Commentary on James 5:11

Behold, we count them happy which endure. Ye have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the end of the Lord; that the Lord is very pitiful, and of tender mercy. We count those blessed who endure. Job's perseverance and the Lord's compassion illustrate God's purpose. James highlights God's character: very compassionate (polusplagchnos, πολυσπλαγχνός) and merciful.Reformed teaching on providence emphasizes God's tender mercy even in trials, as Job discovered.
