In this volume of the New Testament Everyday Bible Study series, Scot McKnight explores the books of 1 Peter, 2 Peter, and Jude. In these books, McKnight helps us understand that the most demanding challenge for early believers in Jesus Christ was how to live as a believer in the Roman empire. The primary challenges came to expressions in how a household was to live, how to respond to suffering, how to live a holy life, and how to maintain faithfulness to the truths of the gospel. In the New Testament Everyday Bible Study Series, widely respected biblical scholar Scot McKnight combines interpretive insights with pastoral wisdom for all the books of the New Testament. Each volume provides: Original Meaning. Brief, precise expositions of the biblical text and offers a clear focus for the central message of each passage. Fresh Interpretation. Brings the passage alive with fresh images and what it means to follow King Jesus.
Practical Application. Biblical connections and questions for reflection and application for each passage.
