Description
1 Peter is a thought-provoking commentary that offers a fresh perspective on this New Testament letter. Ruth Anne Reese's study builds on contemporary scholarship and research methods, exploring the relationship between 1 Peter and the Old Testament, as well as the social situation of its ancient audience.
Reese's analysis reveals a more subversive character to 1 Peter than is often assumed, and sheds new light on themes such as majority-minority relationships, non-retaliation, and ethical living. This commentary provides overviews of important scholarly questions and points readers to a range of potential answers.
With its accessible style and features such as 'Closer Look' sections and 'Bridging the Horizon' sections, this commentary is an ideal resource for anyone seeking to understand 1 Peter in its historical and contemporary context.
