Volume 1 of the ICC commentary on 1 Peter, demonstrating the letter's contribution to early Christianity's development.
"David Horrell is a leading expert on 1 Peter and we are very fortunate to have his contribution to this quality series of introductory guides... Scholars, students and teachers who know Horrell's well-received Introduction to the Study of Paul (now in its second edition), will not be disappointed by the present volume, which continues to evince Horrell's knack for summarizing a point of discussion while in the same breath contributing materially to it."
