1 Peter 5:1
Conclusion
SUMMARY OF I PETER 5: A Charge to the Elders. The Young Exhorted.
Humility Enjoined. Watchfulness. Salutations from the Brethren at
Babylon.
The elders which are among you. That Peter means the officers, not
the aged persons, is shown by 1 Peter 5:2.
Who am also an elder. An elder as well as an apostle. He exhorts
them as one of themselves.
And a witness of the sufferings of Christ. An eye witness of what
Christ suffered and of his resurrection.
And also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed. An heir of
the glory that shall be revealed when Christ comes.
