Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

James 1:7

_ _ For — resumed from “For” in James 1:6.

_ _ that man — such a wavering self-deceiver.

_ _ think — Real faith is something more than a mere thinking or surmise.

_ _ anything — namely, of the things that he prays for: he does receive many things from God, food, raiment, etc., but these are the general gifts of His providence: of the things specially granted in answer to prayer, the waverer shall not receive “anything,” much less wisdom.
