    But these speak evil of whatever they do not know; and whatever they know naturally, like brute

    beasts, in these things they corrupt themselves. Woe to them! For they have gone in the way of Cain, have run greedily in the error of Balaam for profit, and perished in the rebellion of Korah. These are spots in your love feasts, while they feast with you without fear, serving only themselves. They are clouds without water, carried about by the winds; late autumn trees without fruit, twice dead, pulled up by the roots; raging waves of the sea, foaming up their own shame; wandering stars for whom is reserved the blackness of darkness forever. Jude 1:10-11 The American Heritage Dictionary defines woe and calamity as: woe n. 1. Deep distress or misery, as from grief; wretchedness. 2. Misfortune; calamity. --woe interj. Used to express sorrow or dismay. calamity n., pl. calamities. 1. An event that brings terrible loss, lasting distress, or severe affliction; a disaster. 2. Dire distress resulting from loss or tragedy. Woe to you doesnt mean that something good is going to happen to you? Its a phrase that Jesus loved to use when He cursed, not blessed, His antagonists and said to them: "But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and for a pretense make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves. Matthew 23:13-15 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have neglected the weightier matters of the law: justice and mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone. "Blind guides, who strain out a gnat and swallow a camel! "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you cleanse the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of extortion and self-indulgence. "Blind Pharisee, first cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanness. "Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness. Matthew 23:23-28 Jesus Christ, the epitome of love or Love personified, called his antagonists fools, blind guides, hypocrites, blind Pharisees, brood of vipers, sons of hell, dead men, etc. He didnt say nice things about them publicly? And Jude the half brother of Jesus talks about certain men have gone in the way of Cain and also said Woe to them! David Guzik, the director of Calvary Chapel Bible College, Germany, in his commentary on the book of Jude and 'woe to them' states: a. The way of Cain: Cains story is found in Genesis 4. There, we find that each of the sons of Adam and Eve brought an offering to the Lord. Cain (being a farmer) brought an offering from his harvest. Abel (being a shepherd) brought an offering from his flocks. God accepted Abels offering, but not Cains. i. Many people assume that because Abel brought a blood sacrifice and Cain brought a grain
