Yakobus 1:2
KonteksJoy in Trials
1:2 My brothers and sisters, 1 consider it nothing but joy 2 when you fall into all sorts of trials,
Yakobus 3:16
Konteks3:16 For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice.
Yakobus 4:16
Konteks4:16 But as it is, 3 you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil.
[1:2] 1 tn Grk “brothers,” but the Greek word may be used for “brothers and sisters” or “fellow Christians” as here (cf. BDAG 18 s.v. ἀδελφός 1, where considerable nonbiblical evidence for the plural ἀδελφοί [adelfoi] meaning “brothers and sisters” is cited). Where the plural term is used in direct address, as here, “brothers and sisters” is used; where the term is singular and not direct address (as in v. 9), “believer” is preferred.
