| Sumario: | James confronts the exploitive wealthy; it also opposes Pauline hybridity. K. Jason Coker argues that postcolonial perspectives allow us to understand how these themes converge in the letter. James opposes the exploitation of the Roman Empire and a peculiar Pauline form of hybridity that compromises with it, refutes Roman cultural practices--such as the patronage system and economic practices--that threaten the identity of the letter's recipients, and condemns those who would transgress the boundaries between purity and impurity, God and "world".
