The final addition to L. A. Mott's 12-volume Thinking Through the Bible series, this commentary displays his passion for accuracy in understanding the scriptures. It will be a delight to lovers of language. In some ways it is a lexicon of every significant word in these epistles — because understanding the terms Peter used is the foundation for understanding his message.
If hearing terms like “aorist participle” and “dative of means” makes you want to run screaming from the room, this may not be the commentary for you. But if you realize how such technical differences in construction can impact the meaning of passages, in nuanced and sometimes major ways — you may find Thinking Through First and Second Peter to be a valuable resource.
As a member of the church of Christ, he also offers a refreshing perspective not commonly found among Protestant or Catholic commentators.
Why study 1 & 2 Peter?
1 Peter encourages suffering Christians to stand firm in faith, live holy lives, and find hope in Christ. Peter reminds them of their identity as God’s chosen people, calling believers to endure trials with grace, trusting God’s purposes and future glory.
2 Peter urges believers to grow in faith, resist false teachers, and remember Christ’s promised return. The letter stresses perseverance, knowledge, and godliness in a world of deception and doubt.
Read an excerpt here, in which Mott makes a convincing argument that Peter intended to represent Jesus as "our God" in 2 Peter 1:1.
