Why were Michael and Satan arguing about the body of Moses?
Question: I have a Bible question about Jude: Why were Michael and Satan arguing about the corpse of Moses? Answer: “Yet in the same way these men, also by dreaming, defile the flesh, and reject authority, and revile angelic majesties.

Read MoreDoes Jude 4 mean that some people are predestined for destruction?
Question: Could you explain Jude 1:4? Because the translation of my Bible says “these men were predestinated to it.” So they had no choice?

Read MoreIf the Book of Enoch isn’t an authoritative book, then why is Jude in the Bible?
Question: This is really well put together as to why Enoch was written by man, but I am a bit confused. When I go read a study on Jude, Enoch is mentioned as if it’s an authoritative book.

Sorry, something came to mind about the dating of Jude and…

Question: “Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints” (Jude 3). The words “for all” is not in the King James Version of the…
Read MoreWhy is Jude 9 linked to Zechariah 3:2?
Question: I have a question about the book of Jude. In particular, verse 9. It talks about the archangel Michael and the devil in a dispute about the body of Moses. I had not read this before, or at least don’t remember it. At the bottom of the page, the reference is Zechariah 3:2. I…
