JUDE + +St. Jude, who wrote this Epistle, was one of the twelve Apostles and +brother to St. James the Less. The time it was written is uncertain: +only it may be inferred from verse 17 that few or none of the Apostles +were then living, except St. John. He inveighs against the heresies and +wicked practices of the Simonians, Nicolaites, and Gnostics, etc., +describing them and their leaders by strong epithets and similes, He +exhorts the faithful to contend earnestly for the faith first delivered +to them and to beware of heretics. + + +Jude Chapter 1 + +He exhorts them to stand to the faith first delivered to them and to +beware of heretics. + +1:1. Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James: to them +that are beloved in God the Father and preserved in Jesus Christ and +called. + +1:2. Mercy unto you and peace: and charity be fulfilled. + +1:3. Dearly beloved, taking all care to write unto you concerning your +common salvation, I was under a necessity to write unto you: to beseech +you to contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints. + +1:4. For certain men are secretly entered in (who were written of long +ago unto this judgment), ungodly men, turning the grace of our Lord God +into riotousness and denying the only sovereign Ruler and our Lord Jesus +Christ. + +1:5. I will therefore admonish you, though ye once knew all things, that +Jesus, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, did afterwards +destroy them that believed not. + +1:6. And the angels who kept not their principality but forsook their +own habitation, he hath reserved under darkness in everlasting chains, +unto the judgment of the great day. + +Principality... That is, the state in which they were first created, +their original dignity. + +1:7. As Sodom and Gomorrha and the neighbouring cities, in like manner, +having given themselves to fornication and going after other flesh, were +made an example, suffering the punishment of eternal fire. + +1:8. In like manner, these men also defile the flesh and despise +dominion and blaspheme majesty. + +Blaspheme majesty... Speak evil of them that are in dignity; and even +utter blasphemies against the divine majesty. + +1:9. When Michael the archangel, disputing with the devil, contended +about the body of Moses, he durst not bring against him the judgment of +railing speech, but said: The Lord command thee. + +Contended about the body, etc... This contention, which is no where else +mentioned in holy writ, was originally known by revelation, and +transmitted by tradition. It is thought the occasion of it was, that the +devil would have had the body buried in such a place and manner, as to +be worshipped by the Jews with divine honours. Command thee... or rebuke +thee. + +1:10. But these men blaspheme whatever things they know not: and what +things soever they naturally know, like dumb beasts, in these they are +corrupted. + +1:11. Woe unto them! For they have gone in the way of Cain: and after +the error of Balaam they have for reward poured out themselves and have +perished in the contradiction of Core. + +Gone in the way, etc... Heretics follow the way of Cain, by murdering +the souls of their brethren; the way of Balaam, by putting a scantal +before the people of God, for their own private ends; and the way of +Core or Korah, by their opposition to the church governors of divine +appointment. + +1:12. These are spots in their banquets, feasting together without fear, +feeding themselves: clouds without water, which are carried about by +winds: trees of the autumn, unfruitful, twice dead, plucked up by the +roots: + +1:13. Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own confusion: +wandering stars, to whom the storm of darkness is reserved for ever. + +1:14. Now of these Enoch also, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, +saying: Behold, the Lord cometh with thousands of his saints: + +Prophesied... This prophecy was either known by tradition, or from some +book that is since lost. + +1:15. To execute judgment upon all and to reprove all the ungodly for +all the works of their ungodliness, whereby they have done ungodly: and +for all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken against God. + +1:16. These are murmurers, full of complaints, walking according to +their own desires: and their mouth speaketh proud things, admiring +persons, for gain's sake. + +1:17. But you, my dearly beloved, be mindful of the words which have +been spoken before by the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ: + +But you, my dearly beloved, be mindful, etc... He now exhorts the +faithful to remain steadfast in the belief and practice of what they had +heard from the apostles, who had also foretold that in aftertimes (lit. +in the last time) there should be false teachers, scoffing and +ridiculing all revealed truths, abandoning themselves to their passions +and lusts; who separate themselves from the Catholic communion by +heresies and schisms. Sensual men... carried away and enslaved by the +pleasures of the senses. + +1:18. Who told you that in the last time there should come mockers, +walking according to their own desires in ungodlinesses. + +1:19. These are they who separate themselves, sensual men, having not +the Spirit. + +1:20. But you, my beloved, building yourselves upon your most holy +faith, praying in the Holy Ghost, + +1:21. Keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our +Lord Jesus Christ, unto life everlasting. + +Building yourselves upon your most holy faith... Raising by your +actions, a spiritual building, founded, 1st, upon faith; 2d, on the love +of God; 3d, upon hope, whilst you are waiting for the mercies of God, +and the reward of eternal life; 4th, joined with the great duty of +prayer. + +1:22. And some indeed reprove, being judged: + +1:23. But others save, pulling them out of the fire. And on others have +mercy, in fear, hating also the spotted garment which is carnal. + +And some indeed repove being judged... He gives them another instruction +to practice charity in endeavouring to convert their neighbour, where +they will meet with three sorts of persons: 1st, With persons obstinate +in their errors and sins; these may be said to be already judged and +condemned; they are to be sharply reprehended, reproved, and if possible +convinced of their error. 2d, As to others you must endeavour to save +them, by pulling them, as it were, out of the fire, from the ruin they +stand in great danger of. 3d, You must have mercy on others in fear, +when you see them through ignorance of frailty, in danger of being drawn +into the snares of these heretics; with these you must deal more gently +and mildly, with a charitable compassion, hating always, and teaching +others to hate the carnal garment which is spotted, their sensual and +corrupt manners, that defile both the soul and body. + +1:24. Now to him who is able to preserve you without sin and to present +you spotless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, in the +coming of our Lord Jesus Christ: + +1:25. To the only God our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord, be +glory and magnificence, empire and power, before all ages, and now, and +for all ages of ages. Amen. + +Now to him, etc... St. Jude concludes his epistle with this doxology of +praising God, and praying to the only God our Saviour, which may either +signify God the Father, or God as equally agreeing to all the three +persons, who are equally the cause of Christ's incarnation, and man's +salvation, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who, being God from eternity, +took upon him our human nature, that he might become our Redeemer. + + + + + +*** END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK, THE BIBLE, DOUAY-RHEIMS, BOOK 72 *** + +*********** This file should be named 8372.txt or 8372.zip *********** + +Produced by David Widger + +Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US +unless a copyright notice is included.
