註釋The epistles in this edition were written by two of Jesus’s brothers, James and Jude, and Peter and John, each writing their namesake letters. The author of Hebrews is believed to be Paul or Peter. Hebrews addresses the Priesthood of Christ, who fulfilled the Old Testament laws. James, the brother of Jesus wrote the Epistle of James to address practical Christian living. Peter wrote to the Hebrew Christians that their purpose is encouragement and testimony. Peter sets forth the doctrines of grace but foresees the departure from the faith that will culminate during "the last days." The First Epistle of John was written as from the Father to His "little children." John treats the sins of a Christian like a child's offense against his Father. His second epistle is brief but strong in its message which centers round the "truth" in its relation to Christian living, and that Jesus Christ is Himself the Truth alive. His third letter is written to his friends, Gaius and Demetrius, praising them for sound Christian living. John rebuked a third church member, Diotrephes, who was one of the first examples of domineering ambition in the church. The Epistle of Jude was written by Jude, another brother of Jesus. His message was written against apostasies in the early church so threatening that the Spirit caused Jude to write this letter of warning. Jude describes how apostasy leads to sinful living. A bonus section is included: Revelation [Apocalypse] in Plain Language.
