1 Peter 3:4

Context
3:4 but the inner person 1  of the heart, the lasting beauty of a gentle and tranquil spirit, which is precious in God’s sight.

1 Peter 3:15

Context
3:15 But set Christ 2  apart 3  as Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about the hope you possess. 4 

1 tn Grk “the hidden man.” KJV’s “the hidden man of the heart,” referring to a wife, could be seriously misunderstood by the modern English reader.

2 tc Most later mss (P Ï) have θεόν (qeon, “God”) instead of Χριστόν (Criston; “Christ”) here. But Χριστόν is widely supported by excellent and early witnesses (Ì72 א A B C Ψ 33 1739 al latt sy co), and as a less common idiom better explains the rise of the other reading.

3 tn Or “sanctify Christ as Lord.”

4 tn Grk “the hope in you.”
