γάρ (G1063) ибо. Частица используется для ввода доказательства. Связь между ст. 25 и 26 следующая: Раав была оправдана своими делами, она не могла быть оправдана иначе, потому что вера без дел мертва. Следовательно, предполагается, что Раав верила (Dibelius).
πνεύμα (G4151) дух, дыхание. Это жизненный принцип, вдыхающий жизнь в тело (Ropes). Мертвая вера подобна трупу, поэтому не может спасать (Mussner).
