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.
Ruth Reese is Beeson Chair of Biblical Studies and Professor of New Testament at Asbury Theological Seminary. She is the author of Writing Jude: The Reader, the Text, and the Author in Constructs of Power and Desire and 2 Peter and Jude.
