1 Peter Chapter 3 – A Detailed, Study Bible Commentary Photo by  iam_os  on  Unsplash I open 1 Peter chapter 3, I feel this strange mix of calm heaviness—like when you smell old paper in a Bible that’s been read too many times and you can almost taste the dust on the page. It’s one of those chapters that feels gentle and sharp at the same time. Soft like wool on the skin, but with a little thorn hiding in it. And honestly, that’s fitting, because Peter wrote to people walking through fire yet told them to answer with peace. Kinda wild. And so here we go, verse by verse, thought by thought, with those ancient Greek words whispering through the text like the sound of a slow wind moving through cedar trees, and sometimes I’ll dip into Hebrew roots where the ideas overlap—because the Bible breathes in both languages like lungs inhale and exhale. “Wives, likewise, be subject to your own husbands...” Greek key word: hypotassō (ὑποτάσσω) — “to arrange under, to willingly ...

Slow, thoughtful, stopping every few verses to stare again and again at the same thing, but seeing it different each time. Let’s go verse by verse, layer by layer, heart by heart. 1. The Name “Jesus” — Where It Comes From (Matthew 1:21) “You shall call His name Jesus, for ...

  WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS ABOUT THE SECOND COMING OF CHRIST Photo by engin akyurt on Unsplash You ever sit down on a cloudy afternoon, maybe with that smell of rain that’s been teasing the air since morning, and suddenly your mind drifts toward the big things in Scripture? I had that feeling today. Something in the wind felt kinda… expectant. And I thought, you know what, let’s talk about the Second Coming. Not the dramatic movie kind with explosions and shaky CGI. I mean the real, Bible-anchored, hope-soaked promise Jesus talked about Himself. And honestly, this topic always makes my heart thump a bit louder, not in fear but like when you’re waiting for someone you love deeply to finally come home. It’s weird—sometimes Christians avoid the topic or treat it like an academic puzzle with charts and timelines that may or may not make sense. But Scripture talks about it with this beautiful mix of mystery, urgency, and comfort. So, let’s just go straight in. Let’s walk through some co...
