I don’t recall ever reading or hearing of the book of Jude before I saw the readings for today. As a result I spent a bit of time trying to place the epistle in context and to understand as best I could its origins. I’m not sure I know any more than when I started, except perhaps that it is one of the shortest books in the bible and was written in the latter part of the first century of the CE.
And so my prayer today is for the grace to more fully understand the mystery that is faith, and thus to deepen my own faith foundation.
