Exegesis
The comparative particle hos {ὡς | hôs} “as” introduces the predicate nominative parabatai {παραβάται | parabátai} “transgressors,” classifying the subjects according to their legal status. The structure thus moves from a conditional ethical action to its moral assessment and final legal designation, preserving the original’s emphasis on evidence-based condemnation.
In context — James 2:9
But if you show partiality , you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors .
