“…15 Since then, there have been debates about the authorship of the epistle. 16 Daniel Arichea upholds the Petrine authority of 1 Peter, 17 but other scholars, like Donald P. Senior and Daniel J. Harrington, argue that someone else other than Peter wrote the letter pseudonymously. However, internal evidence within the letter supports Petrine's authorship.…”

“…19 Erland Waltner views 1 Peter as a letter encouraging hope for Christians living in an oppressive environment. 20 Arichea proposed that the hostility towards the believers was from government authorities, pagan elements of society, or the members of the families of the Christian converts. 21 Most probably, the hostilities happened during the time of Nero (AD 54-68).…”

The prominent theme in 1 Peter is holy life and brotherhood as characteristics of being a Christian. Peter instructs Christians on how to respond to the inevitable reality of suffering facing the first-century church. The author of this letter addresses his message to immigrants, immigrants, who are scattered in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia Minor and Bithynia (I Pet. 1:1). Those who receive the letter of I Peter are called people chosen by God, sanctified by the Spirit of God. Thus, the author of the letter I Peter has the appropriate context at the time of writing this letter. The context is noteworthy so that it contributes to understanding Peter 1:13-25. In this text, the author uses a term that can help modern readers understand the context of I Peter. The word used in I Peter 1:13-25 is the word suffering or temptation as stated in I Peter 1:6. The purpose of the suffering is for the quality or purity of the recipient’s faith. The study used the historical-critical method to explore the teaching of 1 Peter 1:13–25. Hence, this exegesis sought to assist in attaining a clearer understanding of what the biblical passage seeks to convey to Christian religious education teachers in Tangerang Indonesia. A quantitative method was also used to seek the views of Christian elementary and junior high school teachers in Tangerang. It concluded that in light of the impending judgment on all humanity, believers are to trust God and continue to live holy lives and foster the spirit of brotherhood amidst their suffering. This study has implications for Christian Education as Christians face attacks from within and without and to remain victorious. Keywords: Holy life, Brotherhood of Believers, Brotherly Love, 1 Peter 1:13-25

“…Others maintain that the decision to employ a secretary arose out of necessity. Since it is unlikely that a Galilean fisherman would have possessed the skills to compose such an epistle, Peter was required to seek out someone with the requisite abilities (e.g., Robinson 1929: 1339; Willmering 1953: 1177; Cranfield 1960: 13-14; Reicke 1964: 69-71; Beasley-Murray 1965: 51; Fitzmyer 1968: 2:362; Thompson 1983: 80-81; Mounce 1983: 3-4; Michaels 1988: lxii; Davids 1990: 4, 6-7; Skaggs 2004: 3; Bosetti 2004: 15; Charles 2005: 278; Green 2007: 6-7; Warden 2009: 12). In either case, as Peter’s amanuensis, Silvanus is assigned an active part in the composition of the letter.…”

“…On the one hand, scholars have argued that 1 and 2 Peter were each composed by different amanuenses (e.g., Plumptre 1879: 79-81; Bennett 1901: 65; Falconer 1902: 47-56; Dillenseger 1907: 193-94; Vrede 1921: 149; Heupler 1942: 627; Charue 1946: 478; Holzmeister 1949: 353; Mounce 1983: 98; Hillyer 1992: 10-11; Picirilli 1992: 219-24; M.C.

This would be consistent with the tradition that Peter employed various other ‘interpreters’ to record his memoirs (e.g., Mark, Glaucias).…”

Even within more recent treatments, this question is sometimes left unaddressed (e.g., Harrison 1992b: 327-28; Moo 1996: 27-28; Charles 1999: 278-80; Mills 2003: 1319; Warden 2009: 453-54; Mbuvi 2015: 10-12; Bateman 2017: 11-19).…”

The Amanuensis Hypothesis in New Testament Scholarship: Its Origin, Evidential Basis, and Application

For centuries, the authorship claims of certain New Testament epistles have been defended by postulating the use of a secretary. According to the amanuensis hypothesis, secretaries in the Greco-Roman world were afforded varying degrees of compositional freedom during the letter-writing process. Proponents of this view maintain that such a consideration invalidates the practice of making authenticity judgments based on the style or even content of a given letter. To better understand the merits and limitations of the amanuensis hypothesis, this article outlines its earliest formulations, traces the development of its evidential basis, and examines the various ways it has been applied within modern authorship debates.

Spiritual leaders play a very important role in the development and growth of the church. They are not only responsible for leading and teaching the congregation, but must also be concerned for the spiritual and emotional well-being of its members. Being competent is not an easy job. A spiritual leader in the context of the New Testament can be seen from the lives of Jesus' disciples. They were also competent pastors who had the leadership skills and qualities required of the day. They lead the congregation and guide according to the purpose that God calls leaders in every context.
