Description
Summary:The concept of sin belongs to the core topics of the Epistle of James. It is part of its paraenetic intention and is reflected in the letter from theological, anthropological, and noetic perspectives. The epistle’s author not only collects different conventions or ethical admonitions from his environment, he reflects on the anthropological reasons and the theological evaluation of sin as it occurs in the life of a ‘Christian’ community. The article discusses first the textual references to sin in the letter’s contexts, then describes the semantic fields by which the author expresses his views, and thereafter presents a brief view into their tradition-historical contexts in the ancient Jewish and Hellenistic-Roman world. Eventually, a brief side glance to Paul shapes the particular way of thinking about sin in the Epistle of James.
