About This Book

This exposition provides a systematic, verse-by-verse commentary on both epistles attributed to Peter, explaining salutations and structure, extracting doctrines such as election, sanctification, and reconciliation, and offering practical applications for personal holiness. The author analyzes key phrases, attributes theological causes to the three persons of the Godhead, and formulates doctrines with supporting reasons and pastoral uses. The commentary moves from general exhortations to specific duties—addressing scattered believers, magistrates, servants, wives, husbands, fellow Christians, the afflicted, elders, and younger members—and concludes with prayers and admonitions intended to uphold steadfast faith and orderly church life.

Ames was influential in the development of Puritan thought and emphasized the importance of a personal relationship with God.
