Hi proteus,

the reason Enoch is excluded is because it goes into great detail about the fallen angels, in judaism they believe Satan is perfect and the most wonderful of the angels, it offends them that Satan could of fallen, they say God doeth the good and the evil and protect satan... also the Book of Enoch was lost untill the late 1700s, when the KJV was writen in 1611 they did not even have Enoch to consider, a copy of the Book of Enoch was found in the Qumran caves (part of the dead sea scrolls)... the dead sea scrolls where descovered in a period of time we call a Tetrad (the sun moon and start are to be as signs) and withing the same tetrad was Israel's "Six day war".

I think your misunderstand the Jewish view of HaSatan. No one said that "the Accuser" is perfect or that he is "the most wonderful of the angels." We simply point out that he is doing his job in testing mankind. There is no free will without the inclination to do wrong. However, many have said that HaSatan has been overzealous in his task. Only God is perfect.
