Timothy Alberino is Wrong about the Son of Man in the Book of Enoch
Timothy Alberino claims that the “Son of Man” passages in the Book of Enoch are prophecies about Jesus and takes this as proof that the Book of Enoch is divinely inspired. However, there is a major problem with that idea: the Book of Enoch explicitly identifies Enoch himself—not Jesus—as the Son of Man, which directly contradicts the New Testament.
The Son of Man in the Book of Enoch
Some confusion surrounds the Messiah figure of 1 Enoch, particularly in 1 Enoch 71:14 when this figure's identity is revealed. This teaching argues in favor of the plain reading of 1 Enoch 71:14 that identifies the patriarch Enoch as this figure.
Zach Bauer is wrong about 1 Enoch 71:14 and the “Son of Man”
In defense of his view that the Book of Enoch is "inspired Scripture," Zach Bauer claims that the patriarch Enoch is NOT identified as the Son of Man in 1 Enoch 71:14. He says that among "scholars worldwide," nobody says that the Book of Enoch identifies Enoch as a Messiah figure. In this video, I show how Zach's claim is demonstrably false and that scholars who study the Book of Enoch DO say precisely that.
