James 2:6 - Forerunner Commentary

James 2:6

4 have you not¹ shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?

5 Listen, my beloved brethren: ^aHas God not chosen the poor of this world to be ^brich in faith and heirs of the kingdom ^cwhich He promised to those who love Him?

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.
