{{Bible quote|See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of His holy ones to judge everyone, and to convict all the ungodly of all the ungodly acts they have done in the ungodly way, and of all the harsh words ungodly sinners have spoken against Him. |book=Jude|chap=1|verses=14-15}}
While this quote is nowhere else found in the canonical Scriptures, it is found in the pseudepigraphical Book of Enoch, which dates at least to the second century BC.<ref>http://creation.com/images/pdfs/articles/sons-of-god-genesis-6.pdf</ref> It is not known where Jude got the quote from; if this is the same Jude who was the half-brother of [[Jesus]], he could conceivably have learned the quote directly from Jesus and not from any book at all. ==External LinksExtra Biblical References==*Several apocryphal works dealing with Enoch were written near the time of Jesus.
