Berean Study Bible

to the only God
This phrase emphasizes the monotheistic foundation of the Christian faith, affirming that there is but one true God. The Greek word for "only" is "monos," which underscores the exclusivity and uniqueness of God. In a historical context, this declaration stands in contrast to the polytheistic beliefs prevalent in the Roman Empire during the time of Jude's writing. It serves as a reminder to believers to remain steadfast in their devotion to the one true God amidst a culture of many deities.

our Savior
The term "Savior" (Greek: "soter") is a profound title for God, highlighting His role in delivering humanity from sin and death. This title is rich with Old Testament connotations, where God is frequently depicted as the deliverer of Israel. In the New Testament, this title is also ascribed to Jesus Christ, reinforcing the unity of the Father and the Son in the work of salvation. It is a reminder of the personal relationship believers have with God, who is not only the Creator but also the Redeemer.

be glory
"Glory" (Greek: "doxa") refers to the honor and praise due to God. It is a term that conveys the weightiness and splendor of God's presence and character. In the biblical narrative, God's glory is often associated with His divine manifestations, such as the cloud on Mount Sinai or the transfiguration of Jesus. This call to ascribe glory to God is an invitation for believers to recognize and proclaim His supreme worth and beauty in all aspects of life.

majesty
The word "majesty" (Greek: "megalosune") speaks to the greatness and grandeur of God. It is a term that evokes reverence and awe, acknowledging God's exalted status above all creation. Historically, this term would resonate with Jude's audience, who were familiar with the majesty attributed to earthly kings and rulers. However, Jude redirects this concept to the divine, reminding believers that God's majesty far surpasses any earthly authority.

dominion
"Dominion" (Greek: "kratos") refers to God's sovereign power and control over all things. It is a term that signifies strength and might, emphasizing God's ability to govern the universe with absolute authority. In the context of Jude's letter, this serves as a reassurance to believers that despite the presence of false teachers and moral decay, God's dominion remains unchallenged and His purposes will ultimately prevail.

and authority
The term "authority" (Greek: "exousia") denotes the rightful power to command and enforce obedience. It is a reminder of God's ultimate jurisdiction over all creation. In the New Testament, this authority is also shared with Jesus Christ, who exercises divine authority in His teachings, miracles, and redemptive work. For Jude's audience, this affirmation of God's authority would provide comfort and confidence in the face of spiritual opposition.

through Jesus Christ our Lord
This phrase highlights the mediatory role of Jesus Christ in the relationship between God and humanity. The preposition "through" (Greek: "dia") indicates that all glory, majesty, dominion, and authority are realized and manifested through the person and work of Jesus Christ. It affirms the centrality of Christ in the Christian faith, as the one who reveals God to us and reconciles us to Him. The title "our Lord" underscores the personal and communal allegiance of believers to Jesus as their sovereign ruler.

before all time, and now, and for all eternity
This expression captures the eternal nature of God's attributes and reign. The phrase "before all time" (Greek: "pro pantos tou aionos") points to God's existence and sovereignty before the creation of the world. "And now" emphasizes His active presence and rule in the current age. "And for all eternity" (Greek: "eis pantas tous aionas") assures believers of God's unending dominion and faithfulness. This eternal perspective encourages believers to trust in God's unchanging nature and His ultimate plan for creation.

Amen
The word "Amen" (Hebrew: "amen") is a declaration of affirmation and truth. It is a liturgical term used to express agreement and certainty, often concluding prayers and doxologies. In this context, it serves as a powerful affirmation of the truths proclaimed in the verse, inviting the reader to join in the worship and acknowledgment of God's eternal glory and authority.
