Revelation 12:9-11 9 And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, ”Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night. 11 “And they overcame him 30

(�� [��]� �� = suffering || Noun: Neuter Genitive Plural). Genitive of Description. "An unusual construction with the genitive rather than the usual ta auta pathemata, perhaps as Hofmann suggests, 'the same tax of sufferings' ('the same things in sufferings')."

Peter's point is that t/Christian family (brethren) suffers t/same sort of attacks and persecutions and sufferings no matter where they live. 2 Timothy 3:12 And indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. We suffer together. When someone mocks you or gives you a hard time because of your relationship to X – you are experiencing t/same thing that believers have experienced for nearly 2k years! As Peter said earlier (4:12-16) . . . . Listen – pagans don't like it that you don't live and act and believe like they do. They hate it! Go to 4:3-5. Behind your persecution is t/hand of Satan who wants you to become weary, timid, falter in t/race. Hebrews 13:3 Remember the prisoners, as though in prison with them, and those who are ill-treated, since you yourselves also are in the body. When one member suffers, all suffer. 31
