1 Pedro 4

1 Pedro 4:6

Christ was preached to many who rose again at his resurrection, something which is attested in Matthew [27:52-53]. In this life sinners bear sufferings in the body by means of repentance, in order to gain a constant and blessed life in that spiritual citizenship. It seems that by the "dead" Peter means sinners and that by life in the Spirit he means repentance. — COMMENTARIES
