We find several examples in N.T. (e.g. Acts 20:29; 1 Timothy 4:1; Joshua 3:1 etc.) of predictions of false teaching and wickedness in the Christian body, but not of mockers, as here. Jude need not be referring to a written document, but to a spoken warning often uttered (ἔλεγον) by the Apostles. But see above on 2 Peter 3:3. The mockers, teaching as they did the lawfulness of many lax practices, would deride those who held the stricter view.
