Why do other books also claim that Enoch saw the return of Zion from Heaven?

Moses 7:63 reads:

And the Lord said unto Enoch: Then shalt thou and all thy city meet them there, and we will receive them into our bosom, and they shall see us; and we will fall upon their necks, and they shall fall upon our necks, and we will kiss each other;

This echoes 1 Enoch 39:1 which reads:

And it shall come to pass in those days that the elect and holy children will descend from the high heavens, and their seed will become one with the children of men.

Why does the Book of Moses agree with other texts like this?
