Bible Note: BradK It isn't a question of IF Jude is quoting Enoch, but why. It is a direct quote from Enoch 1:9.

See: http://www.heaven.net.nz/writings/thebookofenoch.htm for an on-line translation of the Book of Enoch. Below is a copy of Book of Enoch 1:9 "And behold! He cometh with ten thousands of His holy ones To execute judgement upon all, And to destroy all the ungodly: And to convict all flesh Of all the works of their ungodliness which they have ungodly committed, And of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him."
