我们在《雅各书》第二章两次读到“没有行为的信心是死的”（雅2:20，26）。还有一次在雅各书2:17我们读到“信心若没有行为就是死的”。很多参考书作者聚焦死这个词。他们错误地认为雅各的意思是信心没有行为就不是信心。但是死在上下文中意思是没有益处。注意在14节开始和16节结尾的这个表达“这有什么益处？”之后雅各说，“这样，信心若没有行为就是死的/没有益处的”（雅2:17）。 更多的关于信心没有行为就是死的这一表述见这篇文章。 大家没有关注这个表述的第一部分。什么是没有行为的信心？ 在第二章雅各好几次告诉我们这个表达的意思。 在第十七节雅各说，没有行为的信就是 “本身（by itself）” 的信。在第 20 节和第 26 节中，他重复了 “没有行为的信 ”这一表述。 信心本身意思是单独的信心（faith alone）。在拉丁文中，就是sola fide。 在第 12 节和第 15-16 节中，没有行为的信心指的是光说不做的人。 在第 13 节和第 15-16 节中，表达的是对需要帮助的人毫不怜悯。 在第 14 节中，没有行为的信心是指一个人相信《圣经》的原则，但却没有将该原则付诸实践的行为。 […]

Дважды во 2 главе Послания Иакова мы читаем: “Вера без дел мертва” (Иак 2:20; 26). И еще раз мы читаем: “вера, если не имеет дел, мертва сама по себе.” (Иак […]

Makalawa sa Santiago 2 nabasa natin: “Ang pananampalatayang walang gawa ay patay” (San 2:20, 26). At minsan nabasa natin, “Gayon din naman ang pananampalataya na walang mga gawa, ay patay […]
