Well. Judes prophecy was taken from the book of Enoch. The same book found intact by Charles Bruce in 1800's Ethiopia.

This is true. My statement only makes reference to the fact that this was also considered Hebrew tradition and Jude may not have been quoting a book that he carried around with him. I'm not arguing your point. Other writings are quoted as well...."Jasher"[Joshua 10:13] & [2 Samuel 1:18].

Of course he didn't have a book he carried around. But 11 copies were found in the dead sea scrolls that matched what was found in ethiopia in 4 of the 5 sections. I'm sure these scrolls were read in essene circles. This book also describes chasms such as the one Jesus described when speaking of Abrahams bossom. Jude treated it as scripture.
