We say "Jude" but in the original Koine Greek, the man's name is identical to what we translate as "Judas". Isn't that a piece of compelling Bible trivia? (Not that it has anything to do with the contents of this short letter.)
In any case, unlike those who opted to shorten Judas to Jude, Jude tends to lengthen his letter with multiple and sometimes multi-layered examples.
Join me in another full Bible book study, this time of the book of Jude. Open your Bible and have the pause button ready as we begin with the questions and then conclude with the reading.
