In which you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you are in heaviness through manifold trials:
All Commentaries on 1 Peter 1:6 Go To 1 Peter 1
Clement Of Alexandria
AD 215
Though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations; that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than that of gold which perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise, and honour, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ; whom, having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable, and full of glory, receiving the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls."
