Why is it important that Enoch pleased God?

Answered in 1 source

Enoch's ability to please God highlights the necessity of faith for righteousness.

Enoch is noted for having pleased God, which is crucial in understanding the biblical principle of righteousness by faith. In Hebrews 11:6, the scripture teaches that it is impossible to please God without faith. Enoch's faith and obedience set a precedent for all believers, showcasing that true fellowship with God comes through faith. Just as Enoch pleased God through his faith, Jesus Christ ultimately fulfilled this requirement by accomplishing the redemptive will of God, serving as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. This bond of faith is what allows followers of Christ to be seen as pleasing in the sight of God.
