Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from The Annotated Bible

I. Trials and the Power of Faith: Verses 1-4. The first verse is the introduction. The writer is James, but he does not add, as he might have done, the brother of the Lord. It would have identified his person at once, and being the Lord's brother, he had a perfect right to call himself thus. But he did not. His humility shines forth in this omission; others called him by that title, but he avoided it. He is servant of God, and he served God as servant of the Lord Jesus Christ, a godly believing Jew. He writes to the twelve tribes in the dispersion of like faith. But the beau tiful words of greeting in other Epistles Grace and peace be unto you, are not used by him. Greetings only are sent, and in this respect it is like the Apostolic document which was issued by the council in Jerusalem in Acts xv (see Acts xs3).

Excerpt from The Annotated Bible, Vol. 4: The Holy Scriptures Analysed and Annotated; New Testament; James Revelation

The sources of temptations are mentioned in connection with this beatitude. There are two sources of temptations. There are temptations, the trial of faith which comes from God for our own good; there is a temptation of the flesh.
