Why the Book of Jude is False

God Himself buried Moses

Deuteronomy 34:5-6 is part of the Torah, written in ancient Hebrew
"So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD. And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth-peor; but no one knows his burial place to this day."

So, What’s Going On with Later Stories?

Deuteronomy 34:5-6 (Old Hebrew) = No dispute, no Satan.
Jude 9 (Greek) = Picks up later Jewish traditions.

Why the Book of Jude is False and Does Not Align with God's Word


1. Jude Was Not Written by the Apostle Jude (Brother of Jesus)
The book claims to be written by "Jude, the brother of James" (Jude 1:1), but the Greek writing style is too refined for a Galilean Jew whose primary language was Aramaic or Hebrew.
If the real Jude (Yehudah) wrote something, it would have been in Hebrew or Aramaic, not sophisticated Greek.
The earliest churches were skeptical of Jude, and it was not widely accepted until much later.

2. Jude Uses Non-Biblical Sources Instead of the Hebrew Scriptures
Jude 9 refers to a dispute over Moses' body between Michael and the Devil—this story is not in the Torah or the Prophets. It likely comes from a later Jewish writing (The Assumption of Moses), which was never part of God’s Word.
Jude 14-15 directly quotes 1 Enoch, saying Enoch prophesied about the coming judgment. But 1 Enoch is not in the Hebrew Bible and was never considered Scripture by early Jews or Jesus' followers.
Jesus and the apostles always quoted the Torah, Psalms, and Prophets—never 1 Enoch or these extra writings.

3. Jude Misunderstands “Satan” as a Personal Being Instead of a Title
Jude 9 presents "the Devil" (διάβολος, diabolos) as a single, personal being, which does not match the Old Hebrew understanding of "satan" (שָּׂטָן), meaning adversary.
The Torah does not teach that "Satan" is a fallen angel, yet Jude follows later Greek myths instead of Hebrew Scripture.
Jesus never taught about a fallen angel named Satan, but instead warned against human sin and false teachings.

4. Jude Uses Fear-Based Warnings That Do Not Reflect Jesus’ Teachings
Jude uses harsh, fear-driven language:
Calls people "wandering stars, for whom blackest darkness is reserved forever" (Jude 13).
Uses examples of angels being bound in chains (Jude 6)—again, this idea is found in 1 Enoch, not the Torah.
Instead of teaching about repentance and God's mercy, Jude focuses on condemnation, which is not how Jesus taught.

5. The Early Church Did Not Universally Accept Jude
Jude was not accepted by all early Christians. It was missing from some of the earliest lists of Christian books.
Origen (c. 200 AD) and Eusebius (c. 300 AD) both mention that many Christians rejected Jude.
The earliest churches relied on the Torah, the Prophets, and Jesus' words—not Greek myths.

Conclusion: The Book of Jude Is False
Not written by Jude (the brother of Jesus).
Uses Greek myths instead of Hebrew Scripture.
Misunderstands "Satan" as a fallen angel.
Relies on fear and extra-biblical sources like 1 Enoch.
Was not fully accepted by the early church.
Since Jesus and the apostles only taught from the Torah, Prophets, and Psalms, Jude is not inspired by God. It was added later by Greek-influenced Christians, not by the first followers of Jesus who understood Hebrew Scripture.

The book does not align with God's truth, and it is right to reject it as a false writing.
