The 17 verse is all one with the 20 verse of the 2 chapter. Verse 17. For it is better, if the will of God be so, that ye suffer for well-doing, then for evil-doing. Verse 18. For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit. Verse 19. By which also he went, and preached unto the Spirits in prison. Verse 20. Which sometimes were disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the Ark was a preparing; wherein few (that is, eight) souls were saved by water. Verse 21. The like figure whereunto, even baptism, doth also now save us, (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Verse 22. Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God, Angels, and authorities, and powers, being made subject unto him.
