Peter confirms the hope of the increase of God's grace,5. exhorts them, by faith, and good works, to make their calling sure; 12. whereof he is careful to remind them, knowing that his death is at hand; 16. and assures them of the authenticity of the Gospel, by the eyewitness of the apostles and the prophets. (12-15) Transition from the exhortation just concluded to the argument that follows, closely and naturally connected with both. (12) I will not be negligent.--According to the right reading, I shall be sure to; because on your doing these things depends your entrance into Christ's kingdom. Though ye know them.--We find the same affectionate delicacy in Romans 15:14-15 (see Notes there); 1John 2:21; Jude 1:5. And be established in the present truth.--Comp. "This is the true grace of God wherein ye stand" (1Peter 5:12), to which it is not impossible that this verse refers; the "always" here looks like a half apology for what his readers might think needless repetition. "The present truth" is an instance of a translation being misleading through its very literalness. The three Greek words are exactly represented, but the sense is misrepresented.

The apostle will take every opportunity of reminding his readers of the truths and duties which he has been describing, and that because faith in those truths and the practice of those duties is the only way to Christ's eternal kingdom. Though ye know them, and be established in the present truth; better, as in the Revised Version, and are established in the truth which is with you. These words seem to imply that St. Peter knew something, through Silvanus (see 1 Peter 5:12), of those to whom he was writing; they were not ignorant of the gospel; now they had read his First Epistle, and earlier they had heard the preaching of St. Paul or his companions (comp. Romans 1:13). (For the word rendered "established" (ἐστηριγμένους), comp. 1 Peter 5:10; 2 Peter 3:16, 17.) St. Peter seems to have kept ever in his thoughts the solemn charge of the Saviour, "When thou art converted, strengthen (στήριξον) thy brethren" (Luke 22:32).
