1 Peter 2:5 - Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Bible Comments

Ye — Believers. As living stones — Alive to God through him. Are built up — In union with each other. A spiritual house — Being spiritual yourselves, and an habitation of God through the Spirit. An holy priesthood — Consecrated to God, and "holy as he is holy." To offer up — Your souls and bodies, with all your thoughts, words, and actions, as spiritual sacrifices to God.

1 Peter 2:5

5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.
