04 Jun 2025

Description

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we tackle one of the most intriguing questions about the Bible’s development: If the disciples and early Christians referenced the Book of Enoch, why isn’t it part of the biblical canon? We explore the Church’s criteria for canonization, Enoch’s influence, and why it ultimately didn’t make the cut.
