James wrote his letter to "the twelve tribes that are scattered about", literally the ones in "the ones in the dispersion" James 1:1. He here addresses the spiritual "brothers", those who hold to "the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ", primarily those living beyond Palestine. (1:2; 2:1, 7: 5:7 ). James' purpose in writing seems to have been two-fold: (1) to exhort his fellow believers to display faith and endurance amid their trials, and (2) to warn them against sin resulting in divine disapproval.
