There was a term of patience assigned: "Yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years." Do men wonder at one's abstaining? 3:7 Likewise, you husbands, live understandingly with your wives, remembering that women are the weaker sex and assigning honour to them as fellow-heirs of the grace of life, so that there may be no barrier to your prayers. "He," it is said of Christ, "gave them gifts, to each man according to his several ability." (3) The Descent Into Hell ( 1 Peter 3:18 b-20;4:6 Continued). 19 By which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison; Read full chapter. Give her that security; give her that strength. This is the reason why he connects it with the appearing of Jesus Christ. Thus the Lord Jesus, being already come and about to come again, brings before us two of these stages, while the mission of the Holy Ghost for the gospel fills up the interval between them. The "spirits in prison" are mentioned in the broader context of suffering righteously. But that man has this conscience in his natural state is most certain. A man under the law never fulfils the law: the man who is under grace is the one that does, and the only one; for the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in those "who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." The self-same principle is true in the believer, although of course it is pure grace toward him, whereas it was moral perfectness in Jesus. all this, and which Beza, with others, observes, the apostle There could have been no Christianity if Jesus had not come; yet as long as He was visibly present on earth, Christianity proper could not even begin. Think of the power that brought it into existence. Another MS., written about A. D. 1370, is the same as the printed copy. "Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren," for this is the sure effect "see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently." I haven't found any biblical evidence for that conclusion. He was saying that we each worship something - we seek to fill the God-shaped hole in our hearts, but our worship is all vain, it's all futile, unless we worship the one true God. The case for Christianity must be presented with winsomeness and with love, and with that wise tolerance which realizes that it is not given to any man to possess the whole truth. The plural "spirits" describes human beings only one other place in the New Testament (Hebrews 12:23), but it describes evil spirit beings frequently (Matthew 10:1; Mark 1:27; Mark 3:11; Mark 5:13; Mark 6:7: Luke 4:36; Luke 6:18; Acts 5:16; Revelation 16:13; et al.). In other words, Peter is not preaching something he didn't practice, but he did this very same thing himself. It says that Jesus went and preached to the spirits who are in prison ( 1 Peter 3:19); and it speaks of the gospel being preached to the dead ( 1 Peter 4:6). In 1 Peter 3:19 he says that Jesus preached to the spirits in prison; and in 1 Peter 4:6 he says that the gospel was preached to them that are dead. 1 Peter 3:19 Context Crossref Comment Greek Verse (Click for Chapter) New International Version After being made alive, he went and made proclamation to the imprisoned spirits New Living Translation So he went and preached to the spirits in prison English Standard Version in which he went and proclaimed to the spirits in prison, Others explain this passage of the apostles, that Christ by their ministry appeared to the dead, that is, to unbelievers. Couple of Sundays ago, she was throwing clay pots out on the patio railing. In our case it is all through Jesus. For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it. let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile: Let him turn away from evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and pursue it. Nevertheless these "spirits" could still be angels. Now, when a conscience is touched by the Holy Spirit, what is it that satisfies such a conscience? And Peter is saying recognize that that is the true beauty. Peter now reminded his readers of the consequences of Jesus response to unjustified persecution. . Our faith must be a first-hand discovery and not a second-hand story. That would be the best sermon she could preach to win her husband for Christ. But what pertinency would there have been in saying that Christ went down to hell, and delivered some sort of a message there, we know not what, to those who are confined there? It is when we are at one with each other that we are at one with him. As was natural for him, Peter sums the matter up by quoting Psalms 34:1-22, with its picture of the man whom God receives and the man whom God rejects. Various forms of pregnant and brachylogical construction (Winer s Grammar, 66, 2; (less fully, Buttmann, 327 (282)); Bernhardy (1829), p. 348f): etc. There is no difficulty that I see about it. God set them apart unto Himself by the effectual working of the Holy Ghost,. It comes, first, from the sense of creatureliness. and continuing so, a flood