베드로전서 3:10-12 KRV

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - 1 Peter 3:12

Verse 12 12For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, or, on the righteous. It ought to be a consolation to us, sufficient to mitigate all evils, that we are looked upon by the Lord, so that he will bring us help in due time. The meaning then is, that the prosperity which he has mentioned depends on the protection of God; for were not the Lord to care for his people, they would be like sheep exposed to wolves. And that we for little reason raise a clamor, that we suddenly kindle unto... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Peter 3:1-22

The subject of this section is the necessity for a life becoming the Christian name; this is applied to Christian citizens and to Christian servants, and, here, to Christian wives. The reason for the conspicuous place here assigned to wives is obvious. The writer is addressing Churches in pagan countries, many of whose members were wives of heathen husbands. What were these to do? were they to continue in that relationship, or did their Christianity sever the marriage bond? That question... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Peter 3:8-12

Peter had, so this passage suggests, well learnt the lesson about forgiveness to which he had listened as he heard the sermon on the mount, and he had equally well drunk in the spirit of the great intercessory prayer he had heard in the upper room, "That ye all may be one." For he is here gathering up all his teaching about social life in the strong words now before us: "Finally," etc. He is enjoining, in simple detail and with a sublime motive, unity between Christian people. I. WHEREIN ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Peter 3:10

For he that will love life ; literally, he that willeth to love life. St. Peter deviates somewhat from the Septuagint Version of Psalms 34:12-16 , which he is quoting. The literal rendering of it is, "What man is he that desireth life, loving good days?" His connection of the participle θέλων with ἀγαπᾶν is remarkable. Perhaps the meaning is best given by Bengel, "Qui vult ita vivere, nt ipsum non taedeat vitro"—" Who wishes to live so that he will not weary of life;" so that he... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Peter 3:11

Let him eschew evil, and do good ; literally, let him turn away from evil. Let him seek peace, and ensue it . Let him seek it as a hidden treasure, and pursue it as if it might escape from him. read more

The Pulpit Commentary - 1 Peter 3:12

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers. The apostle adds the conjunction "for" ( ὅτι , because) to mark the connection. God's people must turn away from evil and do good, because the all-seeing eye is upon them; they will find strength to do so, because God heareth prayer. Perhaps when the apostle was writing these words he remembered how once "the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter." But the face of the Lord is against them... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Peter 3:10

For he that will love life - Greek, “He willing, (θέλων thelōn,) or that wills to love life.” It implies that there is some positive desire to live; some active wish that life should be prolonged. This whole passage 1 Peter 3:10-12 is taken, with some slight variations, from Psalms 34:12-16. In the Psalm this expression is, “What man is he that desireth life, and loveth many days, that he may see good?” The sense is substantially the same. It is implied here that it is right to love life, and... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Peter 3:11

Let him eschew evil - Let him avoid all evil. Compare Job 1:1.And do good - In any and every way; by endeavoring to promote the happiness of all. Compare the notes at Galatians 6:10.Let him seek peace, and ensue it - Follow it; that is, practice it. See the Matthew 5:9 note; Romans 12:18 note. The meaning is, that a peaceful spirit will contribute to length of days:A peaceful spirit - a calm, serene, and equal temper of mind - is favorable to health, avoiding those corroding and distracting... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - 1 Peter 3:12

For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous - That is, he is their Protector. His eyes are indeed on all people, but the language here is that which describes continual guardianship and care.And his ears are open unto their prayers - He hears their prayers. As he is a hearer of prayer, they are at liberty to go to him at all times, and to pour out their desires before him. This passage is taken from Psalms 34:15, and it is designed to show the reason why a life of piety will contribute to... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - 1 Peter 3:10-13

1 Peter 3:10-13. He that will love life That would make life amiable and desirable; and see good days Namely, such as are prosperous and happy; let him refrain his tongue from evil From railing, back-biting, tale-bearing, from all rash and provoking expressions; and his lips that they speak no guile No deceit; nothing contrary to sincerity and simplicity. See on Psalms 32:2. In this and the following verses the apostle offers three arguments, of great importance, to induce men to the... read more
