CONCLUDING REMARKS ON THE EPISTLE OF JAMES.
James, the son of Alphaeus, the brother of Jacob, and the near
relation of our Lord, called also James the Less, probably
because he was of lower stature, or younger, than the other
James, the son of Zebedee, is generally allowed to be the writer
of this Epistle; and the few that have doubted this have
assigned very slight reasons for their dissent, and advanced
very weak arguments on the other side. It is recorded in
ecclesiastical history, and the book of the Acts of the Apostles
confirms the fact, that he generally resided at Jerusalem,
superintending the churches in that city, and in the
neighbouring places, to the end of his life, which was
terminated by martyrdom about A.D. 62. This epistle appears to
have been written but a short time before his death; and it is
probable that the sharp rebukes and awful warnings given in it
to his countrymen excited that persecuting rage which terminated
his life. It is styled Catholic, or General, because it was not
addressed to any particular church, but to the Jewish nation
throughout their dispersions. Though its genuineness was
doubted for a considerable time, yet its insertion in the
ancient Syriac version, which was executed at the close of the
first, or the beginning of the second century, and the citation
of, or allusion to it, by Clement of Rome, Hermas, and
Ignatious, and its being quoted by Origen, Jerome, Athanasius,
and most of the subsequent ecclesiastical writers, as well as
its internal evidence, are amply sufficient to prove the point.
