Enoch 48:10b "And there shall be no one to take them with his hands and raise them: For they have denied the Lord of Spirits and His Anointed. The name of the Lord of Spirits be blessed."
We need the Book of Enoch prophecies because although we have similar prophetic visions of the Son of Man seen by Daniel recorded in the Book of Daniel it does not have the detailed descriptions of the Son of Man given in Enoch's prophecies. Most of all Daniel does not link the Son of Man with being God's Anointed like Enoch does so from Enoch we have the clarity that the Son of Man "who is born unto righteousness" (70:14) is the Elect One, chosen by God and anointed by God (The Lord of Spirits) and this identifies Him as the Christ, the Messiah, the Anointed One.
It has to be a man to whom God gives His anointing. The Christ must do anointed things showing all the authority of God but must also bear with human weakness. This was always the plan foreseen by God. His Son would be central to His saving grace. God saves - this name was always going to be bourne by His Son. This human eternal future Jesus would ever have once risen from the dead would be there in all His past showing God's foreknowledge and predestining sovereignty. He was always the Son of Man and will be always and "they will see the Son of Man coming with the clouds of Heaven".
