Giacomo 1:24

Listen to Giacomo 1:24
24 e quando s’è mirato se ne va, e subito dimentica qual era.

Giacomo 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.

Giacomo 1:24 In-Context

22 Ma siate facitori della Parola e non soltanto uditori, illudendo voi stessi.
23 Perché, se uno è uditore della Parola e non facitore, è simile a un uomo che mira la sua natural faccia in uno specchio;
24 e quando s’è mirato se ne va, e subito dimentica qual era.
25 Ma chi riguarda bene addentro nella legge perfetta, che è la legge della libertà, e persevera, questi, non essendo un uditore dimentichevole ma facitore dell’opera, sarà beato nel suo operare.
26 Se uno pensa d’esser religioso, e non tiene a freno la sua lingua ma seduce il cuor suo, la religione di quel tale è vana.
