The Letter of James is the focus of the latest commentary in the Belief series. In the Letter of James, the writer sends encouragement to the early church, in the midst of the struggles and strife that marked its early days. Theologian Martha L. Moore-Keish guides the reader through the brief but important letter, most known for its discussion of the importance of actions to make a true life of faith. The volumes in the Belief series offer a fresh and invigorating approach to all the books of the Bible. Building on a wide range of sources from biblical studies and the Christian tradition, noted scholars focus less on traditional, historical and literary angles in favor of a theologically focused commentary that considers the contemporary relevance of the text.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The value of this commentary, like the others in this series, is the theological vision brought to bear on the exegesis. Moore-Keish is supremely qualified for this task, with her deep roots in Reformed theology and long engagement with world religions.

Anna V. Ostenso Moore
5.0 out of 5 stars Tool for Preachers and Teachers
Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2019
The writing is accessible and engaging. Each discussion of a section of James offers the reader an overview of historical theological interpretation and connection to today's world with modern cultural illustrations. The illustrations are particularly helpful for those preaching and teaching James. James cautions that not many of us should be teachers, the irony of this is noted in this book and in this review.
