Bible Note:  "The Christians of Asia Minor were being tested under difficult circumstances. They were being challenged and even harassed because of their Christian faith. We know that some of them were slaves and faced the temptation of disobeying unjust masters. It is not difficult for us to imagine how Christians were regarded by a surrounding culture that was largely pagan because that is the world in which you and I now live. We know that the Christians were misunderstood as being arrogant because they refused to go along with established Greco-Roman religious worship. They could not acknowledge Caesar (just now, Nero) as a deity. Their worship was misunderstood, misinterpreted, and misrepresented. ... We are entitled to think that the Lord, the Kyrios, the Yahweh, upon whom we are to cast our cares is he who became incarnate for us, who obeyed for us, who, as the God-Man, in his humanity suffered in our place, who was raised for us, and is now seated at the right hand. He is God. He is Son and our Mediator.

"Thus, when Peter quotes Ps 55:22, calling us to cast our cares, our worries upon the Lord because he cares for us, this is not a vague piety but a specific reminder of the greatest of all of God’s concrete saving acts in history: the cross. Our God cannot abandon us because he has committed himself to us in his Son. As the Psalmist says, he will sustain us, because he saved us. He will not allow his righteous to be shaken." --R. Scott Clark (2016)
