PETER, AN apostle (a special messenger) of Jesus Christ, [writing] to the elect exiles of the dispersion scattered (sowed) abroad in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, 1 Peter 1:1 AMPLIFIED This letter is from Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ. I am writing to God's chosen people who are living as foreigners in the lands of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, the province of Asia, and Bithynia. 1 Peter 1:1 The New Living Translation The first epistle of Peter is a letter written to the exiles of the dispersion scattered abroad. Whether it was originally a sermon, we don't know because the text of the book does not tell us. However, "Peter may have been writing especially for...those planning to be baptized." According to The One Year Bible Companion, "The apostle Peter wrote this letter to encourage believers who would likely face trials and persecution under Emperor Nero...Peter may have been writing especially for new Christians and those planning to be baptized. Peter wanted to warn them about what lay ahead, and they needed his encouraging words to help them face opposition" (The One Year Bible Companion, 1992, Tyndale House Publishers).
