14. _Jude:_ "Jude, 'brother of James,' is supposed to be the Apostle (surnamed Thaddeaus and Lebbaeus), and a near relation of our Lord (Matt. x: 3; xiii: 55; Luke vi: 16). The epistle is remarkable for the quotation of an otherwise unrecorded saying of Enoch (ver. 14), and a tradition of a dispute between Michael the archangel and Satan regarding the body of Moses (ver. 9.) Its date, place, and occasion, are unknown; but it seems to denounce the same false teachers as those rebuked in II Peter ii, and in very similar language; warning them by the example of the fallen angels, of Cain, the impenitent in the times of Noah, of the wicked cities of the plain, of Korah, and Balaam; asserting the certainty of the future judgment and punishment of the wicked." (Bagster Bible Helps, p 30.) 15. _Revelation:_ "This is the only [most largely] prophetic book of the New Testament, and much of it remains still unfulfilled. There is satisfactory evidence of its being genuine. Justin Martyr, living sixty years after its supposed date, ascribes it to John; Papias acknowledges its inspiration; Irenaeus (disciple of Polycarp, who was John's own disciple) testifies to his authorship, and that he had himself received the explanation of one passage in it from those who had conversed with the Apostle about it. To these may be added Clement of Alexandria, Theophilus, Tertullian, Origen, Cyprian, Jerome, Athanasius, etc." (Bagster Bible Helps, p. 30.) See Doctrine & Covenants, sec.. lxxvii; also Y. M. I. A.
