on the plan of 1 ; 7. With the single exception of I Pt. 1 ; 3, this 

 exact phrase is peculiar to Paul and at the same time very common 

 mth him. Though the close agreement is striking in the context, 

 Eph. 1 ; 3 shows a much more probable connection.

This may be a real echo, though the evidence is inadequate for 

 any degree of certainty.

Although the y£vo<; £x}.£xt6v may be borrowed from Isa. 43 ; 20
