Yakobus 2:7

2:7 Do they not blaspheme the good name of the one you belong to? ¹ 

Yakobus 3:11

3:11 A spring does not pour out fresh water and bitter water from the same opening, does it?

[2:7]  ¹ tn Grk “that was invoked over you,” referring to their baptism in which they confessed their faith in Christ and were pronounced to be his own. To have the Lord’s name “named over them” is OT imagery for the Lord’s ownership of his people (cf. 2 Chr 7:14; Amos 9:12; Isa 63:19; Jer 14:9; 15:16; Dan 9:19; Acts 15:17).
