Commentary on the
Book of Enoch, Chapter 14:1-7.

Text

His Announcement to Them of Their First and Final Doom
14:1 The book of the words of righteousness, and of the reprimand of the eternal Watchers in
          accordance with the command of the Holy Great One in that vision.
14:2  I saw in my sleep what I will now say with a tongue of flesh and with the breath of my
          mouth: which the Great One has given to men to converse therewith and understand with
          the heart.
14:3  As He has created and given to man the power of understanding the word of wisdom, so
          hath He created me also and given me the power of reprimanding the Watchers, the
          children of heaven.
14:4  I wrote out your petition, and in my vision it appeared thus, that your petition will not
          be granted unto you throughout all the days of eternity, and that judgment has been
          finally passed upon you: yea your petition will not be granted unto you.
14:5  And from henceforth you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity, and in bonds of
          the earth the decree has gone forth to bind you for all the days of the world.
14:6  And that previously you shall have seen the destruction of your beloved sons and ye shall
          have no pleasure in them, but they shall fall before you by the sword.
14:7  And your petition on their behalf shall not be granted, nor yet on your own: even though
          you weep and pray and speak all the words contained in the writing which I have written.
Commentary

14:4-7
The decision and sentence which Enoch passes on the these fallen angels clearly can never be revoked. Yehuveh has given them His “final answer.” Why? Because the choices of rebellion which these Watchers made, in the face of all that they knew of Yehuveh and His goodness, were choices which would never be fully reversed in them. Yehuveh knew that. 
        It is as
“Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot serve Yehuveh: for He is an holy Elohim; He is a jealous Elohim; He will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins. If ye forsake Yehuveh, and serve strange Elohims, then He will turn and do you hurt, and consume you, after that He hath done you good.” Joshua 24:19-20.