was brought upon them which destroyed The man that would make all his scripture to be the epistle to the Ephesians would soon find himself in want of Peter. She must live in the conviction that the whole world is the Temple of God and that all life is lived in the presence of Christ. But even on this word there are several various readings; some of the Greek MSS. There's an Old Swedish proverb, Good looks don't last, good cookers do. Whence is the power or the growth in holiness? If we saw a company of men in prison who had seen better days - a multitude now drunken, and debased, and poor, and riotous - it would not be improper to say that the prospect of wealth and honor was once held out to this ragged and wretched multitude. is future, would have coalesced, so; far as this could have been; but two distinct comings of the Lord (one past, and the other future) have broken up the matter into these separate parts. They watch. However this may have been, it is of all importance for the Christian that he should be established in the place of patient submission; as we see Paul elsewhere taking especial pains to insist that the Christians in Rome should obey, even where they had to do with one of the most abandoned men that had ever governed the empire, persecuting themselves to death a short time after. He came to do the will of God, and this not as the law proposed, in order that it might be well with Him, and He might live long in the earth; He never had such a motive though He fulfilled the law perfectly. His spirit, instead of being bound by those forces that lead to eternal condemnation, entered into fuller life. At the same time the general principles of God are in nowise enfeebled by Christianity, but rather strengthened and cleared immensely. We do not hear now of the gift of the Spirit. It is an effectual work of God's Spirit from the very starting-point of the career of faith. Whatever the form, God never gives up His righteous government, though there is His grace also. The elders are not to treat the flock as if it belonged to them. In other words, if we think of firmness, as well as the sense of belonging to heaven, a bright triumphant consciousness of glory, surely we must enter into and enjoy the precious truth of our union with Christ. If they despised it, they none the less suffered the consequences. In short, one may find here and there a truly excellent man, and, we will suppose, a number of godly people. And he, it was dangerous moving, I mean, he shouldn't have pulled out in front of me, but he did and the thing died. Immediately the idea of being brought to safety through the water turns Peter's thoughts to Christian baptism, which is also a bringing to safety through the water. Turn away from evil, do good. The principle, however, is sound; and may we heed it in conscience, looking to the Lord's grace in our weakness. In this he takes exactly the same attitude as Paul takes ( 1 Corinthians 7:13-16). of "As each man hath received the gift, even so minister the same one to another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God. And I am persuaded that a hardness of character, quite intolerable to men of spiritual minds, would inevitably be generated by making all our food to consist in what could be extracted from Ephesians and Colossians, the effect of which would soon become painfully sensible to others. Such a man is desperately easily hurt. The word rendered prison, ( phulake,) means properly watch, guard - the act of keeping watch, or the guard itself; then watchpost, or station; then a place where anyone is watched or guarded, as a prison; then a watch in the sense of a division of the night, as the morning watch. And here is the wonderful infatuation of unbelief. They were that wicked race which lived in the days of Noah. All that is needful is to identify them as the same persons who once had this prospect. spirits out of prison, only of Christ's preaching to them: add to Will it tell of thy faithfulness?" In the thrilling early days of the Church this prayer was fulfilled, for they were all of one heart and of soul ( Acts 4:32). The Christian is humble because he is constantly aware of his utter dependence on God and that of himself he can do nothing. They were those who were sometimes disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah. No others are specified; and if it should be maintained that this means that he went down to hell (Hades), or to Sheol, and preached to those who are confined there, it could be inferred from this passage only that he preached to that portion of the lost spirits confined there which belonged to the particular generation in which Noah lived. And he, speaking, said; that is, he said. Getting along; you know our prayer life can be hindered by friction within the home. The previous verse ended the narrative concerning Peter and it continued that of Herod. We can read of the thousands of casualties on the roads with no reaction within our hearts, forgetting that