First Epistle of Peter. 497 



especially Rom. 13 ; 1, G, 7, 8 with I Pt. 2 ; 13. 17. Certainly there 

 are more obvious reasons for beheving that our author was influenced 

 at this point by Paul than by Mark or the Petrine source back of 

 Mark. Mark in like manner may equally be dependent upon Romans.

Dean Plumtre thinks that this is one of " Peter's reminiscences of 

 the Lord's teaching." But the thought and phraseology of I Pt. 2 ; 21 a 

 is too common in the Pauline Epistles to render such a view tenable. 

 Furthermore the i/vo? of I Pt. 2 ; 21 b occurs only here and in Rom. 4 ; 

 12 and II Cor. 12 ; 18, in which places, significantly enough, it 

 is employed in the same sense in which our author uses it. Hence 

 it is not necessary for us to suppose that these scriptures come 

 from a common Petrine source.

Our author is drawing from Isa. 53 all through this section. Cf. 

 I Pt. 2 ; 23 with Isa. 53 ; 7. The word XoibopiM is not found in 

 the Synoptic Gospels, but it is used in I Cor. 4 ; 12 and in the 

 PauHne portion of Acts (23 ; 4). AoiBopia is used only by Paul 

 and our author, while Xoibopoc, is only to be found in I Cor. 5 ; 

 11, 6 ; 10. ^ AvTikoibo^oc is pecuUar to above citation. Hence this 

 would be a slender thread on which to suspend an argument 

 either for literary dependence or a common source.

Again we cannot follow Plumtre in his " reminiscences of St. 

 Peter." The language of Mk. 15 ; 15 is much more in accord with 

 a real reminiscence than I . Pt. 2 ; 24. The quotation from Isaiah 

 seems to indicate that our author was musing on the picture of the 

 " Suffering Servant " of II Isaiah rather than upon the concrete 

 instance depicted in Mark.
