Tiago 2

Clement of Rome · Comentário Patrístico (catena)

Tiago 2:21

Let us cleave then to His blessing, and consider what are the means of possessing it. Let us think over the things which have taken place from the beginning. For what reason was our father Abraham blessed? Was it not because he wrought righteousness and truth through faith? Isaac, [James 2:21] with perfect confidence, as if knowing what was to happen, cheerfully yielded himself as a sacrifice. [Genesis 22:6-10] Jacob, through reason of his brother, went forth with humility from his own land, and came to Laban and served him; and there was given to him the sceptre of the twelve tribes of Israel. — Letter to the Corinthians (Clement)

Tiago 2:23

Abraham, who was called the friend of God, proved himself faithful by becoming obedient to the words of God. — LETTER TO THE CORINTHIANS 10.1
