James Jarvis, had a major transformation after the loss of his only son, a black reformer Arthur, but later sought to achieve his son’s works of reform towards the community. Arthur’s work impacted his father’s way of life through his point of view when James found his work in the office that Arthur was working in. The transformation in which Jarvis experienced was like no other, for his perspective changed for the better.

The book of James is not very tidy when it comes to fitting into any of the other genres of literature. Some consider it to more of a circular rather than an epistle and it is quite possible that both Paul and Peter had read the Epistle of James, at least there are several coincidences between them.7 Because it was written to such a broad audience and because it contains many references to the Old Testament, James hardly fits into any category very neatly. Therefore, it may be best to see James as a literary circular since it does not address any particular needs at a given moment. James was apparently teaching the victims of the Diaspora.
His brothers were also Apostles but Jude in particular betrayed Jesus. This made James wonder, what will happen to my brother. James was said to be a Jew, but he ended up being christian.

For example, many scholars have suggested that it is the least Christian amongst all of the New Testament writings due to the fact that it only references the name of Jesus twice. This a particular point that I feel needs to be addressed when trying to understand James, and it is a point I will answer further while also trying to present information regarding other possible questions an individual may have while reading
The second argument is that the referral to apostolic teachings (“the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ”) would make the writing be of a late date, which would not be true if the half-brother of Jesus was writing this book. The third, and final argument is that Jude did not state he is the brother of Jesus. Jude’s role as ‘a servant of Christ’ gave his letter more authority than being the ‘brother of Christ.’ None of the arguments against Jude, the brother of James, the half-brother of Jesus are strong enough not believe the claim made in scripture.
