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.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003e Suggested reading\u003cbr\u003e Commentary.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Theology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Theology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Theology%20%5BHRLB%5D%22\"\u003eHRLB\u003c\/a\u003e], Biblical commentaries [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Biblical commentaries\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Biblical%20commentaries%20%5BHRCG1%5D%22\"\u003eHRCG1\u003c\/a\u003e], New Testaments [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on New Testaments\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22New%20Testaments%20%5BHRCF2%5D%22\"\u003eHRCF2\u003c\/a\u003e], History of religion [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History of religion\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20of%20religion%20%5BHRAX%5D%22\"\u003eHRAX\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46005679685912,"sku":"9781107137080","price":83.89,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107137080i_0fe09bc2-c89c-4a6a-8f2c-7c4d8922e20a.jpg?v=1691362216","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/1-peter-hardback-9781107137080","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
