1:1 to God’s chosen people: Peter opens his letter to suffering Christians by reminding them of the status they enjoy because of God’s act on their behalf (1:2).
• living as foreigners (literally exiles of the dispersion): An exile had been uprooted from his or her homeland and taken to live in a foreign country. Peter uses the concept metaphorically to remind Christians that they are living in a world dominated by anti-Christian values and ways of life.
• Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia were Roman provinces in what is now Turkey. They might be listed in the order of the route that a messenger would have followed while carrying the letter to the various churches.
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
Πέτρος
Peter
In this culture, letter writers would give their own names first, and they would refer to themselves in the third person. If that would be confusing in your language, you could use the first person. If your language has a particular way of introducing the author of a letter, you could also use that. Alternate translation: [I, Peter, am writing this letter] or [From Peter]
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / distinguish
ἀπόστολος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ
/an/_ambassador ˱of˲_Jesus Christ
This phrase gives further information about Simon Peter. He describes himself as being someone given the position and authority of being Christ’s apostle.
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / 123person
ἐκλεκτοῖς παρεπιδήμοις
˱to˲_/the/_chosen aliens
In this culture, after giving their own names, letter writers would then state to whom they were writing, naming those people in the third person. If that would be confusing in your language, you could use the second person. Alternate translation: [to you elect exiles]
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns
ἐκλεκτοῖς παρεπιδήμοις διασπορᾶς
˱to˲_/the/_chosen aliens ˱of˲_/the/_dispersion
If your language does not use abstract nouns for the ideas of elect and dispersion, you can express the same ideas in another way. Alternate translation: [to those whom God has elected and exiled among those whom God has dispersed]
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
ἐκλεκτοῖς παρεπιδήμοις διασπορᾶς
˱to˲_/the/_chosen aliens ˱of˲_/the/_dispersion
When Peter calls his readers exiles, he could mean: (1) they are exiles because they are far away from their true home in heaven. Alternate translation: [to the elect exiles of the dispersion who are far from their home in heaven] (2) they are exiles because they were forced to leave their homes and go far away to Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia. Alternate translation: [to you elect exiles of the dispersion who are far away from your homes]
Note 6 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
διασπορᾶς
˱of˲_/the/_dispersion
Here, dispersion could refer to: (1) groups of Gentile Christians who were spread throughout the world instead of in their true home in heaven. In this case, dispersion would have a similar meaning to exiles and would add emphasis. Alternate translation: [among those dispersed outside of their true home in heaven] (2) the groups of Jewish people who were spread across the Greek-speaking world that was outside of the land of Israel, which is the common technical meaning for this word. Alternate translation: [among the dispersed Jews]
