Santiago 1:20 Meaning and Commentary

James 1:20

For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
] This is so far from engaging persons to do that which is right and acceptable in the sight of God, that it puts them upon doing that which is evil. The Alexandrian copy reads, "with the wrath of men do not work the righteousness of God"; do not attend upon the word and ordinances of God with a wrathful spirit. Compare, with this, ( 1 Timothy 2:8 ) .

Santiago 1:20 In-Context

18 El, de su voluntad nos ha engendrado por la palabra de verdad, para que seamos primicias de sus criaturas.
19 Por esto, mis amados hermanos, todo hombre sea pronto para oir, tardío para hablar, tardío para airarse:
20 Porque la ira del hombre no obra la justicia de Dios.
21 Por lo cual, dejando toda inmundicia y superfluidad de malicia, recibid con mansedumbre la palabra ingerida, la cual puede hacer salvas vuestras almas.
22 Mas sed hacedores de la palabra, y no tan solamente oidores, engañándoos á vosotros mismos.
