1. FRIDAY: JUDE 1:5
a. LAST WEEK – JUDE WARNING AGAINST WOLVES IN THECHURCH TEACHING FALSE DOCTRINES, EXPRESSLEY FREE GRACE WITHOUT OBEDIENCE, ONCESAVED ALWAYS SAVED, AND THOSE ATTACKING THE GODHEAD.
b. Jud1:5 I will therefore put you in remembrance, though ye once knew this,how that the Lord, having saved the people out of the land of Egypt, afterwarddestroyed them that believed not.
i. JOSEPHBENSON: That is, destroyed the far greater part of that very people, whom hehad once saved in a very extraordinary manner. Let no one, therefore, presumeupon past mercies, as if he were now out of danger. Jude does not mention thevarious sins committed by the Israelites in the wilderness, such as theirworshipping the golden calf, refusing to go into Canaan, when commanded of God,their fornication with the Midianitish women, their frequent murmurings,&c., but he sums up the whole in their unbelief, because it was thesource of all their sins.
ii. ADAMCLARKE: Because they neither believed his word, nor were obedient to hiscommands.
iii. GENEVA:He presents the horrible punishment of those who have abused the graceof God to follow their own lusts.
iv. MATTHEW HENRY: God is the same holy, just, pureBeing now, as then. Stand in awe, therefore, and sin not, Psa_4:4.
v. 1Co 10:5 But with many of them God was not well pleased: for they were overthrown in thewilderness.
1. Theyrebelled and sinned, and were destroyed.
