Excerpt from The Wisdom of James the JustIn the present day, more than in any past days, the study of the Books of the Bible is needful. Only by such study can we appreciate the continuous and growing message of God's spirit in the Bible. Moved by this conviction, let us study one book -of the Bible - the Epistle of St. James. In doing so, we take up a book, which is not an elaborate treatise, nor an intricate history, it needs no long preliminary study: it is a frank, simple and earnest letter, addressed to his friends by a man of good and strong character.The Revised Version of the Epistle is printed here by permission of the University Presses.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
