Abstract: "Tromp, Johannes in: JSJ 29,2 (1998) 229: The reference to the divine constancy in Jas. 1:17, is not intended to suggest an ontological immutability, but refers to God's unwavering faithfulness, evidenced by his unremitting provision of good gift's, in particular the heavenly luminaries. The author of Jas., alludes deliberately to the familiar creation motifs of Jewish morning prayer, esp. The Shema' that in essence existed in the Second Temple Period and can more or less be reconstructed from the talmudic literature; compares Josephus, 1QS, and 4Q503."
