<p>2:10 <i>For whoever shall keep the whole law and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of breaking all of it- As</i> with so much in James, this seems almost too idealistic. But James drives the importance of it home: &quot;For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, he is guilty of all&quot; (v.10). This is identical reasoning to Gal. 3:10-13, where Paul is arguing that the Galatians should resist the inroads of the Judaizers and not return to the Law- therefore suggesting that there was an identical situation amongst James' readers, as there probably was in nearly every first century ecclesia, especially the Jewish-dominated ones.</p>
