Bible Note: Dear Ed, I have tried to outline the book of James a number of times. I never succeeded to any degree of satisfaction. Nor have I seen anyone else do a better job. It finally dawned on me that James, unlike the other books in the NT, is a wisdom book. Its five chapters cover a number of topics. Forgive me for being obtuse, but I cannot summarize James into a single aphorism. Ecclesiastes I can do; but not the book of James. Consequently, to answer your query, I will need you to put a bit more effort in framing your question. As I have often said here on this forum, the better you phrase a question, the better we can answer it. Also, let me know if you want an answer that I truly believe is Biblically orthodox, or if you want me to answer it in a way that will satisfy your own views. I can probably take a stab at the latter, but I can really only be held responsible for my own convictions. Finally, is this one of those things like an angry student shouting "But.. but... but..." or are you saying that I should have not apologized or are you contesting something more foundational. I'll do my best. In Him, Doc |
