Enoch as an individual is certainly mentioned a number of times, mostly in Genesis, though Heb 11:5 is certainly inteteresting and Jude 14 contains a prophesy from Enoch, but the individual is not identical with a book attributed to him. He also crops up a few times in Sirach. That said, my gut says the work would likely have gnostic tendancies—but it would still be interesting to see it discussed.

I don’t recall how many mentions are of Enoch the man vs the book.

Thx.

Have you down to ping.

Now, off to bed.

Sleepier by the min.
