Where is the Bible verse about examining yourself in the mirror?

Answer 1

In the King James version,

In The Bible the word - mirror - does not appear at all. The concept of a mirror is generally rendered as "a glass".

The word - examining - does not appear in a verse with the word "glass". It only appears once and that is in this verse

• Act 24:8 Commanding his accusers to come unto thee: by examining of whom thyself mayest take knowledge of all these things, whereof we accuse him.

The verse which is probably being enquired about is

• Jam 1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:

Answer 2

James 1:23-27

23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer,c this one is like a man looking at his own face* in a mirror. 24 For he looks at himself, and he goes away and immediately forgets what sort of person he is. 25 But the one who peers into the perfect lawd that belongs to freedom and continues in it has become, not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work; and he will be happy in what he does.
