First Epistle of Peter 483 



not as a cleansing of the body but as a cleansing of the conscience. 

 No other N. T. writers so allude to it. Both refer to the physical 

 ablution in suggestive phraseology. It is also to be noted that 

 pavTio-[j.£vo!, is similarly used by I Peter in other connections.

That no earlier writer addresses doxologies to Christ is most 

 significant. II Tim. 4 ; 18 is hardly an exception. The similar 

 phrasing in this pecuhar usage is most easily accounted for on the 

 basis of some real connection.

Monnier, Goodspeed and many others think that there is here some 

 connection. See comments on Ex. 3.

The parallel is striking since it is used by no other N. T. writers. 

 " The idea is foreign to Paul but recurs in Barnabas." (Bigg.) The 

 possible reference in I Pt. 4 ; 6 to Heb. 12 ; 23 b is significant in this 

 connection. Note also I Pt. 1 ; 3 may refer to Heb. 6 ; 18.

Though Paul frequently alludes to the G-Taupo? he does not think 

 of Jesus " enduring " it that glory should foUow. Nor does he 

 think of Jesus as the suffering Servant of Isa. 53, as is here presented. 

 'V7U£[j.£V£v TTaupov and 7ra9'Y)[j.aTa are quite different in form yet the
