Description
Résumé:This article proposes rereading the letter of James from the situation of persons who migrate to other countries. To do that we will take up the challenges the letter presents to its addressees living far from Palestine. We will highlight the author's advice in relation to Greco-Roman culture, such as the internal relations within an immigrant community under outside pressure. We will also see that the advice or exhortations are supported by a well-founded theology of the Scriptures.
