orthjbc James:4:1-12

orthjbc@James:4:1 @ From where do milchamot (note:)wars(:note) come? What is their goirem driving force? And from where come fights among you? Is it not from here, from the ta'avot of you warring in your evarim members?

orthjbc@James:4:2 @ You lust for something and you do not have it; you kill and you envy and you are not able to obtain. You get involved in machalokot (note:)divisions of dissension(:note) and fights. You do not have because you fail to daven with your request.

orthjbc@James:4:3 @ Or you make techinot (note:)petitions(:note) and you do not receive, because you ask wrongly, that on the ta'avot of you you may spend what you receive. [Tehillim strkjv@18:41; strkjv@66:18]

orthjbc@James:4:4 @ No'afim (note:)Adulterers(:note) and mena'afot Adultresses! Do you not have da'as that shaichus closeness, friendship with the Olam Hazeh is eyvah im HASHEM? Therefore, whoever chooses to make the Olam Hazeh his Chavrusa Study Partner is made an Oyev Enemy of Hashem. [Yeshayah strkjv@54:4; Yirmeyah strkjv@3:20; Hoshea strkjv@2:2-5; strkjv@3:1; strkjv@9:1]

orthjbc@James:4:5 @ Or do you think that in vain the Kitvei Hakodesh attests that Hashem yearns jealously over the Ruach Hakodesh He causes to dwell in us?

orthjbc@James:4:6 @ But He gives all the more Chen v'Chesed! Therefore it says, "Hashem LALETZIM HU YALITZ V'LA'ANAVIM YITEN CHEN (note:)"Hashem opposes the proud mocker but gives grace to the humble" [Mishle strkjv@3:34](:note).

orthjbc@James:4:7 @ Submit yourselves in mishma'at (note:)obedience(:note) to Hashem. Resist Hasatan. And he will flee from you.

orthjbc@James:4:8 @ Draw near to Hashem and Hashem will draw near to you. Cleanse your yadayim (note:)hands(:note), you chote'im sinners! And purify your levavot, you anashim of double mind! [Tehillim strkjv@73:28; Zecharyah strkjv@1:3; Malachi strkjv@3:7; Yeshayah strkjv@1:16; Tehillim strkjv@24:4; strkjv@119:113; Yirmeyah strkjv@4:14]

orthjbc@James:4:9 @ Lament and mourn and weep. Let the sechok (note:)laughter(:note) of you be changed to avelut mourning, and the simcha of you be turned to gloom.

orthjbc@James:4:10 @ Be humbled before Hashem and He will exalt you. [Iyov strkjv@5:11] YOU ARE NOT THE SHOFET OF KOL HA'ARETZ (note:)BERESHIS strkjv@18:25(:note) AND YOU ARE NOT THE SHOFET OF YOUR ACH B'MOSHIACH

orthjbc@James:4:11 @ Do not speak lashon hora against an Ach b'Moshiach. The one speaking against an Ach b'Moshiach or setting himself up as a shofet (note:)judge(:note) of his Ach b'Moshiach speaks against the Torah and sets himself up as shofet of the Torah. Now if the Torah you judge, you are not Shomrei HaTorah but a shofet.

orthjbc@James:4:12 @ One is HaMechokak (note:)Law-Giver(:note) and HaShofet, the One who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you, the one who has set yourself up as the shofet of your re'a neighbor? A WARNING FOR THE BARIMER BOASTER
