James 4:5

While I agree that God's jealousy for his people is expressed in numerous
places, I wonder whether there are other examples where authors combine
'general senses' in ways similar to what Alford purports that James has
done.

Being in the middle of a move I do not have access to all my reference
materials.  Are there modern scholars who agree with this view?  Based on
what I have read, I do not recall anyone taking up this line in more modern
times.
