Jude (alternatively Judas or Judah; Ancient Greek: Ἰούδας) was a "brother" of Jesus according to the New Testament.He is traditionally identified as the author of the Epistle of Jude, a short epistle which is reckoned among the seven general epistles of the New Testament—placed after Paul's epistles and before the Book of Revelation—and considered canonical by Christians.
Jude is the patron saint of the Chicago Police Department, of Customs Officers, of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo (a soccer team in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) and of two St Jude's GAA teams, the first in Templeogue Dublin 6W and also St Jude's GAA club in Southampton & Bournemouth (UK). His other patronages include desperate situations and hospitals.

Debate continues as to whether the author of the epistle is the apostle, the brother of Jesus, both, or neither.
