Summary: As the first comparative study of Colossians and 1 Peter, this book fills the need for a more refined understanding of the new existence and moral enablement by each epistle s author.

It provides needed tools on theological anthropology and moral enablement opening new research avenues for interpreting Colossians in the light of 4QInstruction and 1 Peter in the light of the Hodayot.
