Jude 1. If he were related to Jesus, he's just like James and Peter
in that he doesn't include any personal stories about J.C. No
recollections of a childhood spent playing with G.I. Joes by the
Sea of Galilee or stories about how it's tough trying to live up to
your brother. Especially when that brother is the only begotten son
of God. Talk about sibling rivalry. Write On Next question: did
Jude, a brother of James and Jesus, really write this epistle?
Another blood relative penning biblical books? Based on the fact
that none of our authors have been have been 100% authentic so far,
you might be thinking…no. And you mght be right. Or not. Jude kind
of falls into a gray area. Quite a few scholars think the letter
could have been written by a guy named Jude who lived in Palestine
in the years just after Jesus' death. He's using a Hebrew
translation of the Hebrew Bible (which would have been way more
popular in Judea than the Greek version). He's also way into the
Book of Enoch—a bit of Jewish literature about the end of the world
that was popular back in the day. It was light reading on a warm
Jerusalem night. But on the no side, scholars point to the passage
about "the salvation we share" (Jude 1:3). That's an idea that
probably would have come around after all the original apostles had
died. It takes a while to open things up to everyone, after all.
Most scholars lean towards the Jude-wrote-it camp. Think about it.
If you're gonna fake a letter, it makes more sense to say the
author is the Apostle Paul or St. Peter or James, the brother of
Jesus. But Jude? He's not that big of a player in the 1st-century
church to attract notice—even he has to cling to James's coattails
by telling us they're related. We're not saying he's a nobody, but
his name isn't packing the people in their seats either. If the
real Jude is the author, that means that this is a pretty old
letter. It also means that 2 Peter is actually copying Jude. Well,
Jude got a book in the Bible! Cool!
