orthjbc James:1:19-27
orthjbc@James:1:19 @ Have da'as of this, my beloved Achim b'Moshiach. Let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to ka'as (note:)anger(:note).[Mishle strkjv@10:19]
orthjbc@James:1:20 @ For the ka'as haBnei Adam does not accomplish the Tzikat Hashem.
orthjbc@James:1:21 @ Therefore, having put away all filthiness and what remains of resha (note:)wickedness(:note) in shiflut lowliness and meekness receive the implanted Dvar Hashem being able to save your nefashot
orthjbc@James:1:22 @ Now be Shomrei HaDavar Hashem and not Shomei HaDavar only, thereby causing yourselves to fall under remiyah (note:)deceit, deception(:note).
orthjbc@James:1:23 @ Because if anyone is Shomei HaDavar and not Shomrei HaDavar, this one is like a man looking at his ponum in a mirror,
orthjbc@James:1:24 @ for he observed himself and has gone away and immediately forgot what he looked like.
orthjbc@James:1:25 @ But the one having peered into the Torah haShleimah, the Torah HaCherut, and there remaining entranced, not as a forgetful listener but one who is shomer mitzvot and goes into action--this one will have a beracha on his head in all his acts. [Tehillim strkjv@19:7]
orthjbc@James:1:26 @ If anyone considers himself to be one of the Charedim (note:)Orthodox, G-d-fearing Jewish religious ones(:note), yet has lashon hora and does not bridle his tongue but instead causes his lev to fall under remiyah deceit, this one's piety is worthless. [Tehillim strkjv@34:13; strkjv@39:1; strkjv@141:3]
orthjbc@James:1:27 @ Avodas Kodesh that is tehorah (note:)pure(:note) and tamimah unblemished before Elohim HaAv is this: to visit yetomim orphans and almanot widows in their tzoros and to be shomer against the defilement of the Olam Hazeh. [Devarim strkjv@14:29; Iyov strkjv@31:16,17,21; Tehillim strkjv@146:9; Yeshayah strkjv@1:17,23]
