CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE EPISTLE OF JUDE.St. Jude, says Origen, has written an Epistle in a few lines indeed, but full of vigorous expressions of heavenly grace.--[Ioudas men egrapsen epistolen oligostichon men pepleromenen de ouraniou charitos erromenon logon.] He briefly and forcibly represents the detestable doctrines and practices of certain false teachers, generally supposed to be the impure Gnostics, Nicolaitans and followers of Simon Magus; and reproves these profligate perverters of sound principles, and patrons of lewdness, with a holy indignation and just severity; while at the same time he exhorts all sound Christians, with genuine apostolic charity, to have tender compassion on these deluded wretches, and to endeavour vigorously to reclaim them from the ways of hell, and pluck them as brands out of the fire.
There is a great similarity in sentiment and style between this Epistle and the second chapter of the second Epistle of Peter.
Both writers are nearly alike in vehemence and holy indignation against impudence and lewdness, and against those who insidiously undermine chastity, purity, and sound principles.
• But who is this absolute Master, with unlimited rights over us? It is God, and the Lord Jesus Christ! Then, I reply, my destinies for time and eternity are in the only hands to which my soul, if it could choose, would absolutely entrust them. (“The Epistle of Jude”)
• Whatever, therefore, may be the special characters of evil and of danger at the present time, all turns upon this: What is Christ to my soul? And if I believe in His grace and in His truth then what does not my soul find in Christ? (“Lectures on Jude 25” by W. Kelly)
• Not only Christ our Savior. Christ is the accomplisher of it all, but here he looks at God as the source (“Lectures on Jude 25” by W. Kelly)
• [Jude] looks at the full extent of eternity….Peter speaks of "glory both now and unto eternity's day" (2 Pet. 3:18), Jude brings out what was, and is, and is to be, in all its full eternal character in the remarkable completeness of his closing ascription. (“Lectures on Jude 25” by W. Kelly)
• The songs of heaven may therefore be learned on earth; for God is above all time, unchanging, and His praise is therefore eternal. (article #86573)

WK Translation Notes

a
The word "wise" has crept in here. In all correct texts the word "wise" disappears in this place. It is perfectly right in {vi 28364}{/vi}. And I refer to that text to show its appropriateness there: "To God only wise." I presume that it was this passage that led whoever he was that was copying Jude, to (as he thought) correct it. But we cannot correct. All these human corrections are innovations, and our point is to get back to what God wrote and to what God gave. Everything except what God gave is an innovation, but God’s word is the standard, and all that departs from, or does without, it is an innovation.
b
Copyists are apt to enlarge and assimilate; they do not so often omit text, as here. These two texts are also omitted in the T. R., but are properly supplied by the Revisers, "through Jesus Christ our Lord" and "before all times." These texts rest on ample and sure authority, giving of course additional force and beauty to this solemn yet comforting epistle, with its closing doxology.
c
Let us remember that the study of the authorities on which the Greek Testament rests has greatly developed during the last seventy years, and especially perhaps the last thirty. During this time many fresh manuscripts, some of great value and antiquity, have been brought to light, along with a fuller and more exact collation of all that had been previously known; and this makes an error of the kind less excusable and more painful, if it be in a quarter one respects. [From footnote in {vi 30633}{/vi}]
