From the publisher

Despite its reputation as an outlier, James resonates with the whole canon of the Bible. This letter refracts the Old Testament through Jesus's teachings in order to urge believers to maturity in the Lord. Crowe highlights James's biblical-theological contributions to Christology, faith and works, the kingdom of God, the law, perfection and hypocrisy, and eschatology.
