Study Commentary On The New Testament Book Of James

This study commentary on James is the result of studying with 'fresh eyes' not encumbered by any particular set of doctrines. That alone sets this commentary apart from many others. Rather, this commentary lets the Biblical text speak for itself - at times with surprising and exciting results! Also, by engaging the richness of the original Greek and the context in which James wrote, this book shows how passages often have a range of possible meanings. This book aims at the 'accessible' center of the very wide area between the purpose and minutia of an often ponderous academic commentary and a usually superficial and unchallenging Sunday school curriculum. Specifically, it aims to challenge Christians who may be well-versed in what the Bible says, but are lacking in its meanings beyond 'school-approved' formulas. But it also is designed to be useful for the teacher and serious Bible explorer. What did the Biblical author say, what did he mean then, and how is any of that relevant to Christians today? These are questions with which we all wrestle. This book does not seek to answer all of these questions for its readers and teachers, or make comment on every detail. Rather, this commentary seeks to facilitate serious Bible explorers in finding their own answers.
