2 PETER 1:15 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 1
“Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after my decease to have these things always in remembrance.”
And I will make every effort so that after my departure you may be able at any time to recall these things — the written word outlasts the spoken word; Peter ensures that his apostolic witness persists after his death. The departure (exodus) echoes the Exodus typology and prepares readers for the glory-transfiguration testimony to follow. Writing becomes a form of pastoral presence.
