What do Jude and 2 Peter say about the angels who sinned?
DirectA clear verse states this directly, and no higher-or-equal-authority text overturns it.
Both Jude and 2 Peter state plainly that angels who sinned were not spared by God but are currently held in chains of darkness, confined until a final day of judgment, and both use this as a warning that God will likewise judge ungodly humans.
Peter (2 Peter 2:4) and Jude (Jude 1:6) both directly state the fact: God cast the sinning angels into confinement under darkness, reserving them for judgment. No same-or-higher-tier text contradicts this. The details of their sin are implied rather than spelled out in the canonical text, but the fact of their sin, imprisonment, and pending judgment is stated outright.
