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 Moore-Keish guides the writer 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"--cProvided by publisher.  aDescription based on print version record and CIP data provided by publisher; resource not viewed00aBible.pJamesvCommentaries.08iPrint version:aMoore-Keish, Martha L., author.tJamesbFirst edition.dLouisville, Kentucky : Westminster John Knox Press, [2019]z9780664232641w(DLC)  2019002007
