1 Peter 1:22

Seeing ye have purified

(ηγνικοτες). Perfect active participle of αγνιζω, old verb from αγνος (pure), here with ψυχας (souls), with καρδιας (hearts) in James 4:8 as in 1 John 3:3 of moral cleansing also. See the ceremonial sense of the word as in LXX in John 11:55; Acts 21:24; Acts 21:26; Acts 24:18.In your obedience

(εν τη υπακοη). With repetition of the idea in 1 Peter 1:2; 1 Peter 1:14 (children of obedience).To the truth

(της αλεθειας). Objective genitive with which compare John 17:17; John 17:19 about sanctification in the truth and 2 Thessalonians 2:12 about believing the truth. There is cleansing power in the truth of God in Christ.Unfeigned

(ανυποκριτον). Late and rare double compound, here alone in Peter, but see James 3:17; 2 Corinthians 6:6, etc. No other kind of φιλαδελφια (brotherly love) is worth having (1 Thessalonians 4:9; Hebrews 13:1; 2 Peter 1:7).From the heart fervently

(εκ καρδιας εκτενως). Late adverb (in inscriptions, Polybius, LXX). The adjective εκτενης is more common (1 Peter 4:8).
