Review title: Absolute tripe.
Product review: In his classic _Exegetical Fallacies_ [(Grand Rapids: Baker, 1984), 137], Professor Don Carson has this to say about Hodges' tortured interpretation of James 2: "Perhaps one of the most intriguing--and disturbing--features of Zane C. Hodges's book. . . is that to the best of my knowledge not one significant interpreter of Scripture in the entire history of the church has held to Hodges' interpretation of the passages he treats. That does not necessarily mean Hodges is wrong; but it certainly means he is probably wrong, and it probably means he has not reflected seriously enough on the array of fallacies connected with [reading one's own presuppositions into the biblical text]."Hodges' book is a classic example of agenda-driven exegesis. This is his desperate attempt to explain away the plain meaning of James's epistle. This Hodges MUST attempt to do, because his theology of no-lordship is so seriously at odds with the plain truth of the text of Scripture.
