<P> The Epistle of Jude is a brief book of only a single chapter with 25 verses . It was composed as an encyclical letter -- that is , one not directed to the members of one church in particular , but intended rather to be circulated and read in all churches . The form , as opposed to the earlier letters of Paul , suggests that the author knew Paul 's Epistle to the Ephesians or even that the Pauline epistles had already been collected and were circulating when the text was written . </P>
