The Bible is a collection of sacred texts or scriptures that Jews and Christians consider to be a product of divine inspiration and a record of the relationship between God and humans. Many different authors contributed to the Bible.<\/p>\n

One of the books of the Bible is 1 Peter. It was written by the Apostle Peter, who was one of the twelve disciples of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

The author of 1 Peter is unknown, but it is traditionally ascribed to the apostle Peter.<\/p>\n

Who wrote 1 Peter and why? <\/h2>\n

Although the text of 1 Peter identifies Peter as its author, the language, dating, style, and structure of the letter have led most scholars to conclude that it is pseudonymous. The authorship of 1 Peter has traditionally been attributed to the Apostle Peter because it bears his name and identifies him as its author (1:1). However, the evidence suggests that someone else wrote the letter in Peter’s name.<\/p>\n
