Your material is excellently presented and easilly absorbed. I would love to have a presentation on Enoch as a character!
Thank you very much David! I appreciate that so much! More on the way!
This is one of the best and most enjoyable videos on 1 Enoch that I have ever seen. Very well done!
Wow, thanks for that great praise! I really appreciate that! Peace to you!
@@ReligiosityPlus Peace to you as well!
Yes please! Would love to see more on Enoch!!!
Does anyone else think they should make a TV show out of this? This sounds WAY more intense than Game of Thrones. I'd watch it all day!
I agree! Very interesting stuff. Lots of creatures, characters, and side stories!
@@whitwhit95 honestly, most of the bible is that way! I've seen fictional shows about other ancient mythologies, so why not one that's ancient and modern?
@@patbilek692 such a good point! I feel like Bible shows are all about people from the Bible. We need some about the creatures too!
@@whitwhit95 I completely agree!
If Hollywood really tried, they could make a movie out of this easy! They are sitting on a gold mine!
Very nice video. Nicely done! We’d love to hear more.
Great study, as always!
Thank you Klavs! I appreciate the comment! Much love!
For some reason I'm very fascinated by the Book of Enoch. I'd love more content from you on it! I would really love more. Anything about it you find interesting, please make a video about it, I'll watch it all.
I love the way you present this type of content. Easy to follow, well researched, and enjoyable as well. Congrats on the wonderful video!
Thank you very much! Much love!
I love the different dream visions. I think part of it is it feels like something that can be closely related to things we may have today. Often time, the miracles or visits (like Paul/Saul) seems like such distant events, but dreams are things we all do. So, I always find the dream meanings and such so interesting! I also love me a good Nephilim story!
Another great video! You do so much research and it shows!
Thank you Whitley! It was kind of hard to figure out how to do the editing on the dream visions because they are so obscure! I really appreciate the comment!!!
You deserve leagues more views & subscribers comrade.
Would be interested in a vid on Enoch 2 & 3. Excellent video BTW!
I appreciate the kind words bgP! Enoch 2 & 3 would be fun to do! Thanks for your input!
The book of Enoch is the inspired word of God. Anyone that says otherwise is wrong.
Very enjoyable and well researched video! I Loved it!
I appreciate that Nicole & Sarah! Thanks!
Yes, please! More videos on Enoch!
Enoch was heavily taught in the denomination that I grew up in. It scared the crap out of me as a child. It’s definitely not an obscure book; charismatic protestants will use it to affirm certain doctrine in the New Testament. I enjoyed learning about Enoch but I have to say I am happy to be out of the religion I was so heavily influenced by.
Thank you 🌳🌳
Please tell me more about Enoch I would love to read more about him
You got it Janet! Thanks for the comment! Peace to you!
your channel is so underrated, you and religion for breakfast should do a collab!
Thank you so much Leon! I love Religion for Breakfast's channel! It would be an honor to collaborate with him!
Religion for Breakfast and Religiosity Plus would be a great collab! Great suggestion!
You can make one on how the Bible was composed.
Yes I want to know, especially the Sumerian text
More on Enoch please
You got it Gina! Thanks for the comment! Peace to you!
Ty for this video!
My pleasure D J! Thanks for the comment!
Can you do a video on the gospel of Phillip ? I read it but it was super confusing lol thank you!
You do a great job on presenting the history on the book of Enoch. I’m glad as a believer I know the Bible to be true and everything in it. All that should’ve been in it was - because that is how God wanted it. But I did find very interesting the history and thought you did an excellent job! In the first five minutes explaining why individuals might have wrote these stories. I am very impressed on how much history is provided!
Thank you Evelyn! I appreciate the comment!
I'd love to learn more about Enoch, he's a hard character to get good information about.
Thank you for the new episode quite interesting. I would definitely like a future video on Enoch as well as more videos on other non canonical texts
Thanks for your comment Gerald! And thank you for your input! Enoch is such a fascinating biblical character!
@@ReligiosityPlus He really is
I am actually impressed by the book of Enoch, and believe that while it is Not Canonized, it is a real account of Enoch's dealings with those who were the offspring of the fallen, and human women.
If it is mentioned in the New Testament, it's fair game. These are things not to be taken lightly, and a lot of foundational knowledge has to be exercised while piecing things together, and referencing this body of writings. One takeaway that keeps getting my attention is how some of the offspring of the fallen, "Monsters", actually expressed a lot of regret over how things went down. They had genuine fear of their futures, and what punishment was in store for them. They knew God very well.
