This publication is not a commentary on 1 Peter, but an excellent introduction, in which the author has tried to answer such questions as …- to whom it was written, - where it was written from, - why was it witten.He also gives a brief survey of its character and main contents. There are many useful conmmentaries on 1 Peter, but this publication meets head on, and hopefully answers convincingly, a few questions which some commentators avoid, questions of particular relevance to students of the Bible.
