I came to the same conclusion after reading the apocrypha, that they took out the so called lost books to confuse and for people to seek interpretation.
"Enoch is too fantastical. Too apocalyptic. Not reliable. The councils examined it and determined it did not belong." Could you please give a single instance where this statement is documented in any council? I must be overlooking something.
I disagree that without 1 Enoch a fallen angel or supernatural rebellion interpretation for Sons of God in Genesis 6 is ambiguous or imposes non textually supported interpretations into the text. If this angelic view challenges you, I recommend both The Unseen Realm (more academic text) or Supernatural (shortened version) both written by biblical and Hebrew scholar Dr. Michael Heiser. Also the Unseen Battle by Dr. Muddamalle. All three are excellent and based on requirement of letting the text alone speak.
Revelation 20, most assuming about 5000 yrs later, some 7000 or longer. So we're getting into the thick of it, many thinking we're in Satan's little season. Trib seems very soon. The Xstein class is basically using Rev as a script while Satan has his own chosen in place. They just need their 3rd temple for the AC to declare godhood from. Beware "disclosure". Praise Jesus 👏
Rev 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
Hebrews 13:2 "Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."
Like Lot except he knew better and so did the Sodomites who wanted to rape them. Thats a whole other discussion.
So we do know actually. They took the form of men when they wished as Enoch states. It was not so immaculate conception, and why Jesus had to be born that way to show who the Real Son of God was in the faces of the little sun/sons of the "gods".
There's an element no one talks about. Praise the Son, Holy Jesus.
Indeed, the evidence is compelling that Enoch was part of scripture and discarded during a period of ignorance. The re-revealing of the book is a mystery that is telling us something very important for our current times. It isn't an accidental discovery and was preserved beyond those who sought its destruction.
This suggests spiritual intervention, and it is all the more critical to discern the "why." And why now?
Perhaps the ‘angels’ as ‘children of heaven’ means they ‘came from the heavens’, or the sky. Not ethereal, but extraterrestrial beings, taller than and more advanced than earthlings. So they passed on their knowledge and mated with the ‘daughters of man’, who were of smaller stature so their offspring appeared as ‘giants’. If everyone in your tribe is 5’ and you meet others over 6’, they would seem like giants. Just a thought. 🧐

It means it scares us!

“bind them fast for seventy generations in the valleys of the earth.” So what happens after 70 generations? They are freed?
Revelation 9: 1-12
So they were dragons?
It doesn’t say they were released from the pit, but locusts were. What about the fallen angels?

What is the best translation of the Ethiopian bible and where can it be purchased?
Possibly! But not as a human fantasy described.
