why did Jude perceive quoting of the book of Enoch?
First off Jude would not have known of its false claims or if Enoch even wrote it. The Book of Enoch was a verbal tradition written done by someone other than Enoch. That is a big problem. Clearly, Jude is quoting Enoch (if he is at all) to address those in verse:4
"who For certain men have crept in unnoticed, long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men,(not angels) who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ."
Also, Jude addresses Apostasy in vers 5-8
But I want to remind you, though you once knew this, (what did they once know?) that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.
:6
And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode,(Heaven) He(GOD) has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;
:7
as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities around them in a similar manner to these, having given themselves over to sexual immorality
Note: the context herein not of Angels but of men sinning sexually The word "AS" doesn't translate to THEM doing. Angels sinned and AS so did men at Sodom were judged.
and gone after strange flesh, (man is doing this not angels) are set forth as an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
Sodom and Gomorrah suffered fire judgment, not angels. The flood did not kill angels it killed men and anminals
Continuing :
:8
Likewise, also these dreamers defile the flesh, reject authority, and speak evil of dignitaries. (Men did this.)
There was betrayal in Heaven of angels to God as the same as a man did to God both will be judged and suffer the same fate.
Jude spoke out about these perceived tales and he did not reinforce them the idea of Angels having sex, instead, Jude spoke a more
powerful message :
There is nothing edifying in the book of Enoch if the only thing those who read it see sex with angels.
Jude and Enoch could not be any further apart from what the Holy Spirit gave to Jude to says and what writer of Enoch said that has some truth mixed with errors, The Holy Spirit doesn't make errors

- Old and New Apostates that of angels and of men
- The judgment of betrayal of men and angels who do so.
- Apostates Predicted verse 16-19
- Maintain Your Life with God
- All Glory to God
