Alexander Nisbet’s commentary on 1 & 2 Peter provides an outstanding practical treatment of Peter’s epistles. Like the other volumes in this series, Nisbet’s commentary on 1 & 2 Peter is an ideal aid for preachers, teachers, group leaders and all students or readers of the Bible.

Perhaps of all the apostles, most Christians find themselves most readily drawn to Simon Peter. His failure, restoration and subsequent usefulness provide hope for those who face testing and temptation. Despite that, Peter’s twin epistles are seemingly given less attention than many other sections of the New Testament. However, they continue to speak with power and relevance, providing encouragement and assurance from one who himself needed both. These epistles give basic instruction in Christian living and provide clear teaching on false doctrine, and are therefore essential letters for Christians today.
