2 Peter 3:18

But grow in the grace and knowledge ¹  of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be the honor both now and on ²  that eternal day. ³ 

Ps 92:12; Ho 14:5; Mal 4:2; Mt 6:13; Mt 28:20; Joh 5:23; Joh 17:3; 2Co 4:6; Eph 1:17; Eph 4:15; Php 3:8; Col 1:10; Col 3:10; 2Th 1:3; 2Ti 4:18; 1Pe 2:2; 1Pe 5:10,11; 2Pe 1:3,8; 2Pe 2:20; Jude 1:25; Re 1:6; Re 5:9-14

¹ tn The term “knowledge” (γνῶσις, gnwsis) used here is not the same as is found in 2 Pet 1:2, 3, 8; 2:20. This term is found in 1:5 and 1:6.

² tn Or “until.”

³ tc ‡ The vast bulk of mss add ἀμήν (amhn, “amen”) at the end of this letter, as they do almost all the rest of the NT books (only Acts, James, and 3 John lack a majority of witnesses supporting a concluding ἀμήν). The omission in B 1241 1243 1739* 1881 2298 appears to be original, although the fact that some of the best and earliest Alexandrian witnesses (Ì⁷² א A C P Ψ 33 co), along with the Byzantine text and early versions (vg sy), add the particle renders such a judgment less than iron-clad. NA²⁷ places the word in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

tn Grk “day of eternity.”
