Description
Der Brief des Jakobus, by Wiard Popkes. THKNT 14. Leipzig: Evangelische Verlagsanstalt, 2001. Pp. xxxviii + 357. 34 [euro]. Having written the monograph Adressaten, Situation und Form des Jakobusbriefes (SBS 125/126; Stuttgart: Katholisches Bibelwerk, 1986) and a series of articles on James, Wiard Popkes now presents a remarkable interpretation of the entire letter in his commentary. The bibliography (pp. xviii-xxxviii), which informs the reader reliably and solidly about essential literature on James up until the year 2000, is followed by a rather broad introduction in which Popkes outlines his reading of the Epistle in a nutshell. The focal point of Popkes's earlier monograph unmistakably leaves its mark here, for his remarks on the situation of the addressees, the letter's form, and the traditions it adapts take up substantial space. Great emphasis is laid especially upon the latter in the course of the entire commentary.