They understood that their fallen angel fathers were to blame.
They share the same emotions as us.
There are many answers to vexing questions in this book. It's like all of the connective tissue in the Bible comes together right here.
Really being sure as to why the flood had to be, along with other things that get answered as you read..( probably the best thing about the Bible, the more you read the more you learn!)
What's really interesting is how Enoch's writing's explain why the Israelites had to go into the promised land and kill off it's inhabitants. Because the nephilim were still in the land at that time, and they are genetically corrupted, Not because my Father is a genocidal maniac! To this day they inhabit the most powerful positions on the planet; but in the end God Wins!
Regardless of your position, this is definitely worth reading and praying over!
I fully agree, Enoch has many things that explain a lot, not covered, not only the fallen, or why they had to kill all people, mother and children, and all their animals, they were corrupted. Also gives an excellent account on how the Sun, Moon work. Unfortunately it matches up perfectly with a flat earth theory.
Big fan of this channel! Keep it up man!
I really appreciate it! Thanks!
the video is great, thank you
Great video! 1 Enoch is such a fascinating book! I learned a lot from this, thank you!
Thank you Nicole, much appreciated!
Go for it!
Can we get, although not much information is out there, a video of Melchizedek
That is a great suggestion!
We call enoch (idris) in arabic language
You cannot get much more Historical than this Passage out of 'The Secrets of Enoch'...¶...AND those men took me thence, and led me up on to the third heaven, and placed me there; and I looked downwards, and san the produce of these places, such as has never been known for goodness.
2 And I saw all the sweet-flowering trees and beheld their fruits, which were sweet-smelling, and all the foods borne by them bubbling with fragrant exhalation.
3 And in the midst of the trees that of life, in that place whereon the Lord rests, when he goes up into paradise; and this tree is of ineffable goodness and fragrance, and adorned more than every existing thing; and on all sides it is in form gold-looking and vermilion and fire-like and covers all, and it has produce from all fruits.
4 Its root is in the garden at the earth's end.
5 And paradise is between corruptibility and incorruptibility.
6 And two springs come out which send forth honey and milk, and their springs send forth oil and wine, and they separate into four parts, and go round with quiet course, and go down into the PARADISE OF
p. 84
[paragraph continues] EDEN, between corruptibility and in corruptibility.
7 And thence they go forth along the earth, and have a revolution to their circle even as other elements.
8 And here there is no unfruitful tree, and every place is blessed.
9 And there are three hundred angels very bright, who keep the garden, and with incessant sweet singing and never-silent voices serve the Lord throughout all days and hours.
10 And I said: 'How very sweet is this place,' and those men said to me:...
......THIS place, O Enoch, is prepared for the righteous, who endure all manner of offence from those that exasperate their souls, who avert their eyes from iniquity, and make righteous judgement, and give bread to the hungering, and cover the naked with clothing, and raise up the fallen, and help injured orphans, and who walk without fault before the face of the Lord, and serve him alone, and for them is prepared this place for eternal inheritance."

Thank you Bader! Much appreciated!
Thank you!
You are welcome! Thanks for the comment Derek!
So so interesting. I'm wondering if the fallen angel watchers have something to do with all the evil going on right now.
May I get you opinions on a few things and possibly have a discussion with you sir?
Apocalypse is also the name of a place in the Arabic region.
21:46 yes I’m interested
Time? Is that what you call Electric energy?
Enoch didn't die but was translated a long with his entire city and people who were very righteous. There are some details in the book of Moses chapters 6 & 7 You can also find more about Adam in the same book called The Pearl of Great Price. It can be found on the Webb site of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints.
I don’t want to sound ignorant, but if this is “fan fiction,” why is there so much appeal?
comment for the algo
You don’t count 2 Peter along with Jude? It’s an unbelievably clear reference
Could you expand on this? What 2 Peter verse are you referring to?
Are you a theologian? I have questions and do not trust “ religion”. You seem to break things down without spin. Just knowledge.
Hmm. Since he had sons and daughters, I wonder WHO on THIS earth could be his Descendants now🤔🤔
I think theres alot of truths with the book of enoch.
Judaism didn't exist in Enochs times.
👍🏼
Enoch and Elijah are the only ones that have never died. I believe they are the 2 witnesses mentioned in revelations. The antichrist will kill them. Thus fulfilling God's word that "ALL" must die once.
