# Connecting Statement:
|
|
|
|
Peter continues teaching his readers about holiness and obedience.
|
|
|
|
# Therefore, put aside all evil, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all slander
|
|
|
|
These sinful actions are spoken of as if they were objects that people could throw away. The word "Therefore" here refers back to everything that Peter has said about being holy and obedient. Alternate translation: "So then, stop being evil, deceptive, hypocritical, envious, and slanderous" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
