Commentary on Peter and Jude
by Martin Luther
Luther's expository lectures on 1 Peter, 2 Peter, and Jude, faithfully translated from Latin into English by Thomas Newton in 1581. The Reformer unfolds the apostolic teaching on living hope, holy conduct, and perseverance under trial, while exposing false teachers and defending the sufficiency of faith alone for salvation. Rich in pastoral warmth and polemic vigor, this commentary reveals Luther's conviction that the epistles of Peter and Jude proclaim the same pure Gospel as Paul — grace freely given through Christ — and equip believers to stand firm against error and suffering.
