Privileges of Christians

Peter now explains that the blessings and salvation Christians enjoy were not invented recently. These truths were carefully studied by the prophets in the Old Testament. The message of salvation through Jesus Christ has been God’s plan all along. Even the greatest people of faith before Jesus wanted to understand these things fully, and the angels themselves are amazed by God’s plan for us.

v. 10: The prophets, who were guided by God’s Spirit, searched deeply into the message of salvation and the grace that was to come. These men did not rely on their own wisdom, but on what God revealed to them. They longed to discover more about how God would save his people through the Messiah, especially the blessings that would come to both Jews and Gentiles (1 Peter 1:10; Daniel 9:2 ^a).
