In 1 Peter 5:1-6, Peter exhorts church leaders to shepherd God’s flock with humility and a willing heart, not for personal gain but as examples to the believers. He reminds them that they will receive the crown of glory when the Chief Shepherd, Jesus Christ, appears. Peter also encourages younger believers to submit to their elders and calls everyone to clothe themselves with humility, as God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble. He concludes by urging believers to humble themselves under God’s mighty hand, trusting that He will exalt them in due time. Key themes include humble leadership, submission, and God’s grace to the humble.
