APOKALYPSIS EUANGELION

YHUDAH

[01] Yhudah, a servant of Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ, and brother of Yakob:

[02] To those beloved in the Father Θ̅Ω, preserved and called of Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ, mercy unto you, and peace and love be multiplied.

[03] Beloved, doing all diligence to write unto you concerning our common salvation, I have a necessity to write unto you, and to exhort you, that you should earnestly contend for the faithfulness that was one time delivered to the holy ones.

[04] For there are certain manfaced entered in alongside by stealth, those of ancient time previously written unto this condemnation, impious ones, perverting the grace of our του Θ̅Υ into wantonness, disavowing the only Master and our τον Κ̅Ν Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ.

[05] I am resolved therefore to put you in remembrance: for you know that at one time He Who delivered His people out of the land of Mitzraim, the second time destroyed those that believed not.

[06] Also the malakim which guarded not their principality, but left their own habitation, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness to the judgment of the great day:

[07] Even as Sodom and Gomorrah, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and turning aside after strange flesh, having been set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of everlasting fire.

[08] However these dreamers in like manner contaminate the flesh, despise dominion, and blaspheme the glorious.

[09] Moreover Mikael the Malak Gadol, when contending with the Devil, disputing concerning the body of Mosheh, ventured not to bring against him a railing accusation, but said, Κ̅C rebuke you.

[10] But these blaspheme what they know not, and what they understand naturally, as irrational creatures: by these things they are utterly corrupted.

[11] Woe unto them: for they departed in the way of Kain, and rushed forth after the error of Balaam for reward, and perished in the gainsaying of Korah.

[12] These are hidden crags feasting together with you in your love-feasts, shepherds feeding themselves without fear, clouds without water carried along by the winds,

[13] Autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, plucked up by the roots, fierce waves of the sea foaming out their own shame,

[14] Wandering stars, (Sefer Henok 3b:18-21), for whom the gloom of the darkness is reserved into the olam.

[15] Moreover Henok the seventh from Adam also prophesied against these, saying,

[16] Behold, Κ̅C comes with His myriads of holy ones, to execute judgment upon all, and to convict all the impious for all their impious deeds they have impiously committed,

[17] And for all the fierceness which the impious sinners have spoken against Him.

[18] These are murmurers, complainers walking after their own lusts, and their mouths speaking swelling admiration unto countenances [of men] for the sake of advantage.

[19] But you, beloved, remember the sayings previously spoken by the apostles of our του Κ̅Υ Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ.

[20] They told you that there shall be mockers in the final time, walking after their own impious lusts: the same are the ones separating naturally, not having the Spirit.

[21] But you, beloved, build up yourselves in your holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit.

[22] Guard yourselves in the love of Θ̅Υ, looking for the mercy of our του Κ̅Υ Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ into life everlasting.

[23] And on some who are in doubt have mercy, others deliver with fear, snatching them out of the fire:

[24] And on others have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.

[25] And to the One who is able to guard you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the Presence of His glory with exceeding joy:

[26] To the only Θ̅Ω, our Savior by way of Ι̅Η Χ̅Ρ our του Κ̅Υ, be glory, majesty, dominion, and power, from olam and into the olamim. Amen.


In the most ancient Uncial Greek texts both the Nomina Sacra and Greek numerals are signified with an overstrike. The final lunate sigma held the same numerical value as the letter stigma, that is, the number six. This may be seen in texts where Greek letters are used as numbers, the most famous instance being the number six hundred sixty six, as found in Apokalypse Yoĥanne. In the manuscripts which employ letters for the number, (cf. P47, P115), it is readily seen that the letter for six is identical to the lunate sigma but is in all likelihood the letter stigma, and represents the number six.

It is absolutely critical to determine the meaning of any particular Nomen Sacrum by the context, and especially regarding whether the Nomen Sacrum be arthrous or anarthrous, (with or without the article attached). The faithful are to be taught of Elohim, and not of men, and therefore I have included every place in the Greek writings where the Nomina Sacra appear and have included the article and form if it be present. These things make a very big difference, but unfortunately, a difference which cannot be shown in English without the reader and-or translator making interpretive decisions.
