Come, let us reason of Enoch of old

Rafa Wrote:What Jude is quoting might not even be Enoch, how do you know Enoch is not quoting something else ? Was not the lines in question Jude quoted in the ascension of Moses as well ? If we found this book should it be in the canon ? Obviously not no ? Just because Jude quotes it means nothing. St. Paul quoted Menander and Epictetus to his audience does not mean they should be in the canon obviously.


Paul saying "Even one of your own said..." is NOT the same as directly word for word quoting scripture, not only by the direct name of the prophet, but an almost verbatim prophechy. By pointing out that he was quoting from somebody belonging to the pagans, he was already confirming that it wasnt scripture.

And speaking of Paul, why would he in 1 Corinthians warn women to cover their heads during prayer, BECAUSE OF THE ANGELS? What Christian can answer that, apart from using the account in Enoch/Genesis?

Remember, we dont battle against flesh and blood, but powers and principalities.
