Santiago 5:10 Meaning and Commentary

James 5:10

Take, my brethren, the prophets, who have spoken in the
name of the Lord
Men who have been highly honoured of God, with a gift of prophesying, or foretelling things to come; to whom God revealed his secrets, doing nothing without acquainting them with it; and who were sent forth by him, and prophesied in his name what were made known unto them; and yet, though these were his favourites, they suffered much; as cruel mockings, scourgings, imprisonment, famine, nakedness, and death in various shapes; some being stoned, others sawn asunder, and others killed by the sword; all which they endured with incredible patience. And therefore the apostle proposes them to be taken,

for an example suffering affliction, and of patience;
their afflictions were many and great, and yet they were very patient under them; and through faith and patience they went through them, and now inherit the promises; and so are a very proper example and pattern for New Testament saints to follow and copy after.

Santiago 5:10 In-Context

8 Ustedes también deben ser pacientes. Anímense, porque la venida del Señor está cerca.

9 Hermanos, no se quejen unos de otros, o serán juzgados. ¡Pues miren, el Juez ya está a la puerta!

10 Amados hermanos, tomen como ejemplo de paciencia durante el sufrimiento a los profetas que hablaron en nombre del Señor.

11 Honramos en gran manera a quienes resisten con firmeza en tiempo de dolor. Por ejemplo, han oído hablar de Job, un hombre de gran perseverancia. Pueden ver cómo al final el Señor fue bueno con él, porque el Señor está lleno de ternura y misericordia.

12 Pero sobre todo, hermanos míos, nunca juren por el cielo ni por la tierra ni por ninguna otra cosa. Simplemente digan «sí» o «no», para que no pequen y sean condenados.
