Commentary

Commentary on 1 Peter 2:22

Theological / Devotional

Did no sin. A quotation from Isa. 53:9. For a discussion of the sinlessness of Christ see Vol. V, p. 918.

Guile. Or, “deceit” (see on v. 1). There was nothing deceptive about the words of Christ, no subterfuge to alleviate personal discomfort and suffering. Compare Rev. 14:5.

Mouth. Because Christ’s thoughts were pure, no “guile” could come from His mouth. It is “out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh” (Matt. 12:34).