each means a broken body or a broken heart for someone. That is to say, it is not simply the blood of Christ, which indeed is never the meaning of baptism; still less is it the life of Christ: baptism means nothing of the sort. "If any man speak, [let it be] as oracles of God; if any man minister, [let it be] as of the ability which God giveth." in which also he went and preached unto the spirits in prison. (v) Fifth, Peter sets humility. But none of these wonders of grace could have been, unless by redemption we receive the end of our faith meanwhile, namely, soul-salvation. Since He came and showed the perfect pattern, it was less than ever the time to sanction disobedience; it was more than ever unbecoming to shirk the path of suffering. The truth is that the assumption of "my flock," or "yours", is the root of endless mischief. So opening the prison. Here we find the various relations of life practically met. But then, to what are they sanctified of the Holy Ghost thus? (ii) He lays it down that that sacrifice was for sin. One thing is clear, sympathy and selfishness cannot coexist. in which also to the spirits in prison having gone he did preach, It is, therefore, better first of all to read it as a whole and then to study it in its various sections. It was, and still is, no uncommon sight in the East to see the man riding on a donkey while the woman trudged by his side. It hence follows, that we shall not less feel it in vivifying whatever is mortal in us. Least of all can the Jews be said to be sown in the land of Palestine. 1 Peter 3:19. In fact, the righteousness of the law is fulfilled in no one but the Christian. May 11, 1986. Christ died once and for all for sins. There we have not merely the blessed Saviour who in unspeakable love comes down and attracts the heart, and searches the conscience, but He settles all for us with God by redemption. It was an imprecation of death on themselves from God if they violated His commandments. For it is hardly necessary to say to any intelligent believer, that whatever may be the new privileges, and consequently fresh duties which flow from them, there are certain unchangeable moral principles to which God holds throughout all time. 19 In which also coming he preached to those spirits that were in prison . It is not then a question of wounding; for why should it hurt you, if I see a particular truth and must act according to it? It only makes confusion in jumbling up law and gospel, to the detriment of both, and indeed to the destruction of all the beauty and force of truth. There can be nothing without this: impossible to have any holy and permanent blessing for the soul without it; nevertheless this is not what is said. Our relationships with God can never be right, if our relationships with our fellow-men are wrong. If it were your heritage, you would have certain rights; but the truth is that he who stands in the position of an elder has no small responsibility. He's giving you just one so you can't forget. Epictetus, the philosopher, thinking of the narrow life to which women were condemned in the ancient world, said, "Immediately after they are fourteen, women are called 'ladies' by men. You know, they could hold you down until you drown and it still won't save you. They shall feed in the ways, and their pastures shall be in all high places. 206-13.] words are to be understood of Christ's going to preach, by his This is, indeed, a more tolerable sense than the former; but it will be difficult to show, that men, in the present state of life, are called "spirits", which seems to be a word that relates to the souls of men, in a separate state from their bodies; and especially that carnal and unconverted men are ever so called; and besides, the apostle is speaking of such who were disobedient in the times of Noah; and therefore not of the Gentiles, in the times of the apostles: add to which, that the transition from the times of the apostles, according to this sense, to the days of Noah, is very unaccountable; this sense does not agree with the connection of the words: others are of opinion, that this is meant of the souls of the Old Testament saints, who were , "in a watch", as they think the phrase may be rendered, instead of "in prison": and said to be in such a situation, because they were intent upon the hope of promised salvation, and were looking out for the Messiah, and anxiously desiring his coming, and which he, by some gracious manifestation, made known unto them: but though the word may sometimes signify a watch, yet more commonly a prison, and which sense best suits here; nor is that anxiety and uneasiness, which represents them as in a prison, so applicable to souls in a state of happiness; nor such a gracious manifestation so properly called preaching; and besides, not believers, but unbelievers, disobedient ones, are here spoken of; and though it is only said they were sometimes so, yet to what purpose should this former character be once mentioned of souls now in glory?
