Alexander Nisbet’s commentary on 1 & 2 Peter provides an outstanding practical treatment of his epistles. This Geneva Series of Commentaries is ideal aid for preachers, teachers, group leaders and all students or readers of the Bible. Perhaps of all the apostles, most Christians find themselves most readily drawn to Simon Peter. His failure, restoration and subsequent usefulness provide hope for those who face testing and temptation. Despite that, Peter’s twin epistles are probably given less attention than many other sections of the New Testament. But they continue to speak with power and relevance.

They provide encouragement and assurance from one who himself needed both; they give basic instruction in Christian living; they also provide clear teaching on false doctrine. They are therefore essential letters for Christians today.

About the Author

Alexander Nisbet (1623-69) was a Covenanting minister who graduated from Edinburgh University (M.A., 1643) and was ordained to the Second Charge of Irvine, Ayrshire around 1646. He moved to the First Charge in 1650, and was ejected in 1662 when Episcopacy was re-established. The Trust publishes his Exposition of 1 & 2 Peter in the Geneva series.
