Synopsis
Excerpt from The Catholic Epistle of St. James: A Revised Text; With Translation, Introduction, and Notes, Critical and Exegetical
Opinion, almost universal, has excluded St. James, the son of Zebedee, from the authorship of this Epistle: the general verdict may be summed up in one word, It is impossible. Whether this sentence is arrived at on enlightened and sufficient grounds is a grave question. However that may be, the honour of penning this Epistle has been conferred upon another James, who is called the. Brother of the Lord, and was the Bishop of Jerusalem, although no small controversy has arisen as to his identity with James the Less, or rather the Little, the son of Alphaeus, one of the twelve Apostles.
It will be sufficient for us to distinguish him at pre sent from James the Elder, as he has been called, the brother of John and the son of Zebedee, who was one of the first called among the Apostles and one of the favoured three among them.
In entering upon the question of the authorship of this Epistle, it is necessary to premise that the whole subject is exceedingly unsettled, and that the ordinary opinion rests on very weak and uncertain foundations.
