 All these principles —the value of the name of Jesus, {v.7} —the essence of the law as Christ presented it, {v.8} —and the law of liberty {James 1:25} are brought forward to test the reality of their professed faith. (James 2 by J.N. Darby)
 The great religious profession of the day is thus put to the test. How does it regard the world? How does it treat believers? Above all, what value does it set upon the Name of Christ? (The Proof of Faith: James 2 by H. Smith)
 This seems to indicate that, when James wrote, the name Christian had traveled from Antioch where first it was coined (Acts 11:26) to Jerusalem.
