The Proverbs of the New Testament
A complete verse-by-verse KJV commentary on the Book of James — all 108 verses, every chapter, no shortcuts. King James Bible only.
“If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.” — James 1:5 (KJV)
The Book of James has been called the Proverbs of the New Testament for centuries. This is the commentary that takes the pairing seriously.
Written by the Lord’s own half-brother to the twelve tribes scattered abroad, James gathers everything Solomon taught — the tongue, the rich man, the fool, patience, prayer, the fear of the LORD — and preaches it in five urgent chapters. Faith that does not move is not faith. Wisdom that will not work is not wisdom.
James: Wisdom from my LORD walks through all 108 verses — every verse, every chapter, no shortcuts — using the King James Bible as the sole authority. Rightly divided, practically applied, and constantly cross-referenced to the book of Proverbs that James grew up on.
All 108 verses across five chapters, opened one at a time — nothing softened, nothing skipped.
The Authorized King James Bible as the sole authority — rightly divided and practically applied.
James preaches what Solomon wrote. Every theme is tied back to the Proverbs he grew up on.
“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
James 1:22 KJV
James: Wisdom from my LORD is the New Testament companion to Proverbs: Wisdom from the KING — the same verse-by-verse, KJV-only approach across all 31 chapters of Proverbs.
