1 Peter 3:20 in Context — 1 Peter 3
18 Porque também Cristo sofreu uma vez pelos pecados, o justo pelos injustos; para que nos levasse a Deus. [Ele estava] , de fato, morto na carne, mas vivificado pelo Espírito,
19 no qual ele também foi pregar aos espíritos em prisão.
20 [Estes são] os que antigamente foram rebeldes, quando uma vez a paciência de Deus aguardava nos dias de Noé, enquanto era preparada a arca. Nela, poucas almas (isto é, oito) foram salvas por meio da água.
21 Esta é uma representação do batismo, que agora também nos salva, não como remoção da sujeira do corpo, mas sim como o pedido de boa consciência a Deus, por meio da ressurreição de Jesus Cristo.
22 Ele está à direita de Deus, depois de haver subido ao céu; e os anjos, as autoridades, e os poderes estão sob o seu comando.
