A century ago, before the discovery of Dead Sea Scrolls, scholars were calling the Book of Enoch ‘pseudepigraphal’. Fake. There is historic, sectarian reason for that. But if the Book of Enoch was indeed ‘pseudepigraphal’ then its content is invalidated too. Sayings of Jesus relying on it would be invalidated. This would tend to invalidate all that Jesus taught, bringing Jesus’ judgment into question. The epistle of Jude would be invalidated too because it states categorically that a quotation from Enoch chapter 1 is the prophetic word of Enoch himself, the seventh from Adam, i.e. the historical Enoch. That would invalidate those who included Jude in the Bible. That would in turn invalidate their inclusion of other books in the Bible.
