Santiago 1:24 Meaning and Commentary

James 1:24

For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way
He takes a slight glance of himself, and departs:

and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was;
he forgets either his spots, blemishes, and imperfections; or his comeliness and beauty; the features of his face, be they comely or not: so a bare hearer of the word, who is not concerned to practise what he hears, while he is hearing, he observes some things amiss in himself, and some excellencies in Christ; but, when the discourse is over, he goes his way, and thinks no more of either.

Santiago 1:24 In-Context

22 No solo escuchen la palabra de Dios, tienen que ponerla en práctica. De lo contrario, solamente se engañan a sí mismos.
23 Pues, si escuchas la palabra pero no la obedeces, sería como ver tu cara en un espejo;
24 te ves a ti mismo, luego te alejas y te olvidas cómo eres.
25 Pero si miras atentamente en la ley perfecta que te hace libre y la pones en práctica y no olvidas lo que escuchaste, entonces Dios te bendecirá por tu obediencia.
26 Si afirmas ser religioso pero no controlas tu lengua, te engañas a ti mismo y tu religión no vale nada.
