雅各书 2:11-13 CUVS

Expositor's Dictionary of Texts - James 2:1-26

James 2:1 The sermon was chiefly occupied with proving that God is no respecter of persons; a mark of indubitable condescension in the clergyman, the rank in society which he could claim for himself duly considered. But, unfortunately, the church was so constructed, that its area contained three platforms of position, actually of differing level; the loftiest, in the chancel, on the right hand of the pulpit, occupied by the gentry; the middle, opposite the pulpit, occupied by the tulip-beds of... read more

II. THE ROYAL LAW: FAITH AND WORKS CHAPTER 2 1. The faith of Christ with respect to persons (James 2:1-5 ) 2. The royal law (James 2:6-13 ) 3. Faith must be manifested by works (James 2:14-26 ) James 2:1-5 Here we have the synagogue mentioned, sufficient evidence that these Jewish believers were still gathering together in the Jewish fashion, and were not an ecclesia, an assembly, gathered out. The Epistle to the Hebrews, written many years after the Epistle of James, exhorted them to... read more

Geneva Study Bible - James 2:11

2:11 {6} For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.(6) A proof: because the Lawmaker is always one and the same, and the contents of the law cannot be divided. read more

Geneva Study Bible - James 2:12

2:12 {7} So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.(7) The conclusion of the whole treatise: we are upon this condition delivered from the curse of the law by the mercy of God, that in the same way we should maintain and cherish charity and good will towards one another, and whoever does not do so, shall not taste of the grace of God. read more

Geneva Study Bible - James 2:13

2:13 For he shall have judgment without mercy, that hath shewed no {h} mercy; and mercy rejoiceth against judgment.(h) He that is harsh and short with his neighbour, or else does not help him, he shall find God a hard and rough judge to him. read more

L.M. Grant

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - James 2:1-26

The first 13 verses of this chapter form a second division of the book, dealing with the faith of Christ as being above all personal considerations, perfectly true and impartial. To mix the faith of Christ therefore with a partial respect for persons, is a matter here strongly reproved. For Christ is Lord of glory, and we answerable directly to Him, not to mere men, wealthy or otherwise. Verse 2 shows that Jewish believers were at that time still connected with the synagogue, for the word... read more

James Gray

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - James 2:1-26

RESPECT OF PERSONS ; FAITH AND WORKS We next have some admonition concerning respect of persons, or the relation of the rich and the poor (James 2:1 ; James 2:13 ). This would seem to be connected with the trials of the poor mentioned in chapter 1. It not infrequently happens that the people who complain of the abundance of the rich, are the most obsequious in their conduct, as if they expected something from them as a result. Perhaps it was so here. Or it may be, that this instruction... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - James 2:10-26

The Broken Law Jam 2:10-26 That seems to be hard. James is hard. He cuts like a diamond. Now and then he melts a little in his feeling, and then he says some gracious words; says indeed some of the most gracious words that can be found in the New Testament; then presently he straightens himself again as if he had never stooped to dry a tear. It seems unreasonable that, if a man be good in nine points, all the nine points should go for nothing because he is wrong or bad in the tenth point.... read more

Robert Hawker

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - James 2:1-13

My brethren, have not the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory, with respect of persons. (2) For if there come unto your assembly a man with a gold ring, in goodly apparel, and there come in also a poor man in vile raiment; (3) And ye have respect to him that weareth the gay clothing, and say unto him, Sit thou here in a good place; and say to the poor, Stand thou there, or sit here under my footstool: (4) Are ye not then partial in yourselves, and are become judges of evil... read more
