Enoch

One in Messiah Congregation

Pseudepigrapha : Spurious writings, especially writings falsely attributed to biblical characters or times. A body of texts written between 200 B.C. and A.D. 200 and spuriously ascribed to various prophets and kings of Hebrew Scriptures. The Book of Enoch is one of these books.

Apocryphal: Of questionable authorship or authenticity. Erroneous; fictitious, Not canonical. Hence: Of doubtful authority; equivocal; mythic; fictitious; spurious; false.

Before you go on to the rest of the reading, digest these two words.

The Book of Enoch: a probable date of this writing was between 150-80 B.C. Fragments of the Book of Enoch have been found among the Dead Sea scrolls. If this date is accurate, obviously the Book of Enoch was not written by the real Enoch who lived before the flood. So who wrote this book which is not in our Scriptures? Only God knows...

Num.13[ 22] And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

[33] And there we saw the giants, נְּפִלִים the sons of Anak, which come of the giants נְּפִלִים: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.

These scriptures say these "giants" were sons on Anak, not angels.

If the Nephilim are a race of giants produced by the marriage between some angels and women, as stated in the Book of Enoch, before the flood, how could the descendants of Anak be the Nephilim also as stated in Num.13:33, if they all were killed in the flood? O bviously different giants.

( Yeshua said angels are not given in marriage!! Mark.12 [25] For when they shall rise from the dead, they neither marry, nor are given in marriage; but are as the angels which are in heaven. Matt.22[ 30] For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. )

Wouldn't the Nephilim, in Gen. 6:4 have been destroyed in the flood along with all life? Only Noah and his family, 8 people got on the ark. It seems obvious that the book Enoch is made up.

Goliath was a a giant like the descendants of Anak. The Nephilim were a race of giants, as there were many giants!

-----------------------

The same Hebrew word , "Nephilim", for giants is used in these 2 scriptures below:

Gen.6[ 4] There were giants נְּפִלִים in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. ( These giants died in the flood. )

different giants:

Num.13[ 22] And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)

This scriptures above, I believe to mean is the seed of God got mingled withe the seed of satan:

Gen.3[ 15] And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed ;

These scriptures say these "giants" were sons on Anak, not angels.

^Deut.1 ^[²⁸ ^{] Whither shall we go up? our brethren have discouraged our
heart, saying, The}^{people is greater and
taller than we}^{; the cities are great and

^[²⁰ ^{] (That also was accounted} ^{a land of giants}^{: giants
dwelt therein in old time; and the Ammonites call them} ^Zamzummims;[²¹^{] A people great, and many,} ^{and tall, as the Anakims} ^{; but the LORD destroyed them before them; and they succeeded
them, and dwelt in their stead:}

^Deut.9 ^[² ^{] A people great and}^{tall,
the children of the Anakims}^{, whom thou knowest,
and of whom thou hast heard say, Who can stand before the} ^{children of Anak}^!

^Josh.11 ^[²¹ ^{] And at that time came Joshua, and cut off the} ^Anakims^{from
the mountains, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the mountains
of Judah, and from all the mountains of Israel: Joshua destroyed them utterly
with their cities.}

^[²² ^{] There was none of the} ^Anak^{ims left in the land of the
children of Israel: only in Gaza, in Gath, and in Ashdod, there remained.}

^Josh.14 ^[¹² ^{] Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the LORD spake
in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the} ^Anakims^{were there,
and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the LORD will be with me,
then I shall be able to drive them out, as the LORD said.}

^[¹⁵ ^{] And the name of Hebron before was Kirjath-arba;
which Arba was a great man among the}^Anakims.^{And the land had rest from war.}

^Josh.15 ^[¹³ ^{] And unto Caleb the son of Jephunneh he gave a part among
the children of Judah, according to the commandment of the LORD to Joshua,
even the city of Arba the father of}^Anak^{, which city is Hebron.}

^[¹⁴ ^{] And Caleb drove thence the three} ^{sons of Anak}^{, Sheshai,
and Ahiman, and Talmai, the children of}^Anak^.

^Josh.21 ^[¹¹ ^{] And}^{they gave them the
city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron} ^{, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof

expelled thence the}^{three sons of Anak.}

^Deut.3 ^[¹¹ ^{] For only}^{Og king of Bashan
remained of the remnant of giants}^{; behold,
his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of
Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it,
after the cubit of a man.}

^[¹³ ^{] And the rest of Gilead, and all Bashan, being the
kingdom of Og, gave I unto the half tribe of Manasseh; all the region of Argob,
with all Bashan, which was called the}^{land
of giants.}

^Josh.12 ^[⁴ ^{] And the coast of}^{Og king

which is at the end of the valley of the}^giants^northward:

^Josh.17 ^[¹⁵ ^{] And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then
get thee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land
of the Perizzites}^{and of the giants}^{, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.}

^Josh.18 ^[¹⁶ ^{] And the border came down to the end of the mountain that

^Job.38 ^[⁷ ^{] When the morning stars sang together, and all the}^{sons of God} ^{shouted for joy?}

You know, the words, sons of God here, no one knows exactly what is being referenced here. We do know Yeshua said that angeles are not given in marraige. When you are married , you have sex, angels don't. If angels were have sex with people then, are they doing the same up till today? This is Sci-Fi, lol.......This false doctrine comes from the book of Enoch which is Pseudepigrapha.

Again, Pseudepigrapha: Spurious writings, especially writings falsely attributed to biblical characters or times. A body of texts written between 200 B.C. and A.D. 200 and spuriously ascribed to various prophets and kings of Hebrew Scriptures.

Just a thought,

Job.38[7] When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Eph.1[4] According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

This is God's domain, He knows us before the foundations of the world, all the people from the beginning to the future end, wow, what a thought!

^John.1 ^[¹² ^]^{But as many as received
him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe
on his name}^:

^Rom.8 ^[^{14] For as many as are
led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.}

^[¹⁹ ^{] For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth
for the manifestation of the}^{sons of God}^.

^Phil.2 ^[¹⁵ ^]^{That ye may be blameless
and harmless, the sons of God,}^{without rebuke,
in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights
in the world;}

^1John.3 ^[¹ ^{] Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon
us, that we should be called the}^{sons of
God}^{: therefore the world knoweth us not,
because it knew him not. [}² ^{] Beloved,}^{now are
we the sons of God,}^{and it doth not yet
appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be
like him; for we shall see him as he is.}
