Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - James 4:6-10

James 4:6-10. But he God, giveth more grace To all those who, while they shun those tempers, sincerely and earnestly pray for it. Wherefore he saith, [see the margins] God, resisteth the proud The unhumbled; those that think highly of themselves, and put confidence in their own wisdom, power, or holiness, and who seek the praise of men rather than the praise of God; against these God sets himself in battle array, as it is expressed, Proverbs 3:24. He rejects them, and will not allow... read more

James 4:11-12. Speak not evil one of another See on Titus 3:2. Evil- speaking is a grand hinderance of peace and comfort; yea, and of holiness. O who is sufficiently aware of the evil of that sin? He that speaketh evil of his brother Of his fellow-Christian or fellow-creature; and judgeth his brother For such things as the word of God allows, or does not condemn, does, in effect, speak evil of the law Both of Moses and of Christ, which forbids that kind of speaking; and judgeth the... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - James 4:1-12

Worldliness and its results (4:1-12)Continuing his teaching on the evil results of worldly attitudes, James explains why fights and quarrels occur. Selfish ambition fights against the more spiritual motives. Some Christians are constantly looking for more power, increased possessions and higher status. Because they want the wrong things, they do not pray. If they pray, they find their prayers refused, and so try to do things their own way (4:1-3). This is worldliness, and it is opposed to the... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - James 4:10

Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he shall exalt you.This is an appeal for the unconverted to forsake the human pride, which more than any other impediment restrains men from obeying the word of the Lord; and, like most of this passage, it also has its abiding relevance for Christians themselves. Jesus said, "Whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted" (Matthew 23:12), in the light of which Gibson saw here "a further parallel with our Lord's teachings."[23] In the sight of... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - James 4:11

Speak not one against another, brethren. He that speaketh against a brother, or judgeth his brother, speaketh against the law, and judgeth the law; but if thou judgeth the law, thou art not a doer of the law, but a judge.Speaketh against the law ... "James does not here use `the law' as a reference to the Mosaic Law, because he is writing to Christians, not to Jews."[24] All efforts to dissociate James' teaching from the religion of Christ and move it back into Judaism should be resisted.... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - James 4:12

One only is the lawgiver and judge, even he who is able to save and destroy: but who art thou that judgest thy neighbor?One only is lawgiver ... judge ... Moses was known as the great "lawgiver" of the Old Testament; and it is not amiss, therefore, to see his great antitype, Jesus Christ the Holy One, as the lawgiver and judge referred to here. Christ himself made his teachings to be the "rock" upon which alone the builder could safely build (Matthew 7:24-27). His word will judge men "at the... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - James 4:10

James 4:10. Humble yourselves, &c.— "In this manner lay yourselves at the foot of God with the lowest prostration and self-abasement, as offenders against his sacred Majesty, and with an affecting conviction that he knows your hearts and principally looks at them, and observes all the secret workings of corruption, on the one hand, and of contrite sorrow, on the other, that pass within them; and he will revive your drooping souls with a sense of his pardoning and recovering grace; will... read more
