Matthew Poole and continuators on James 2:4

4 Are ye not then partial in your selves , and are become judges of evil thoughts ?

Either, are ye not judged in your selves, convicted by your own Consciences of partiality, and accepting Mens persons, or, have ye not made a difference? viz. out of a corrupt affection rather than a right judgment; and then it falls in with our Translation, are ye not partial? the Greek word is used in this sence, Acts 15.9. Iude 22.

i. e. Judges that have evil Thoughts, or are evil affected, q. d. you evidence the corruptness of your affections by your thus perversely judging.
