The Legends of History | Why Was The Book of Enoch Banned? @thelegendsofhistory | Uploaded 1 day ago | Updated 11 hours ago
To start off, to say the Book of Enoch was banned from the bible isnt entirely accurate. It wasnt so much banned as it was never really considered for inclusion in the recognised canon of the Hebrew bible.
You see, one of the most standout things about the Book of Enoch is its namesake - Enoch - and how the book is attributed to a character that isnt widely recognised. In order to really canonize a piece of ancient literature, it would need to have direct connection to a revered figure or prophet and because Enoch isnt traditionally thought of in this light, the text automatically lost a lot of its weight when church elders were first putting the bible together. Canonical books typically claim authorship by well-established prophets, patriarchs, or apostles who had what was believed to be direct connection to God. The attribution to Enoch, a figure with minimal scriptural presence, might have posed as a challenge to the conventional norms of canonical authorship.
