Survey The River

Build the lens first: who wrote the book, when it was written, who heard it first, and why it exists.

GenreEpistle

Question 1

Who wrote it, to whom, and what problem are they fixing?

Question 2

What is the argument's logic — what claim, what reason, what therefore?

Question 3

What does this letter call this church (and me) to do?

The Epistle of Jude is the penultimate book of the New Testament and of the Christian Bible. The Epistle of Jude claims authorship by Jude, identified as a servant of Jesus and brother of James (and possibly Jesus), though there is scholarly debate about his exact identity, literacy, and the letter's date.

Jude, to the elect. Ungodly people pervert grace into sensuality. They are judged as twice dead trees. Build yourselves up in faith.
