"My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality."
— James 2:1 (World English Bible)
Surrounding context
My brothers, don’t hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ of glory with partiality.
For if a man with a gold ring, in fine clothing, comes into your synagogue, and a poor man in filthy clothing also comes in;
and you pay special attention to him who wears the fine clothing, and say, “Sit here in a good place”; and you tell the poor man, “Stand there,” or “Sit by my footstool”;
haven’t you shown partiality among yourselves, and become judges with evil thoughts?
