1 Peter 5:1 . Who am also an elder. See the note on Acts 20:28, and on Philippians 1:1.

John Trapp Complete Commentary - 1 Peter 5:6

6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Ver. 6. Under the mighty hand of God ] If God can blow us to destruction,Job 4:9; Job 4:9 , nod us to destruction, Psalms 18:16 , what is the weight of that mighty hand of his that spans the heavens and holds the earth in the hollow of them?

I have cast my care upon the Lord which careth for me, and will be careless, according to my name. It is our work, saith another, to cast care; it is God’s work to take care. Let... read more
