From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   James, Epistle of
      (1.) Author of, was James the Less, the Lord's brother, one of
      the twelve apostles. He was one of the three pillars of the
      Church (Gal. 2:9).
     
         (2.) It was addressed to the Jews of the dispersion, "the
      twelve tribes scattered abroad."
     
         (3.) The place and time of the writing of the epistle were
      Jerusalem, where James was residing, and, from internal
      evidence, the period between Paul's two imprisonments at Rome,
      probably about A.D. 62.
     
         (4.) The object of the writer was to enforce the practical
      duties of the Christian life. "The Jewish vices against which he
      warns them are, formalism, which made the service of God consist
      in washings and outward ceremonies, whereas he reminds them
      (1:27) that it consists rather in active love and purity;
      fanaticism, which, under the cloak of religious zeal, was
      tearing Jerusalem in pieces (1:20); fatalism, which threw its
      sins on God (1:13); meanness, which crouched before the rich
      (2:2); falsehood, which had made words and oaths play-things
      (3:2-12); partisanship (3:14); evil speaking (4:11); boasting
      (4:16); oppression (5:4). The great lesson which he teaches them
      as Christians is patience, patience in trial (1:2), patience in
      good works (1:22-25), patience under provocation (3:17),
      patience under oppression (5:7), patience under persecution
      (5:10); and the ground of their patience is that the coming of
      the Lord draweth nigh, which is to right all wrong (5:8)."
     
         "Justification by works," which James contends for, is
      justification before man, the justification of our profession of
      faith by a consistent life. Paul contends for the doctrine of
      "justification by faith;" but that is justification before God,
      a being regarded and accepted as just by virtue of the
      righteousness of Christ, which is received by faith.
