Jude 1:12-15
1:12 These men are
dangerous reefs
at your love feasts,
feasting without reverence,
feeding only themselves.
They are
waterless
clouds, carried along by the winds; autumn trees without fruit
– twice dead,
uprooted;
1:13 wild sea waves,
spewing out the foam of
their shame;
wayward stars
for whom the utter depths of eternal darkness
have been reserved.
1:14 Now Enoch, the seventh in descent beginning with Adam, even prophesied of them, saying, “Look! The Lord is coming with thousands and thousands of his holy ones,
1:15 to execute judgment on all, and to convict every person of all their thoroughly ungodly deeds that they have committed, and of all the harsh words that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”
Jude 1:4-5
1:4 For certain men
have secretly slipped in among you
– men who long ago
were marked out
for the condemnation I am about to describe
– ungodly men who have turned the grace of our God into a license for evil
and who deny our only Master
and Lord,
Jesus Christ.
1:5 Now I desire to remind you (even though you have been fully informed of these facts once for all) that Jesus, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, later destroyed those who did not believe.

1:16 These people are grumblers and
fault-finders who go
wherever their desires lead them,
and they give bombastic speeches,
enchanting folks
for their own gain.
Isaiah 10:29
10:29 They went through the pass,
spent the night at Geba.
Ramah trembled,
Gibeah of Saul ran away.
Hosea 10:9
Failure to Learn from the Sin and Judgment of Gibeah
10:9 O Israel, you have sinned since the time of Gibeah,
and there you have remained.
Did not war overtake the evildoers in Gibeah?
