Bible Note: MJH, I don't believe there's any definitive support that Jude is quoting from the "Book of Enoch" in 1:14. He may have been aware of traditions from extrabiblical sources. What we know of Enoch from scripture is found in Gen. 5, Hebrews 11 and Jude. C.H. Spurgeon says of these passages : "THE three passages of Scripture which I have read are all the authentic information we have concerning Enoch, and it would be idle to supplement it with the fictions of ancient commentators."
