Commentary,
1 Peter 2:19-25, Richard Jensen, Preaching This Week, WorkingPreacher.org, 2008.
- "When we address our people today in twenty-first century America we address very few in our pews who are 'aliens and exiles.' We preach to people who have rights in our society who, therefore, have the ability to protest unjust treatment through the courts and through the halls of political powers. Let us not proclaim to our people a false theology of submission based on a very different context from the pages of I Peter."
