 Epistle of Jude - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The epistle is titled as written by "Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and a brother of James" (NIV), although that authorship is doubted by many scholars.
As opinions and traditions within the Christian community still differ as to the identity of Jude or Judas, the brother of Jesus and James, the issues of the apostle's identity are discussed at Jude Thomas.
It was composed as an encyclical letter—that is, one not directed to the members of one church in particular, but intended rather to be circulated and read in all churches.

 Clarke's Commentary - Jude 1
The reasons which induced Jude to write this epistle, to excite the Christians to contend for the true faith, and to beware of false teachers, lest, falling from their steadfastness, they should be destroyed after the example of backsliding Israel, the apostate angels, and the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrha, 3-7.
"This epistle was written A. 64, by the Apostle Jude, the brother of James; who is also called Lebbeus and Thaddeus; and who preached (the Gospel) to the Armenians and to the Persians."- This is found at the end of the ARMENIAN Bible, printed in 1698.
With the Epistle of Jude end all the apostolical epistles, and with it the canon of the New Testament, as to gospels and epistles; for the Apocalypse is a work sui generis, and can rank with neither.

For an appeal like that of our epistle to the authority of the past against the moral laxity and antinomian teaching of degenerate Pauline churches in the Greek world, the natural resort after Paul himself (Pastoral Epp.) would be the kindred of the Lord who were the leaders and witnesses in every church in Palestine.

Jude writes as one whose authority is unquestioned, and as one who can himself remember and vouch for the original content of the gospel, departure from which is fatal.

 USCCB - NAB - Jude
Nothing else is known of this Jude, and the apparent need to identify him by reference to his better-known brother indicates that he was a rather obscure personage in the early church.
The person intended is almost certainly the other Jude, named in the gospels among the relatives of Jesus (Matthew 13:55; Mark 6:3), and the James who is listed there as his brother is the one to whom the Letter of James is attributed (see the Introduction to James).
Most scholars believe that Jude is the earlier of the two, principally because he quotes two apocryphal Jewish works, the Assumption of Moses (Jude 1:9) and the Book of Enoch (Jude 1:14-15) as part of his structured argument, whereas 2 Peter omits both references.

Jude's subsequent purpose was "to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." We might also call this his necessitated purpose, since Jude declared "I found it necessary" to do so.

Nor yet to the prediction of Enoch (1:14,15), for it speaks of the advent of the Lord in judgment at the last day, whereas Jude applies his reference to the ungodly who were then present in the Christian assemblies, corrupting the churches with their wicked teaching and practices.

 THE EPISTLE OF JUDE
I believe the Holy Spirit gave Jude a vision, of that which is in the church, and even more so today.
But Jude explains, it is necessary, rather to exhort (to urgently appeal) to his readers to earnestly contend (to struggle in rivalry, to argue for, to assert) for the faith.

A.D. Some things in Jude have parallels in the Pastorals-God our Savior, verse 25; the idea of faith as something once for all intrusted to God's people, verse 3—but it cannot be said to show dependence upon them.

 Review of Landon, A Text-Critical Study of the Epistle of Jude
His claim that Jude has an observably consistent style is questionable in light of the brevity of the book, but since he has set the author's style as his preeminent criterion for making textual judgments, he has fulfilled his obligation of trying to identify Jude's characteristic stylistic traits.
Scholars of textual criticism or of the book of Jude may glean helpful insights from many of Landon's discussions of units of variation, but his arguments cannot be accepted uncritically, and less-experienced students should consult those more familiar with textual criticism before accepting Landon's arguments concerning a particular set of variations.
Ideally such a discussion should include not only the presentation of data concerning which book was the source of the other (Landon follows the majority opinion and believes that Jude came first) but also an examination of the history of transmission of the two books.
