Scot McKnight

"Here is a theologically rich and literarily sensitive exposition
of the plain meaning of 1 Peter. Joel Green has proven himself to
be one of this generation's top expositors of Scripture because he
lucidly explains a text, keeps his finger on the pulse of the
latest scholarship, but does so in a way that keeps Scripture at
the forefront." William J. Abraham
-- Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University
"Joel Green has delivered a splendid commentary on 1 Peter. All who
care about a rich theological reading of scripture will benefit
from working through this lucid and multifaceted volume." Peter H.
Davids
-- St. Stephen's University, New Brunswick
"Thoroughly conversant with the exegetical discussion of 1 Peter
and the sociocultural world of the first century, Joel Green
manages to keep from getting bogged down in the details -- although
he does not ignore them -- in order to draw out the theological
implications of the text of 1 Peter in a way that is a wonder to
behold. . . This work is surely a significant contribution not just
to the study of 1 Peter but also to Christian theological
reflection. It will be difficult after this to write a commentary
on 1 Peter in the traditional manner. I warmly commend this
commentary."
