Notes: It is difficult to know precisely the significance of the phrase τροπῆς ἀποσκίασμα. It probably had a technical sense which has been lost, but clearly it is parallel in meaning to παραλλαγή ‘change, alteration’ (58.44: παραλλαγή). In some languages it may be best to translate this expression in RV JAM 1:17 · LV JAM 1:17 · Read together JAM 1:17 as ‘in whom there is no change or variation.’

JAM 1:17: RV JAM 1:17 · LV JAM 1:17 · Read together JAM 1:17
