1 Petrus 2:5

2:5 you yourselves, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood and to offer ¹  spiritual sacrifices that are acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

1 Petrus 1:11

1:11 They probed ²  into what person or time ³  the Spirit of Christ within them was indicating when he testified beforehand about the sufferings appointed for Christ ⁴  and his subsequent glory. ⁵ 

[2:5]  ¹ tn Grk “unto a holy priesthood to offer.”

[1:11]  ² tn Grk “probing.” The participle continues the sentence from v. 10 but has been translated as an indicative for English style.

[1:11]  ³ tn Or “time or circumstances,” focusing not on the person but on the timing and circumstances of the fulfillment.

[1:11]  sn The OT prophets wondered about the person and the surrounding circumstances (time) through which God would fulfill his promised salvation.

[1:11]  ⁴ tn Grk “the sufferings unto Christ,” i.e., sufferings directed toward him, what he was destined to suffer.
