The Book of Enoch

As an ancient Jewish religious work attributed to Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah, this text dates back to approximately 300 BC and significantly influenced the authors of the New Testament. Quoted in the Epistle of Jude, it was also valued by the community behind the Dead Sea Scrolls. While some churches include it in their canon, others regard it as non-canonical yet historically and theologically important. This work serves as a vital resource for researchers and students exploring the cultural and historical context of early Christianity.
