In this commentary, Ruth Anne Reese offers a multi-disciplinary
study of 1 Peter that builds on contemporary scholarship and
research methods. She explores the relationship of the letter to
the Old Testament, as reflected in the themes of exodus, exile,
suffering, and glory. Integrating sociological analysis, she offers
insights into the social situation of the letter's audience that
have grown out of post-colonial and empire criticism. Reese also
explores the themes of majority-minority relationships,
non-retaliation, and ethical living. Her study reveals a more
subversive character to 1 Peter than is often posited. Written in
an accessible style, Reese's commentary provides overviews of
important scholarly questions and points readers to a range of
potential answers to those questions. It also features a 'Closer
Look' section on a significant topic in each passage, as well as
'Bridging the Horizon' sections that connect the ancient context of
1 Peter with the contemporary world.
