2 Peter 03 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Fire

Fire is related to destruction and, because of this, it is associated with punishment.

Day of the Lord

The exact time of the coming day of the Lord will come as a surprise to the world. This is what the simile "like a thief in the night" means. Because of this, Christians are to be prepared for the coming of the Lord. (See: rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/dayofthelord and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-simile)
