Exegesis

The verse opens with the emphatic subject humeis {ὑμεῖς | hu-meîs} ‘you’, followed by the conjunction de {δὲ | dè} ‘but’ and the aorist verb etimasate {ἠτιμάσατε | ē-ti-má-sa-te} ‘you dishonored’, forming a direct subject–verb–object sequence that accentuates the action toward ton ptochon {τὸν πτωχόν | tón ptō-khón} ‘the poor person’.

In contextJames 2:6

But you have dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich men the ones who oppress you and who drag you into courts ?
