Speaking about this passage, Martin Luther commented that 1 Peter 3:18-22 is a strange text and certainly more obscure than any other in the New Testament and one he did not know for sure what the apostle meant. However, we come to an understanding through this text that Christ died for the unrighteous and has called us to be made alive in the spirit and proclaim it through baptism in submission to our Lord, Jesus Christ.
