The Rebellion of Angels and False Teachers
Jude 6 describes the rebellion of angels who left their position of authority and proper dwelling to sin. This rebellion is compared to the false teachers in verse 8 who reject authority and blaspheme the glorious ones. The angels' deliberate defection and rejection of God's authority is rooted in the story of the Watchers in the book of Enoch and other Second Temple Jewish literature. Their sin involved teaching humans forbidden knowledge, corrupting them, and leading to widespread wickedness. The rebellion of the angels serves as an archetypal example of apostasy, illustrating the severity of the false teachers' actions.
