Written by one of the renowned preachers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, this commentary on the First and Second Epistles of Peter has stood the test of time. Detailed down to the level of just a few verses in each chapter, this study is geared to the pastor who is seeking the advice of a senior mentor in the field who had recognized insight into the Scriptures. This commentary does not plumb the depths of academic approaches to the Catholic Epistles, but instead forcefully provides material that may be used in sermons and Bible studies. As a contribution to the "Gorgias Occasional Historical Commentary Series", this volume covers the books associated with St. Peter, recognized as a premier apostle in the earliest church. This commentary on his letters is certain to be repeatedly read by those in the pulpit or leading the study of these books from an evangelical viewpoint. John Henry Jowett (1864-1923) was an influential clergyman at the turn of the century. After receiving theological training at Edinburgh and Oxford Universities, he served parishes in England until recruited to Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York. He returned to London's Westminster Chapel for his final appointment.
