2. Because of the tongue, it seems as if James is discouraging people from becoming teachers of the word.
Why?
James begins with an abrupt and somewhat surprising command: My brethren, be not many masters.
Moffatt’s translation expresses the true meaning: “My brothers, do not crowd in to be teachers.”
Williams puts it, “Many of you, my brothers, should avoid becoming teachers.”
(Manton, thinking that a statement discouraging the taking up of the work of teaching is contrary to the tenor of the New Testament, rejects the view that “master” means teacher

James explains that the mature man, the man who gains mastery over his tongue, is able also to bridle the whole body.
That is to say, since the tongue is the most difficult member of our bodies to control, one’s ability to control his tongue implies control over the whole body.
“The tongue is the hinge on which everything in the personality turns”
James 3:3-
A horse is naturally wild.
It is controlled by a small bit in the mouth.
The rider pulls on the reins and control the whole body of the horse.
2. The second illustration is about about a ship and how it is controlled by a small rudder.
a.
The tongue is a small part of the body, but it control us.

James 3
gue, is able also to bridle the whole body.
That is to say, since the tongue is the most difficult member of our bodies to control, one’s ability to control his tongue implies control over the whole body.
“The tongue is the hinge on which everything in the personality turns” (Baird, p. 27).
On not sinning with the tongue, Manton comments: “He that can do that, can do anything in Christianity” (p.
275).
