This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
But be ye doers of the word; the same as doers of the work, Jam_1:25, namely, which the word prescribes; q.d. Receive the word by faith into your hearts, and bring forth the fruit of it in your lives: see Luk_11:28 Joh_13:17.
And not hearers only; not contenting yourselves with a bare hearing the word, though it have no influence upon you.
Deceiving your own selves; playing the sophisters with, or putting a fallacy upon, yourselves; particularly, persuading yourselves into a good opinion of your state, merely because of your being hearers of the word, Mat_7:21.
