* **by favoring certain people ** - "giving special treatment" or "being nicer to" or "giving more honor to"
* **If someone…** - James starts a hypothetical situation that continues to the end of verse 4. He describes a situation where the believers might give more honor to a rich person than a poor person. (See: [[en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_hypo]])
* **wearing gold rings and fine clothes ** - "dressed like a wealthy person"
* **sit here in a nice place ** - "sit in this place of honor"

* **are you not making judgments among yourselves, and becoming judges with evil thoughts ** - James is using a rhetorical question to teach and possibly scold his readers.
