"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."
