Excerpt from Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament

That James is reckoned by Paul among the Jam, has certainly been adduced as an argument for the opposite opinion; but that Paul does not reckon those named as aft-jam because they were apostles, is undeniable; and that only apostles could be considered as 6101, is an unwarranted assumption. Bouman thinks that a mere private person could not attain to such an import ance; but he overlooks the fact that James, as the most prominent of the brothers of the Lord, who are named alongside of the apostles, was more than a mere private person.

Excerpt from Critical and Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament

In the new revision of this Commentary the following works have been chieﬂy examined. H. Bouman, comment. perpet. in Jac. ep., ed. 1863, the exposition of the Epistle by Lange (second edition, 1866) in Lange's Bibelwork, and the third edition of de Wette's exposition edited by Br�ckner. Whilst in the ﬁrst of these works a deep and thorough examination of the thoughts of the Epistle is awanting, the work of Lange is too defective in exegetieal carefulness, which alone can lead to sure results. In order to comprehend the Epistle historically, Lange proceeds from the most arbitrary hypotheses, which often mislead him into very rash, and sometimes strange explanations. It is to be regretted that, with all his spiritual feeling and acuteness, he has not been able to put a proper bridle upon his imagination. The second edition of de Wette's Handbook, containing the exposition of the Epistles of Peter, Jude, and James, had been previously prepared by Bruckner. When in the preface to the third edition he says that he has subjected this portion of the Handbook to a thorough revision, and, as far as possible, has made the necessary additions and corrections, this assertion is completely justified by the work. Although the remarks of Bruckner are condensed, yet they are highly deserving of attention, being the result of a true exegetical insight. It were to be wished that Br�ckner had been less trammelled by "the duty to preserve the work of de Wette as much as possible uncurtailed." Of the recent examinations on the relation of the Pauline View of justiﬁcation to that of James, I will only here mention the familiar dissertation of Hengstenberg: "the Epistle of James," in Nos. 91-94 of the Exangelical Church Magazine, 1866; and the explanation of Jas. ii.
