THE LETTER OF JAMES is the best known of the 27 New Testament books. James is straightforward yet powerfully concerned with the actual doing rather than theory and ideas. His letter is filled with unforgettable figures of speech and illustrations that it has become the go-to book for the churchgoer and the church. This admiringly authentic verse-by-verse commentary makes every volume easy to understand and beneficial to your Christian life today. Yet, it also gives the reader a more in-depth understanding of God's Word. The author does not provide you with what he thinks, feels, or believes. Instead, he gives you what God said and what the Bible author meant by the words that he used. The reader will also be given the historical context, Bible backgrounds, and any Bible difficulties.
