2 Peter 3:16
As also in all [his] epistles. Peter knew of many epistles, then,
that Paul had written, and knew also that they contained some very
profound argument, which a Jew especially found it difficult to
understand (See Galatian Letter).
The unlearned and unstable. The ignorant and vacillating.
Wrest. Pervert and give meanings that were never meant.
As [they do] also the other scriptures. The other scriptures may
mean the Old Testament, or New Testament writings already written. The
point to be noted is that already when Peter wrote Paul's epistles were
accepted as a part of the Scriptures.
Unto their own destruction. This should be a warning to all in our
day who twist the Scriptures from their real meaning.
