Enoch’s Prophecy: The Lord Comes with His Holy Myriads

1 Enoch opens with the Lord coming with myriads of holy ones to judge the ungodly—the oracle Jude explicitly attributes to Enoch.

PRIMARY PROPHECY

Jude 1:14–15
¹⁴And Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord cometh with ten thousands of his saints,
¹⁵To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him.
Jude 1:14–15 · KJV
