James 2:8 - Forerunner Commentary

James 2:8

6 But ^ayou have dishonored the poor man. Do not the rich oppress you ^band drag you into the courts?

7 Do they not blaspheme that noble name by which you are ^acalled?

8 If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, ^a“You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well;

9 but if you¹ show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as ^atransgressors.

10 For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet ^astumble in one point, ^bhe is guilty of all.
