The Letter of Jude

The Revelation of St. John the Divine

The Revelation of John, commonly known as the Apocalypse or Revelation or Book of Revelation (from ἀποκάλυψις, apokálypsis, a Greek term meaning "revelation"), is the last book of the New Testament (and therefore the last book of the Christian Bible) and is the only apocalypse in the canon of the Bible, of which it is one of the most difficult texts to interpret. The Apocalypse belongs to the group of New Testament writings known as "Johannine literature," since it was written, if not by the apostle himself, in the circles that referred to him and his teaching. Of 404 verses, 278 contain at least one Old Testament quotation. The books that are believed to have most influenced Revelation are the books of the Prophets, primarily Daniel, Ezekiel, Isaiah, Zechariah and also the Book of Psalms and Exodus.

The Letter of Jude

The Epistle of Jude, with its one chapter, is among the shortest writings in the New Testament and the last of the Catholic epistles. The author is Jude, brother of James. The letter is a call to fight for the right Christian faith and a warning to the Church against those false teachers who "abuse the grace of our God for secession." The letter is characterized by sharp condemnations of these false teachers and picturesque descriptions of the judgment against them. The text makes frequent use of images, narratives and metaphors drawn particularly from the Old Testament and other Hebrew literature. (From Italian Wikipedia)

The Third Letter of John

The third epistle of John is the third of John's epistles in the New Testament. It is the second shortest book in the entire Christian Bible, after the second of John. The letter appears addressed to a man named Gaius (or Gaius) but it is not known exactly if it is the same person who lived in Macedonia and who is quoted in Acts 19:29 or the Corinthian mentioned in Romans 16:23 or the one who lived in Derbe, quoted in Acts 20:4. It was written for the purpose of commending Gaius to a group of Christians led by Demetrius, who were strangers in the place where he lived and who had the mission to preach the gospel 3John 7. They had been refused hospitality by a local Christian chieftain, Diotrephes. (From Italian Wikipedia)

The Second Letter of John

The Second Epistle of John is a book of the New Testament. It is the shortest book in the entire Bible: it consists of only thirteen verses. It is a letter addressed to "the elect lady" (Ἐκκλεκτῇ) and closes with the words "The children of your elect sister greet you" (2 John 13). Of the thirteen verses that compose this epistle, seven are contained in the first of John. The person to whom the letter is addressed is commended for his piety and warned against false teachers.

The First Letter of John

John's first letter is traditionally one of the Catholic letters and is in the canonical order the 23rd book of the New Testament. The letter is also counted among the "Johannine Scriptures" - among which are the Gospel of John, the three Epistles of John and in many circles also the Revelation of John. It is common to assume that John's first letter was written towards the end of the first century in Ephesus, but the dating is uncertain. The key personalities are the Apostles Peter and Paul. Its purpose was to warn about the increasing threat of false teachings and to reassure Christians of their faith and love in Jesus Christ. (From Italian Wikipedia)
