Focused Passage
Humble Shepherding, Watchful Resistance, and the God Who Restores
Peter moves from exhorting elders to shepherd willingly and humbly, to calling the congregation to humility under God's mighty hand, to urging watchful resistance against the devil, and finally to blessing the God of all grace who restores sufferers into eternal glory.
