This study shows that the conflict of the text has more to do with differences of rank than poverty and wealth. The main problem is that the Christian assemblies are acting according to Roman cultural etiquette instead of their Jewish-Christian heritage when a Roman equestrian and a beggar visit the assembly. The members of the assemblies are accused of having become too Roman. From a postcolonial perspective, this is a typical case of hybrid identities. Additional key concepts from postcolonialism, such as diaspora, ‘othering’, naming of oppressors, and binarisms such as coloniser/colonised, centre/margin, honour/shame and power/powerless, are highlighted throughout the study.Biblical Interpretation Series119.ReligionHistoryReligionHistory.227/.9106Mongstad-Kvammen Ingeborg1580179MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910792147603321Toward a postcolonial reading of the Epistle of James3860892UNINA