Let me know when you think?
I think it wouldn't be wise to hold your breath waiting for things in The Left Behind series to become real-life.
@@snaptrap5558 Nobody's talking about a left behind series.
@@fredricosanchez9293 But you did, that's something that was said in Tim LaHaye's novels. And Christians love to think about what will happen in the future when these fantastical prophecies staring their figures will unfold.
But do not spend your life anticipating this to come true.
@@snaptrap5558 I just read my Bible. I'm not anticipating anything.
@@snaptrap5558 And what religion are you?
Can you please show and tell me when, where, how, and why, TMH, Ahayah, the LORD of hosts, GOD of ISRAEL called/calls His "chosen" family bloodline of Jacob (Genesis 32:22:32) "O, Jew(ish)", "O, Israeli(s), or even "O, Hebrew", which by-the-way is the "language" spoken by our Israelite ancestors, He named and calls to His people and says, "O, Israel"!! There is not such thing as a "Jew" in scripture. Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and an "Israelite". Jew was the "mocking" name given to TMH's Nation of affluent Negro descendants of Shem, the progenitor of the Negro Nation of Jacob and the Israelites living in the Southern Kingdom of Judah by the surrounding envious, impoverished nations of Edom, Moab, and Ammon, and that was "mistakenly" believed by the Japhethite Israelite identity thieves who came down from the North, and who are still in existence today as "Jews". Israelites are still scattered and waiting to be "gathered" and placed back in our land just as our Father TMH Ahayah, the LORD of hosts, GOD of Israel says he will do. Ref. Genesis 17:7; Deuteronomy 14:2: 1 Peter 2:9; Isaiah 14:1-3; Jeremiah 30:1-4; Amos 3:2; Malachi 3:6; 2 Esdras 6:56; Romans 9:13; Zondervans Bible Dictionary...Noah, Japheth, Shem, and Ham, the world's Nation's progenitors.
I wonder if the sons of God and the Daughters of man are speaking of mating between Homo sapiens and Neanderthal. The offspring would be much stronger and possibly larger. Thus the Nephelium is misshapen, looking like neither.
BCE and CE. Funny, we all know when time was redefined and for who, regardless of your silly altered labels, it cannot be changed. Before Christ and Anno Domini or in the year of our lord
I agree Jeff! I had to use BCE and CE in college and it has become a habit of mine. I have no problem using BC and AD.
BCE and CE are more inclusive and his channel is targeted to viewers with all religious beliefs. Not sure why the label matters if we all know who it refers to.
Having read the comments, there really is a problem here. CE stands for 'common era' but it really is no such thing - it is only the common era for Christian or those who are in the Christian derived culture. Certainly, I am not aware of any other culture agreeing that it should be 'common'. AD and BC are open in being Christian and not implying that other cultures - religious or otherwise - endorse this dating. I think one could argue that it is less inclusive to imply that other cultures accept the 'Christian' timing which is rapidly becoming the norm at the moment.
20’years ago it was only bc or ad I’m past offending people. I say what is and they are free to be offended. Political correctness needs to go away
@@sanjosejeff It has nothing to do with political correctness or being offended. Who is offended? I'm not. And the Religiosity Plus guy commented and said he didn't care either. Nobody's offended. Except for maybe you. Like why do you care if its BCE and CE vs BC and AD? You commented because you were offended.
Grrrrr
Just like "Judaism", stitched together by Japhethites propagating the written Torah, history, and geanealogy of TMH's chosen for Himself from scripture the family "bloodline" of Jacob/Israel (Genesis 35:10) and writing (2 Maccabees 3:48 KJV) themselves into scripture to accommodate, include, and usurp themselves into a culture, heritage, and inheritance, that does not belong to them. Like our Father TMH, Ahayah, the LORD of hosts, GOD of Israel, not God of Jew(s) or God of Israeli(s), doesn't "know" who His "children" are!! You can "fool" man, but you can't "fool" TMH!!
God walked with Enoch and elevated him to Archangel Metatron being one of only two humans elevated the other being Archangel Sandalphon. Apocalypse esoterically means awakening of humanity to reclaim God given Divinity and is happening as we speak. Our God is non judgemental and LOVES ALL His children unconditionally Namaste ❤️🙏🌈💜
Lol! No. If you watched the video, The Book of Enoch is not canon, and basically a fan fiction.
