No, it is you who are wrong. Hebrews does NOT say that Enoch died. On the
contrary: Hebrews even says that Enoch "did not taste death" (Heb
11:5). Recall
the verse:

   By faith Enoch was taken up SO THAT HE SHOULD NOT SEE DEATH; and
   he was not found, because God had taken him.
   Now before he was taken he was attested as having
   pleased God.  (Heb 11:5 RSVA)

So no, Enoch never died.
