Reviews

No student of First Peter should be without it, and any biblical scholar would benefit from imitating its methodological thoughtfulness, careful philological analysis, broad historical contextualization, and sensitivity to profound and pressing questions of significance.
*Biblica*

Williams and Horrell have done all Primopetrine scholars a great service... It is most comprehensive and will set the standard for scholarly study in 1 Peter for years to come. Every library of theological higher education should procure it for students’ and faculties’ use. New Testament scholars, as able, should also prioritize purchasing this treasure trove of scholarship… even pastors should avail themselves of this resource for the way its authors mine the original meaning of 1 Peter.
