1 PETER 1:10 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you:”
Concerning this salvation, the prophets, who spoke of the grace that was to come to you, searched intently and with the greatest care — the prophets (prophētes) of the Old Testament who prophesied about future grace are portrayed as engaged in intense inquiry (exeraun... akribōs), earnestly seeking to understand what their own prophecies signified. The 'grace that was to come to you' (charis eis hymas eperchoumenē) locates salvation in the future from their perspective but as present for the recipients of Peter's letter.
