The name of Jacdbus or Jacob which, after passing through various chances and changes of form, Spanish lago and Portuguese Xayme (pronounced Haytne) and Italian Giaconto and French Jacques and Jamy and Scotch Hamish, has at last dwindled into our monosyllabic James was naturally, as having been borne by the great Patriarch whom Israel claimed as its progenitor, a favourite name among the later Jews In the New Testament we find two, or possibly three, persons who bore it: (i) James the son of Zebedee. (2) James the son of A lphseus. Both of these appear in all the lists of the Twelve A postles. (3) There is a James described as the son of a Mary and the brother of a Joses or Joseph (M att, xxvii. 56, Mark XV. 40), and a comparison of that passage with John xix. 25, defines this Mary as the wife of Clopas (not Cleophas as in the English Version) and possibly also (though the construction is not free from ambiguity) as the sister of our Lord smother. To his name is attached the epithet, not of the less as in the English version, as though it indicated difference in age or position, but of the little, as an It is not without a feeling of regret, that I adopt in this volume the fonn in which the historical associations of the name have entirely disappeared.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the life and writings of James, the brother of Jesus, and explores his complex relationship with both Jesus and the early Christian community. The author carefully examines the different interpretations of James's relationship with Jesus, including the popular theories that James was either a younger brother, a stepbrother, or a cousin of Jesus. The author also considers the historical significance of James as a leader in the early Church, particularly his role in the Council of Jerusalem, which established the acceptance of Gentile converts into Christianity. The book's analysis of James's life and writings sheds light on the early tensions within the nascent Christian faith, particularly the conflict between those who insisted on adhering to Jewish law and those who embraced a more inclusive understanding of faith. Through a detailed analysis of the Epistle of James, the author explores its themes of faith, works, and the practical application of Christian living. The book's insights offer a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics that shaped the early Church and continue to resonate with Christian faith today.
