1 Peter

A Commentary

Beschreibung

"Every interpreter of 1 Peter will want this commentary on their shelf" This commentary on 1 Peter features meticulous and comprehensive research and offers a wealth of fresh insights. "Keener has done us all a great service by his careful evaluation of 1 Peter, taking us systematically through all aspects of the letter, not least its disputed authorship. This is a book which will assist anyone seriously interested in coming to grips with this particular epistle." --Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury "Keener employs the massive encyclopedia of ancient Greek and Roman literature, philosophy, and religion from his work on Acts to provide a broader cultural context for words, images, and possible overtones in each phrase." --Pheme Perkins, Boston College "This commentary provides more than just an interpretation of 1 Peter: it is a thorough immersion in its discourse, rhetoric, history, imagery, theology, and meaning potential. I commend this work to any serious student of 1 Peter and beyond." --Shively T. J. Smith, Boston University "Keener presents a wealth of primary sources relevant to the historical, cultural, and lexical background of 1 Peter. Written with clarity from the mind of a scholar and the heart of a pastor, every interpreter of 1 Peter will want this commentary on their shelf." --Karen H. Jobes, Wheaton College (emerita) "Keener's commentary provides wonderful access to both Jewish and Greco-Roman primary sources. An important new resource for students of 1 Peter." --Ruth Anne Reese, Asbury Theological Seminary "Keener's genius is on full display in providing the church and the academy a commentary that is very accessible while engaging with primary and secondary literature and seminal works on Petrine scholarship. This commentary is a must-read for anyone who studies, preaches, teaches, and does research on 1 Peter." --Abson Joseph, Bethel University
