But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
Pero ustedes son linaje escogido, real sacerdocio, nación santa, pueblo adquirido por Dios, para que anuncien las virtudes de aquel que los llamó de las tinieblas a su luz admirable.
Dios nos escogió como su pueblo especial para proclamar sus maravillas al mundo.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the first century AD, the Apostle Peter wrote his letter to Christians scattered across Asia Minor who were enduring persecution and social marginalization, drawing from Old Testament imagery to strengthen their faith. He echoes Exodus 19:5-6, where God described Israel as a holy nation and a kingdom of priests, to affirm that believers in Christ now form a new spiritual community chosen by God. This verse underscores the believers' identity as God's elect, called to proclaim His glory amid a hostile world.
