Jude mentions angels three times, and these are considered to help our understanding of these creatures of God. There is their rebellion (which raises questions about Genesis 6 and the Nephilim) which brings judgement on them. There is then the dispute between Michael and Satan, where we learn that the office—but not the person—of Satan is to be respected, and this is to be reflected in respect for all authority. Finally, the role of angels in judgement is noted as they accompany Christ when he returns.
