18<\/strong>. there should be mockers in the last time<\/em> ] The word for “mockers” is found in 2Pe 3:3<\/span>, but the general character of those described agrees with the picture drawn in 1Ti 4:1<\/span>; 2Ti 3:1<\/span>. St Jude, it will be noted, does not dwell on the specific form of mockery, the taunts as to the delay in the second coming of the Lord, on which St Peter lays stress.<\/p>\n walk after their own ungodly lusts<\/em> ] Literally, after the lusts of their own impieties<\/strong>. The last word adds a special feature to the description already given, in nearly the same words, in Jud 1:16<\/span>.<\/p>\n Verse 18<\/span>. Mockers in the last time<\/B><\/I>] See the notes on 1Ti 4:1<\/span>; 2Ti 3:1<\/span>, c. and particularly 2Pe 3:2-3<\/span>, &c., to which Jude seems to refer.<\/P> <\/P> The last time<\/I>. – The conclusion of the Jewish polity.<\/P><\/p>\n Told you; <\/I>whether in their preaching or writing. <\/P> Ungodly lusts; <\/I>Greek, lusts of ungodliness; a Hebraism; the vilest lusts. <\/P> <\/p>\n mockers<\/B> In the parallel, 2Pe3:3<\/span>,the same Greek<\/I>is translated, scoffers. The word is found nowhere else in theNew Testament. How Alford can deny that 2Pe3:2<\/span>,2Pe3:3<\/span>is referred to (at least in part), I cannot imagine, seeing that Judequotes the very words of Peter<\/I>as the words which theapostles<\/I>used to speak to his (Judes) readers.<\/P> walkafter their own ungodly lusts<\/B> literally, after (according to) their own lusts ofungodliness.<\/I><\/P><\/p>\n How that they told you that there should be mockers in the last time<\/strong>,….

Jude is declaring that “by their (daily) fruits ye shall know (or recognize) them”, Mat 7:20<\/span>.<\/p>\n As surely as fire burns, bees sting, and rattlesnakes bite, religious, immoral, faultfinding, apostate creeps are dedicated enemies of sanctified believers. Let us recognize and resist and avoid and withdraw ourselves from these emissaries of Satan.<\/p>\n By the last time he means that in which the renewed condition of the Church received a fixed form till the end of the world; and it began at the first coming of Christ. <\/p>\n After the usual manner of Scripture, he calls them scoffers who, being inebriated with a profane and impious contempt of God, rush headlong into a brutal contempt of the Divine Being, so that no fear nor reverence keeps them any longer within the limits of duty: as no dread of a future judgment exists in their hearts, so no hope of eternal life. So at this day the world is full of Epicurean despisers of God, who having cast off every fear, madly scoff at the whole doctrine of true religion, regarding it as fabulous. <\/p>\n 18<\/strong>. <\/strong> Mockers walk after their own lusts<\/strong> Same Greek words as in 2Pe 3:3<\/span>; where see note: yet speaking here of a different set of mockers <\/strong> or scoffers<\/strong>. <\/p>\n In the last time<\/strong> Using nearly the same words of the same verse in Peter, yet referring to a different time.<\/p>\n Jud 1:18<\/span><\/em><\/strong>. <\/strong>After their own ungodly lusts.<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> Ungodly lusts <\/em>may denote such a life of sensuality, as argues that a man has not the fear of God. <\/p>\n Jud 1:18<\/span> . . The parallel in 2Pe 3:3<\/span> is , where see note on the use of the article with , etc.<\/em> For , cf.<\/em> Arist. Pol.<\/em> iv. 3, .<\/p>\n The prophecy of this mocking, as a mark of the future trials of the Church, has not come down to us. An example of it in the very beginning of the Church is given in Act 2:13<\/span> , . In the O.T. we have such examples as 2Ch 36:16<\/span> (the summing up of the attitude of the Jews towards the prophets) , Jer 20:8<\/span> , . Cf.<\/em> also the mockery at the crucifixion, and the declaration in Mat 10:25<\/span> f., , . . . In 2 Peter the purport of this mockery is explained to be the unfulfilled promise of the Parusia. Here we must gather its meaning from the account already given of the libertines. If they turned the grace of God into licentiousness, they would naturally mock at the narrowness and want of enlightenment of those who took a strict and literal view of the divine commandments: if they made light of authority and treated spiritual things with irreverence, if they foamed out their own shame and uttered proud and impious words, if they denied God and Christ, they would naturally laugh at the idea of a judgment to come. On the form and its cognates, see note on 2 Peter.<\/p>\n . I am rather disposed to take here as a subjective genitive, “lusts belonging to, or arising from their impieties,” cf.<\/em> Rom 1:28<\/span> , , . The position of the genitive is peculiar, and probably intended to give additional stress. We may compare it with Jas 2:1<\/span> , , , where some connect with in a qualitative sense.<\/p>\n told = said to. <\/p>\n should = shall. <\/p>\n mockers = scoffers. See 2Pe 3:3. <\/p>\n in.

A mocker is one who makes fun of that which he cannot meet otherwise. The motive they have is their desire to walk after their own ungodly lusts.<\/p>\n Jud 1:18. how that they told you in the last time there shall be mockers; only here and in 2Pe 3:3, where it is said that they show their quality in relation to the Second Coming of the Lord.<\/p>\n walking after the lusts of their ungodlinesses; each begetting the other; every lust rejecting the Divine that is opposed to it, and the rejection of what is Divine ending ever in aggravated immorality (see Rom 1:24; Rom 1:28-29). The expression here used is no doubt intended to call up the characteristic quality already described in Jud 1:15.<\/p>\n How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. 18. there should be mockers in the last time ] The word for “mockers” is found in 2Pe 3:3, but the general character of those described agrees with the picture drawn in 1Ti 4:1; … Continue reading “Exegetical and Hermeneutical Commentary of Jude 1:18”<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30603","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-commentary"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30603","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30603"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30603\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30603"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30603"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.biblia.work\/bible-commentary\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30603"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Fuente: The Cambridge Bible for Schools and Colleges<\/b><\/i><\/h4>\n
