@Frondeur @Xenophon Isn't Jesus being conflated with Michael a Mormon thing? -

@Xenophon That one potentially legitimate one book within Enoch I recently learned is the book of watchers... I ran into some internet guy use it and Jude's apparent reference to it to argue against Jesus being Michael. The latter being a position I think I have seen some people on here (on here) make...maybe you??? -

@Xenophon I guess that's kind of two hellthreads in one...is Jesus Michael and how should apocrypha be used to support arguments in general... -

so my understanding of Enoch is that it there was definitely a legitimate version, my opinion based off the fact a fully intact copy was found in the DSS scrolls but was sold to a private buyer and never copied or revealed to the world.
But the version we have, is actually like 4-5 different books written at different times. Of them the first 1 seems to be the most/only possibly real? But that's also tough because it could just be theyve been corrupted over time and we can't really know. -

But if you'd like to discuss some of it, I'm up for it. -
