NBST 515 Exam 3


Heretical group that appears to have had a high view of James during the second century.

- Gnostics


Whether or not James emphasized the ritual matters of the law and how this issue may relate
to the question of authorship.

- Does not - points to a late time of composition and a different author, for James is
elsewhere known to have been legalistic in piety.


Major problem with the "some other James" view.

- The authority and author - how would they have authority if not a known James?


Major arguments in favor of the traditional view of authorship of James.

- Beginning reference (1:1) suggests that this James was a person with recognition and
authority, writer shows evidence of being Jew (5:7), verbal similarities to Acts 15, man
reflected comports well with brother of Jesus as he is demonstrated in rest of NT.


Why James was most likely not written earlier than 42 AD or later than 49 AD.

- Must be written after he became prominent leader in Jerusalem church (after 41 or 42), and
before Gospels (50s) were written due to a knowledge of Jesus that does not seem to directly
stem from a reading of the Gospels, and before the Jerusalem Council as well as Paul's letters
(personal knowledge).


Whether James was most likely written to Christians who were Jewish or Gentile.

- Jewish Christians


Whether James was most likely written to Christians in his immediate vicinity, or to those living
at a distance.

,- Distance - diaspora.


Whether James was written in response to a specific set of circumstances or if it was more of a
general letter.

- General - specific individuals but no specific situation.


The type of literature that many contemporary scholars believe to be similar to that of James.

- Letter - protreptic literature, advocates true over false.


What is missing from the end of James that makes the epistle unconventional?

- No formal epistolary closing.


Those addressed in the James' opening.

- 12 tribes of the dispersion.


The OT figures who are cited as examples in James 2 to support the premise that faith is useless
without accompanying works.

- Abraham and Rahab.


The Roman Catholic sacraments that find their support in James 5:13-18. - Confession and the
last unction

- person anointed with oil on his deathbed.


Whether or not 1 Peter was widely recognized as an apostolic writing in the early church.

- Yes

Basic relationship between Peter and Paul according to those such as F. C. Baur who espoused
Hegelian philosophy.

- At odds - Peter clung to old Jewish form while Paul clung to Hellenistic form.

, The identity of "the first clear evidence for the knowledge of 1 Peter"

- 2 Peter


Early-second century church father living in Asia Minor who cited 1 Peter in his writings.

- Polycarp


The first extant citation naming Peter as the author of 1 Peter

- Irenaeus


The four primary arguments based on internal evidence that are typically used to reject the
authenticity of 1 Peter and how those who affirm authenticity have responded to these
charges.

- Greek is better than expected, contents suggest time later than Peter's life, dependence on
Paul thus needed a later date, geographical regions address were not part of his ministry.
Response: how well written is the letter? Second stance on timing reads too deeply into the
text and suggests state-sanctioned persecution.


The individual cited in 1 Peter 5:12 who likely served as the letter carrier?

- Silas


Likely date of 1 Peter according to those who reject Petrine authorship.

- 81-86.


Primary evidence that points to the mid- to late-60s as the probable date of composition for 1
Peter.

- Reference to Rome in 1 Peter 5:13 - known that Peter was likely in Rome from mid to late
60s.

The most probable location of the "Babylon" mentioned in 1 Pet. 5:13

- Rome
