Jude 1:10

John Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible · John Gill (1697–1771) · Public Domain

2Pe 2:12; and that they have been beasts to themselves, as Jarchi renders and interprets it; made beasts of themselves by their brutish gratifications; have been cruel to themselves, ruining and destroying their own souls; or among themselves, and to one another, "homo lupus homini"; hence wicked men are compared to lions, foxes, evening wolves, vipers, and the like.

So Mr. Broughton renders it, "how they are beasts, they to themselves." Mdah ynb trbd le "super verbum filiorum Adam", Montanus; "verbis hominum", Arabic and Syriac versions. Mrbl oti diakrinei autouv "ut discernat illos", Cocceius; "quia delegit eos", some in Vatablus; so Aben Ezra and Ben Melech.

"Ut ipsi expurgent Deum", Anglic. in Reinbeck; some in Rambachius render it thus, "ut seligant ipsi (homines) Deum"; so Varenius. Cisteilaria, Act.
