1 Enoch as Christian Scripture

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“This study on 1 Enoch by Dr. Bruk Ayele Asale is of particular importance because, as an Ethiopian scholar, he is particularly attentive to the Ethiopian appropriation of this work. The New Testament quotes it as Scripture and several parts of it have been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, but the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahǝdo Church is the only present-day context in which the book is still ‘alive’ and part of the canon.”
