James wrote to the “twelve tribes in the dispersion.” That is, to the twelve tribes scattered throughout the world.

Other scholars think that James wrote to both Jewish and Gentile Christians because both were scattered because the people persecuted them. That is, he wrote to both the people from the twelve tribes of Israel and the Gentiles who became part of a group called the “people of God.”
