Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Peter 1:11

(11) An entrance shall be ministered unto you.—“Ministered” is the passive of the same verb that is translated “add” in 2 Peter 1:5, and is probably chosen to answer to 2 Peter 1:5. “Supply these graces, and an entrance into the kingdom shall be abundantly supplied to you”—“abundantly,” i.e., with a warm welcome, as to a son coming home in triumph; not a bare grudging admission, as to a stranger.Thus ends the first main section of the Epistle, which contains the substance of the whole. Its... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - 2 Peter 1:12

(12) I will not be negligent.—According to the right reading, I shall be sure to; because on your doing these things depends your entrance into Christ’s kingdom.Though ye know them.—We find the same affectionate delicacy in Romans 15:14-15 (see Notes there); 1 John 2:21; Jude 1:5.And be established in the present truth.—Comp. “This is the true grace of God wherein ye stand” (1 Peter 5:12), to which it is not impossible that this verse refers; the “always” here looks like a half apology for what... read more

Steps to a Divine Goal 2 Peter 1:4 I. Peter reminds us of the end to be achieved by those manifold assurances to which the Divine fidelity is pledged. 'That through these ye may become partakers of the Divine nature,' What a profound and original conception is this that God has expressly given to His people promises through which they may reach a vital participation in His own sacred and glorious nature. In all human society there is an unhappy tendency to exclusiveness and self-absorption.... read more

Chapter 20 WHO SHALL ASCEND INTO THE HILL OF THE LORD?2 Peter 1:5-11THE Apostle has just set forth in all their fullness the riches of Divine grace: the precious faith, followed by the bestowal of all helps toward life and godliness, and with the large promises of God to rely on for the future, promises whereby those who seek to renounce the things which are not of the Father, but of the world, may become partakers of the Divine nature. These blessings are assured, are in store, but only for... read more

Chapter 21 THE VOICE HEARD IN THE HOLY MOUNT2 Peter 1:12-18UP to this point the Apostle has spoken of God’s abundant grace and the consequent duties of believers. And he has set forth these duties in the most encouraging language. He has pictured first the gift of Divine power, and the precious promises of God, whereby men may be helped to walk onward and upward; and when the labor is ended he has pointed to the door of Christ’s eternal kingdom, open to admit the saint to His everlasting rest.... read more

Analysis and Annotations I. THE GRACIOUS PROVISIONS OF GOD CHAPTER 1 1. God’s gracious provisions in Christ (2 Peter 1:1-4 ) 2. The development of the divine nature (2 Peter 1:5-11 ) 3. The promises of prophecy (2 Peter 1:12-21 ) 2 Peter 1:1-4 We are not left in doubt who the writer is, not a pseudo Peter, but Simon Peter, the fisherman of Galilee. With this second Epistle he finishes the task given him by the Lord “to strengthen his brethren.” The opening verse of the third chapter shows... read more

1:12 {9} Wherefore I will not be negligent to put you always in remembrance of these things, though ye know [them], and be established in the present truth.(9) An amplifying of the conclusion joined with a modest excuse, in which he declares his love towards them, and tells them of his death which is at hand. read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - 2 Peter 1:1-21

Peter writes not only as an apostle (as in his first epistle), but as a bondman and apostle. So authority is not only stressed, but lowliness of subjection, a precious reminder in days of deter-mined in subjection. Nor does he directly address only the dispersed of Israel, but those who have obtained the same precious faith as the apostles, a faith all the more precious when it is challenged by innumerable forms of unbelief. And this is through the righteousness of Him who is named "our God... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - 2 Peter 1:1-21

FALLING FROM GRACE A WARNING Second Peter is the first of the New Testament books of which there is any doubt as to its canonicity. It was not mentioned by the earliest Christian writers, but this may be accounted for by the lateness of its appearance, and the fact that it was not addressed to any local church with an interest in and facility for making its existence known. On the other hand there are points of genuineness, such as similar expressions to those in 1 Peter, similar... read more
