These last two parallels belong together. Weiss (Lehrbegriff 

 p. 423) thinks there is here a clear case of Paul's dependence upon 

 I Peter. Chase (H. B. D., III. p. 788) on the other hand thinks 

 the dependence of I Peter is obvious. Practical^ all scholars 

 are agreed that there is here a clear case of dependence. The pri- 

 ority must be given to Paul, as wiU appear later.

Zuv(r)(Yjij.aTo^o[j.ai is found only in these two passages in all the 

 N. T. Nor is the word used by the LXX. Our Epistle has an 

 amplification of the simpler form found in Romans. This parallel 

 receives added significance when placed alongside of I Pt. 2 ; 5 = 

 Rom. 12 ; 1. Cf. H. J. Holtzmann's Einleitung p. 314.

The antithesis here is an important parallel construction, wliile 

 the thought is equally striking. This and the foregoing example 

 make a strong case for dependence.

 This is a common N. T. parallel, but it is closer here than in 

 James 2 ; 1 or Acts 10 ; 34. Our Epistle clearly refers to God's 

 Trans. Conn. Acad., Vol. XVII. 29 January, 1913.
