The author presents careful research into the historical context, purpose, structure, and message of James, which has often been misunderstood, notably in the Lutheran tradition. Dr. Giese offers a positive, corrective interpretation. The overarching theme of James is "the gifts of the giving God and their use." James 1:16-18 stands as the theological center of the book: the eschatological gift of rebirth in Jesus Christ, to be firstfruits of the new creation, establishes the right use of all other divine gifts"--cProvided by publisher.00aBible.pJamesvCommentaries. 7aCommentaries.2lcgft0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2025026014  a7bcbccorignewd1eecipf20gy-gencatlg  2ddccBKn0  c20946d20946  00102ddc4070aEGSTLbEGSTLd2025-07-01eGift - Samuel Yonas 2025l0o227.9107 Gie 2021p22727r2025-07-01 13:55:30w2025-07-01yBK
