Jude I:8-13
(Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition)
In like manner these men also defile the flesh, and despise dominion,
and blaspheme majesty.
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.
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.
 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.
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,
¹³ Raging waves of the sea, foaming out their own confusion; wandering stars, to whom the storm of darkness is reserved for ever.

summary:

Jude describes the false teachers as dreamers who defile the flesh, reject authority, and slander celestial beings. He compares them to Cain, Balaam, and Korah, and uses vivid metaphors to illustrate their destructive nature.

Historical Context:
Jude was likely written in the latter half of the first century, possibly between AD 65 and 80. This period was marked by the spread of Christianity and the emergence of false teachings and heresies. The early church faced internal and external challenges, including persecution and doctrinal corruption.

Audience and Purpose:
The letter is addressed to Christians, both Jews and Gentiles, familiar with Jewish traditions and the Old Testament. Jude warns them about false teachers infiltrating the church and urges believers to “contend earnestly for the faith” and stay steadfast in their beliefs amid increasing apostasy.

Firsts and Origins
~ First canonical writing to quote verbatim from an extra-biblical source
~ First New Testament text to link Cain, Balaam, and Korah in a single warning against rebellious leaders
~ First scriptural mention of the archangel Michael disputing with the devil over Moses’ body

While the Book of Jude does not provide a detailed list of prophecies and their fulfillments, it does emphasize the importance of being vigilant against false teachings and remaining steadfast in faith, as these challenges were foreseen by early Christian leaders.