@@arsnotoria3755 Ars did not refer to book as canon merely to give background information on who Enoch is/became 🙏
That’s an occult belief, not a Biblical belief, no one listen to this please
@@arsnotoria3755 Where is the proof that it was written before or after the new testament? Explain why the apostles reference Enoch?
@@junkmail7780 I’ll refer you to Inspiring Philosophies channel. There are many contradictions and errors in the Book of Enoch. They referenced Enoch the person, in the Bible, not the Book. There were also two different Enochs as well. Buddy, if you wanna believe some fan fiction then so be it. More power to ya. I get it, the book is an amazing read, and stirs the imagination, but it is still a work of fiction.
Also, humans do not ever become Angels in the Bible. There is NO reference saying when we die, or if taken to Heaven, we become an Angel. Metatron is also fiction, and his name is never mentioned. There are only two angels that have names. Michael and Gabriel. Even the humanoid Angels of Lot did not give Lot their names. You’re all believing in deception and fiction.
All BS. The book of Enoch would have been lost in the flood.
Which is why he says the book of 1 Enoch is basically just fan fiction. He is literally saying its made up by someone who is pretending to be Enoch.
Enoch was Noah's great grandfather. I think there is very good possibility he took all of the written texts with him in the ark. Whether the full book of Enoch was included we'll never know. The info was definitely passed down for generations.
Or Taken on board of Noah's boat. SMH The truth will come out eventually and we will see who's been lying to the world this whole time.
U r wrong. Advice, come here, Ethiopia, and ask
You are pushing a False Theology.
The book of Enoch has no value or say in Hebrew or Christian Bible Teachings.
It is also a very good possibly it was a work of fiction. Much like a Steven King Book of today. Entertainment probably a very popular one. Yes these people way back then HAD ENTERTAINMENT!!!
They did not sit around all the time praying to Heven. They Worked very hard an had Relaxing times Games, Books an Music, Plays.
Telling Theological Fables about the Book of Enoch. Is a bad idea there are far to many of us Biblical Theologians out here for that to fly
😳Careful one thing we Theologians really know an Fully understand is Gods Warth. Far more Evidence of THAT THAN THE BOOK OF Enoch.
He didn't push any theology. He was just explaining what the book of 1 Enoch is. The book of Jude in the New Testament quotes 1 Enoch directly, btw.
@@thereligionfanatic3861 I will start by saying I dont Debate Bible.
As for Theology , Theological or Theologians. By your response you dont have a Clear Knowledge of the term.
This podcast started with, the Book of Enoch. Is used widely an has cast a great Deal of knowledge for Biblical Teachings. That is totaly False. It is almost never Spoken of an if it is. It's only when discussing those trying to use it as Spiritual Guidance. It did NOT make the Hebrew Cannon. It did Not make the Protestant Cannon. There is no reference in Jude to Enoch any similarities to the Book of Enoch.
Carry no Validation.
The Dead Sea Scrolls there is no Enoch or even scraps there of. All the Old Testament as we have it is account for Except Esther. This makes think wonder Why.
🤔 Hmmm when an individual runs with any ideas Directly impacting Biblical Knowledge. It falls under Theology.
I look forward to your Reply.
This conversation is Not Stimulating in any Way. But for the Sake of your Education I'll Try.
🙏 Eternal Salvation through Christ Amen
@@sirenscalllntothedeep6306 Jude, in the New Testament, does quote 1 Enoch. It's clear as day. And 1 Enoch is found in the Dead Sea Scrolls. He even shows proof with references in the video. I don't have to prove it to you, just look it up. I'm a Christian by the way. I just don't see what's wrong with learning more about books that didn't make it into the canon. I can learn about something without believing it's true.
@@thereligionfanatic3861 I go back to the beginning. As I stated the Book of Enoch has in no way been used to help in Biblical learning.
Or is it used as tool in in Education of Biblical Teachings.
As for Jude it's a small Book in the New Testament. A very quick read. It mentions nothing pertaining to Enoch. As for the Dead Sea Scrolls it must be a Very recent Development. How much of Enoch was found.
Why your so fanatic about it.
I have no idea.
😏 has no baring on Salvation or History of Hebrew Nation .
@@sirenscalllntothedeep6306 Jude 1:14-15. do a simple google search and you will see Jude in the New Testament does mention Enoch and quotes from the book of Enoch. Also, did you watch the video that you are commenting on? He talks about "How many" Dead Sea Scrolls mention Enoch. Just watch the video.
