Synopsis
What should Christians do with the Book of Enoch?
The Book of Enoch is strange, fascinating, ancient, and often misunderstood. It talks about fallen angels, the Watchers, the Nephilim, heavenly visions, divine judgment, and the mysterious “Son of Man.” It influenced Jewish thought, appears in the background of the New Testament world, and is even quoted in the book of Jude.
But is it Scripture?
In Angels, Giants, and the Bible, Charles Rushing offers a clear, readable, and biblically grounded guide to the ancient Book of Enoch. Written from an evangelical Christian perspective, this book helps readers understand what Enoch says, why it mattered in Second Temple Judaism, how it connects to passages like Genesis 6 and Jude 14–15, and why the historic church did not include it in the biblical canon.
With pastoral clarity, scholarly care, and a little well-placed humor, this book walks through the major sections of 1 Enoch: the Book of the Watchers, the Book of Parables, the Astronomical Book, the Dream Visions, and the Epistle of Enoch. Along the way, readers will explore fallen angels, Nephilim traditions, ancient Jewish apocalyptic hope, messianic expectation, resurrection, judgment, and the biblical doctrine of Scripture.
This is not a sensational conspiracy book. It is not an attempt to add Enoch to the Bible. It is a Christian guide for thoughtful readers who want to understand ancient biblical background while keeping Christ, Scripture, and the gospel at the center.
If you have ever wondered why Jude quotes Enoch, what the Bible says about the Nephilim, how ancient Jews thought about angels and judgment, or why Christians should read Enoch with both curiosity and caution, this book is for you.
Read Angels, Giants, and the Bible and discover how an ancient book can illuminate the world of the Bible—without replacing the Bible.
