This ancient book is so controversial that it was banned from the Bible:
The Book Of Enoch.
For centuries, religious leaders kept it hidden from the public...
Why?
The secrets inside challenged everything they taught.
Here's the fascinating truth behind the Book of Enoch:
1. The Hidden Text
Most people don't know:
This book was written by Enoch, Noah's great-grandfather.
While it was removed from most Bibles...
The Ethiopian Orthodox Church never gave it up.
They've preserved it as sacred scripture for over 2,000 years.
What did they see that others feared?
2. Angels & Giants
The book tells an incredible story:
A group of angels called the Watchers came to Earth.
What happened next shocked religious leaders:
• They mated with human women
• Created a race of giants (the Nephilim)
• Taught humans forbidden knowledge
This challenged everything people believed about divine beings.
3. The Forbidden Knowledge
Here's where it gets fascinating...
The Watchers didn't just create giants.
They taught humans secrets like:
• Magical practices
• Advanced metalworking
• Cosmetics & beauty arts
• Astronomical knowledge
Religious authorities saw this as dangerous:
It suggested divine knowledge wasn't meant to be controlled.
4. The Dark Side
The Book of Giants portion tells an even darker tale:
The Nephilim became violent & destructive.
It describes them as:
• Consuming humans
• Destroying the earth
• Spreading corruption
This section reads like a warning:
About the dangers of unchecked power & forbidden knowledge.
5. Visions of the Future
Enoch 85-90 contains mysterious prophecies:
• Symbolic visions of animals
• Predictions of future events
• Signs of coming judgment
Some believed these predicted:
• The coming of a messiah
• Humanity's final destiny
• Earth's transformation
These visions still spark debate today.
6. Heaven & Hell Revealed
Enoch claimed he traveled through multiple heavens.
What he saw was mindblowing:
• Hierarchy of angels
• Fate of righteous souls
• Punishment of the wicked
• Detailed maps of celestial realms
His vivid descriptions influenced ideas about the afterlife for centuries.
7. Why They Banned It
The book was too controversial:
• Revealed "forbidden" knowledge
• Contained strange prophecies
• Challenged official doctrine
• Questioned angel nature
Early Church leaders likely feared its potential to create theological chaos.
8. Its Modern Impact
Despite being banned, its influence is everywhere:
• Modern spiritual movements
• Supernatural research
• Christian mysticism
• Gnostic teachings
• Angel mythology
The book keeps resurfacing throughout history.
9. The Big Questions
The Book of Enoch raises uncomfortable questions:
• Why was this knowledge forbidden?
• What really happened to the Watchers?
• Are these just stories or hidden history?
• Why do similar tales appear worldwide?
Some secrets are still debated today.
Here's what fascinates me:
A book this controversial doesn't just disappear.
It survives because it touches something deep in our search for truth.
