Volume 1 of the ICC commentary on 1 Peter, demonstrating the letter's contribution to early Christianity's development.
The first volume in Travis B. Williams’ and David G. Horrell’s magisterial ICC commentary on first Peter.
Williams and Horrell bring together all the relevant aids to exegesis - linguistic, textual, archaeological, historical, literary, and theological - to help the reader understand the letter. This first volume presents introductory maps, and a comprehensive introduction covering aspects such as genre, canonicity, early citations of the letter, and its theology and influence. A particular feature of the introduction is that each section is preceded by an initial bibliography. The exegesis also provides for each passage sections on bibliography, text-criticism, literary introduction, detailed exegesis, and overall summary.
Following the introduction volume 1 provides commentary up to 2.10, the conclusion of the first major section of the letter.
No student of First Peter should be without it, and any biblical scholar would benefit from imitating its methodological thoughtfulness, careful philological analysis, broad historical contextualization, and sensitivity to profound and pressing questions of significance. * Biblica *
