Thedate of 1 Peter is linked with the issue of authorship. Those who reject Peter as the author typically date the letter in the reign of Domitian (A.D. 81–96) or Trajan (98–117).Since there are good grounds for holding to Petrine authorship, the letter probably should be dated during the reign of Nero (A.D. 54–68).The reference to Babylon in 1 Peter 5:13 is almost

3 To grow solid through suffering, trust the sovereign Lord (5:10-11). Trust is implicit in 5:6-7, is stated explicitly in 5:9 (be “firm in your faith”), and is strongly implicit in 5:10-11. Peter is saying, “God hasn’t forgotten you in your trial. He is the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ in the first

1Peter 5:6-7. 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. 7 Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Read Chapter Compare.

I am an apostle, and you are chosen, according to the fore-knowledge of God, through the consecration of the Spirit, for obedience and to be

1 Humility in service of one another. " Yea, all of you gird yourselves with humility, to serve one another: for God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble." Peter now turns to all of them, i.e. both the elders and the younger (people), and with a certain emphasis sums up their duties in humility.

Commentaryon 1 Peter 5:5-9 (Read 1 Peter 5:5-9) Humility preserves peace and order in all Christian churches and societies; pride disturbs them. Where God gives grace to be humble, he will give wisdom, faith, and holiness. To be humble, and subject to our reconciled God, will bring greater comfort to the soul than the gratification of pride

1Peter 5:12. By Silvanus — The person probably of that name, whom St. Paul united with himself in writing the epistles to the Thessalonians, namely, Silas, who is called a chief man among the brethren, and a prophet, Acts 15:32.Being Paul’s constant companion in travel after the defection of John Mark, he, no doubt, assisted in planting churches in Galatia,

Thisverse is a quote from Psalm 55:22. First Peter 5:7 is one of the most popular verses in the Bible, yet we often take this verse out of its context. Note that the word “casting” is a participle making it dependent upon the previous statement in verse six. “Casting” is not a command but the means of how we humble ourselves ( 1 Pe 5:6 ).

^{Althoughthe first verse of chapter one identifies the author of this epistle as “Peter,” there is considerable debate among scholars concerning who wrote 1 Peter. 1 We know that he was an eyewitness of the sufferings of Jesus (1Pet 5:1) and was most likely residing in Rome when he wrote the letter (1Pet 5:13; “Babylon” being a cryptic reference to Rome), both}

Andrew Peter’s brother, brought him to Christ (John 1:40–42). He was married, and his wife apparently accompanied him in his ministry (Mark 1:29–31; 1 Cor. 9:5). Peter was called to follow Christ in His early ministry (Mark 1:16, 17), and was later appointed to apostleship (Matt. 10:2; Mark 3:14–16).
