Description
By identifying the theme of 1 Peter as a matter of how the church is to witness responsibly in a non-Christian world, Boring emphasizes the necessity of a sympathetic historical understanding of those parts of the letter that collide with modern cultural values and understandings of what Christian commitment and theology require. He gives special attention, as well, to the narrative world within which this ancient writer operated, and to the strong affirmation of ecumenism implicit in the letter's amalgamation of tradtions stemming from Peter and Paul, respectively. - Back cover.
First Sentence
How may Christians live faithfully in a non-Christian society that misunderstands and abuses them?
