1 PETER 4:13 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ’s sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy.”
But rejoice inasmuch as you participate in the sufferings of Christ, that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed — the paradoxical exhortation to rejoice (chairō) in participation (koinōnia) with Christ's sufferings is grounded in the anticipation of eschatological 'revelation' (apokalypsis) of his glory (doxa), when believers' own joy will be complete (hyperperisseua, superabundant).
