Abstract

The themes of healing and turning back the wayward, which come together in Jas 5.13-20, were traditionally associated. They appear side by side not only in the Tanak but also in later Jewish and Christian prayer traditions that show engagement with Ezek. 32—33. The final verses of James also reflect the language of those chapters of Ezekiel and probably are influenced by a very primitive church order.
