These commentaries are designed to help the reader of the Bible
understand what the text says and what it means. The Introduction
to each book gives a concise but thorough treatment of its
authorship, date, original setting and purpose. Following a
structural Analysis, the Commentary takes the book section by
section, drawing out its main themes, and also comments on
individual verses and problems of interpretation. Additional Notes
provide fuller discussion of particular difficulties. In the new
New Testament volumes, the commentary on each section of the text
is structured under three headings: Context, Comment and Theology.
The goal is to explain the true meaning of the Bible and make its
message plain.JAMESThe letter of James has often been defined in
terms of moral earnestness, repentance and consistent social
action, leading many to argue that it is not theological. This
separation between theology and practice, Douglas J. Moo observes,
can all too easily lead people to read Scripture as a book to be
analysed rather than a message to be obeyed - the very mindset
against which James inveighs. Moo's exposition of these themes
illuminates James's rich letter and its message for us today.
