The epillle of James, however, was received into the facred canon very early, as is evident from its being tranflated into Syriac, at the fame time, with the firft epiftles of Peter and of John. The evidence, that thefe three epif'tles were written by apof'tles, no doubt, was the reafon why they were fo early adopted as canonical.
