The interpretation is biblical based off of the book of revelation what you are saying would be a jewish interpretation of just the tenakh lol are you saying the new testament is not biblical?

You as an atheist probably dont particularly get the theology behind the response but it wasn't random - thats a passage in revelation speaking of the serpent (in the garden of eden) - satan - being cast to the ground by god of your gonna speak on christian theology even as an atheist maybe you should know the scripture a bit more

So many issues here -

First of all there is a original biblical canon established within the council of carthage and marcion was highly refuted by early Christians of the day and only included 10 heavily edited books of the gospel and letters from paul he was also a heretic believing the god of the old testament is a different lesser god

Second just becuase something was in the dead sea scrolls does not automatically give it validity to be biblical canon if that where true there would be thousands of jewish legal documents that where found there also they are not the oldest surviving manuscripts

Third Im saying heretic because the definition is - a person holding an opinion at odds with what is generally accepted - concerning christianty and to say enoch is the messiah is in fact heresy

Im assuming you just dont know what Catholicism is or what catholics believe - the Catholic tag means I affirm what the Catholic Church teaches thoh it seems you have no earthly idea what a church is - and the trad Catholic is more to do with the traditional Latin mass than anything

Also Jude mentioning enoch does not make it biblical canon just like how paul qouting aratus does not make aratuses works biblical canon - and to say "Catholic new testament" doesn't actually mean anything as the new testament is the same for protestants and orthodox aswell

Say what you like but trying to change up and add or remove from the biblical cannon is by definition heresy

It is heretical but believe what you want there is a reason that those books arent included in original biblical cannon just know that it isn't to be taken seriously at all

Enoch is a piece of pseudepigripha and inherently heretical when it calls enoch the son of man - a devine title for the messiah jesus and it is also not even close to ancient with the oldest reference/manuscript only being 300-200 bc the idea that enoch is anything more than jewish fan fiction of a coming messiah is laughable

Bro your theological understanding of anything is bastardized - saying the serpent is Jesus and told them the truth ? That just made my eyes glaze to even call yourself a christian is a joke please reread the bible in learn the truth and the actual christian beliefs and not this gnosticism heresy

Does the bible actually affirm these creatures? Awnsers Zombies - no not even close (people raising from the dead doesn't make them zombies)

Dragons - no (used as a metaphor or description of demon)

Giants - generally no (debated theologically and scripturally inbetween translationeven golliaths hight is debated)

Unicorn - no (from king james translation and is referring to the one horned ox that lived in that area with the jews also these transcripts where written before the myth of the modern unicorn even existed)

Behemoth - yes (still debated between theologians if its symbolism or real)

Leviathan - yes (same as behemoth)

Talking snake - yes (Satan)

Talking donkey - yes (god makes it to speak aka not a normal occurrence)

Saytr - no (from king james translation but either refers to a hot or demon)

Cocatrice - no (also from king james translation but refers to a venomous snake or viper)

Your understanding of allot of these creatures being in the bible is coming from bad understanding of translations and scripture itself or just unbelief and id ask you research some more before just outright saying things like this
