This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

11. λυομένων possibly implies that creation is even now declining to its fall: but compare the present tenses of τήκεται, κατοικεῖ below.

ποταπούς, a late form and use: ποδαπός “of what nation” is the classical word. Our word occurs elsewhere in N.T. and in the Apocalypse of Peter.

ὑπάρχειν, how ought you to be equipped—ready for the catastrophe when it comes.

ἀναστροφαῖς, εὐσεβείαις, plural as ἀσελγείαις several times above.
