Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Peter 2:5

1 Peter 2:5. Ye also Believing in him with a loving and obedient faith, as lively Greek, ζωντες , living, stones Quickened and made alive to God by spiritual life derived from him, are built up Upon him, and in union with each other; a spiritual house Spiritual yourselves; and a habitation of God through the Spirit. For, according to his promise, he lives and walks in every true believer, 2 Corinthians 6:16; and collectively considered, as a holy society, or assembly, uniting... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - 1 Peter 2:4-10

God’s living temple (2:4-10)People in general might see no worth in Christ and reject him, but God sees him as the chosen one through whom sinners have eternal life. Those who receive new life through Christ are likened to living stones who form a temple in which God is worshipped. They also form the priesthood that offers the worship (4-5).Christ is the chief cornerstone in this living building, and those who believe in him will never be disappointed (6). The people of Israel, who were... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - 1 Peter 2:5

ye also, as living stones, are built up a spiritual house, to be a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.Ye also, as living stones ... The figure of the spiritual temple of God is continued in this; just as Christ is the living stone, so also are the Christians. And why "living"? Because the Lord is the living One, and the life-giving One, the same yesterday, today, and forever. As members of Christ's spiritual body, Christians partake of the... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - 1 Peter 2:4-5

1 Peter 2:4-5. To whom coming, as unto a Living Stone, &c.— By coming unto Christ is meant the joining oneself to him as a part of this spiritual building, or embracing his religion with the heart unto righteousness. The reason why St. Peter compares Jesus Christ to a stone was, because he had, under the Spirit of God, his eye upon those passages of the Old Testament which he quotes in the following verses. Plants and animals are alive, as long as there is a proper communication of... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - 1 Peter 2:5

5. Ye also, as lively stones—partaking of the name and life which is in "THE LIVING STONE" (1 Peter 2:4; 1 Corinthians 3:11). Many names which belong to Christ in the singular are assigned to Christians in the plural. He is "THE SON," "High Priest," "King," "Lamb"; they, "sons," "priests," "kings," "sheep," "lambs." So the Shulamite called from Solomon [BENGEL]. are built up—Greek, "are being built up," as in 1 Corinthians 3:11- :. Not as ALFORD, "Be ye built up." Peter grounds his... read more

C. Our Priestly Calling 2:1-10Peter continued his explanation of Christians’ duties as we endure trials and suffering joyfully. He called his readers to do certain things in the world of unbelievers, and he reminded them of certain realities in this pericope. He did so to motivate them to press on to finish God’s plan and purpose for them in the world now."The great doxology (1 Peter 1:3-12) begins with praise to God, who is the One who begot us again. All hortations that follow grow out of... read more

II. THE IDENTITY OF CHRISTIANS 1:3-2:10The essentially chiastic structure of thought in the letter, excluding the introduction and conclusion, can be visualized in the outline (above). The recurrence of the direct address "Beloved" in 1 Peter 2:11 and 1 Peter 4:12 divides this letter into three main parts."The theme of the first part is the identity of the people of God established on the basis of the great salvation Christ has accomplished (and is accomplishing) on their behalf. Their identity... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - 1 Peter 2:5

Peter saw the church as a living temple to which God was adding with the conversion of each new believer. Each Christian is one of the essential stones that enables the whole structure to fulfill its purpose (cf. Matthew 16:15-18). Later Peter would say his readers were also priests (1 Peter 2:9), but here the emphasis is on their being a building for priestly service, namely, a temple."This ’spiritual house’ includes believers in the five Roman provinces of 1 Peter 1:1 and shows clearly how... read more
