Discovery Box1 Peter 2:5 
Context2:5 you yourselves, as living stones, are built up as a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood and to offer 1 spiritual sacrifices that are acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 5:5
Context5:5 In the same way, you who are younger, 2 be subject to the elders. And all of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. 3
1 tn Grk “unto a holy priesthood to offer.”
2 sn In this context younger and elder are terms that combine two meanings: relative age and an official structure of leadership in the church. As in v. 1, elder here denotes those who exercise spiritual leadership, who for the most part are older in years. Likewise younger means the rest of the community, who for the most part are younger in age, who are urged to accept the authority of their leaders.
