This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
These things; the doctrine before delivered concerning faith in Christ, the practice of good works, and their continuance in both.
Always; this may be joined either to
endeavour, and so relate to the apostle himself; he would always be diligent, and do his part, that they might have these things in remembrance: or rather, (according to our translation), to having
in remembrance, Peter being now near his end; and therefore this always may better refer to them that were to live after him, than to himself that was so soon to die.
In remembrance; or, to commemorate them, viz. to the benefit and edification of the church; and this includes their having them in remembrance, but implies something more.
