Why The Book of Enoch Was Banned From The Bible
...known as the Bible, decided not to included Enoch for a variety of reasons.
While some of the decisions were made at the councils of Nicea and Laodekia,
others were made by Popes and Rabbis. Other times the decision was made by
those doing the translation work or the editor.
When you do a comprehensive, historical search for the truth as to why Enoch
was banned from the Bible you find, as in many cases, a group or person who
either agrees or disagrees with the other.
Although there were a handful of translations that predated the King James
Version of the Bible, it was the KJV that solidified the 66 books of the canon
which were accepted by the Protestant Church. Obviously Enoch was not
included.
And even though the Catholic Bible contains additional books such as Tobit,
Wisdom and Maccabees 1 and 2, they also chose not to include Enoch.
What's interesting is how often the Book of Enoch was referenced and relied
upon by both the Messiah and the Apostles. It was also directly quoted by Jude.
...and CHANOK (Enoch) also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these,
saying, "Behold, YAHUAH comes with ten thousands of His qodeshim (saints),
yo execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are wicked among them
of all their wicked deeds which they have wickedly committed, and of all their
hard speeches, which wicked sinners have spoken against him."
In CHANOK (Enoch) 2:1 (1:9 in some translations), when reading it from there,
you can see clearly that Jude was indeed quoting from Enoch.
The above quotes are from a translation of the scriptures called the eth CEPHER
(divine book) which includes Enoch and other important books that were not
included in the 66 books of the canon.
Have you ever read the Book of Yashar (Jasher)? The story of CHANOK is
described with detailed clarity. What's interesting about this is that...
1.) CHANOK was a righteous man who was taken by YAHUAH, he didn't die.
Why would the book of righteous man like CHANOK be banned or removed?
2.) Why was a book (YASHAR) that was referred to multiple times, in the 66
books of the canon, removed as well? It's true! The Book of YASHAR was
mentioned by name in both Joshua 10:13 and 2 Samuel 1:18.
As a child of YAHUAH, at this point in history, it's very clear that we are living
during times that live up the description given to us as “the last days”.
When we overlay prophecy with history you can clearly see how the enemy has
infiltrated the church. Much of that has been accomplished through...
As you begin to study books like Enoch, Jubilees and Jasher you'll discover what
so many of us already have...
These books give us a more clear picture that corresponds perfectly to the the
books included within the 66 of the Protestant canon.
The challenge is that it's hard to find (even in most of the newer, restored name
texts) a Bible that includes these books and more.
About two years ago, while looking for Scriptures that included the restored
names of the Father and the Son, I did find one that includes the three books
mentioned above, and more... the eth CEPHER.
It's also available through App Store and Google Play if you have either of these
smart phones.
Shalom!
