faith, works of law, active faith, justification, rabbinical controversyAbstract
The article presents a short intertextual analysis of Old Testament quotations and allusions in Jas 2: 14-26 and in Rom 4: 1-8. Has been demonstrated the intertextual connection between Jas 2 :14-26 and Rom 4: 1-8, taking into account the closer and distant contexts of both passages with application of approach of rabbinic controversy to the analysis of the text of Jas 2: 14-26. The hermeneutical approach has demonstrated two distinct starting points for Paul and James' argumentation, which ultimately lead to commune conclusion and point of arrival – faith in Christ is organically called to be active in the works of love and mercy.
