like precious faith
2 Peter 1:1
1:1 like precious faith. Peter was writing to the same churches to whom he had written his first epistle (see II Peter 3:1), but his salutation this time was not just to the Christian Jews of the dispersion (as in I Peter 1:1), but also “to them that have obtained like precious faith with us.” The natural inference is that, in the few years following his first epistle, many new Gentile converts had come into these churches.
