The Book of Jude

This tiny book – only one chapter in length – is unique for many reasons. First of all, the half-brother of Jesus Christ wrote it. Jude was one of Mary and Joseph’s sons, as was James – the author of the Book of James. It contains the only greeting in the New Testament that does not mention grace, but it also contains the only greeting in the New Testament that includes love. It was probably written as a letter to a congregation of Jewish Christians. And if you had to give the book a title that explains what lies within, perhaps you could call it, “The Faith Once Entrusted.”
