The Epistle of James raises particular historical problems about the origins of Christianity and its relation to contemporary Judaism. This text contextualizes the Epistle of James within the canon of Scripture and analyzes the historical context of James. The Epistle of James includes a considerable range of types of material, aphorisms, parabolic sayings, prophetic oracles, apocalyptic statements, interpretation of the law and ethical parensis. Richard Bauckham explores the different types of material included in the text and demonstrates how a close appreciation of these literary aspects can enhance understanding of the Epistle.

Industry Reviews

It is refreshing to see a biblical scholar who is willing to address theological and social problems so explicitly in his work and who can do so in such a competent manner... this is an important contribution to the study of the letter of James and merits the attention of scholars working in the field... [It] will appeal to a wide variety of readers, from those in ministry to people with a general interest in biblical studuies.
