Grammatically, as usual, many options are open to us; but is the most
likely suggestion that Peter is expanding on "ISOTIMON"?
I was taught that EN DIKAIOSUNE was adverbial with ISOTIMON ...LAXOUSIN
PISTIN with the sense as following:
" God is just/righteous to give you a faith as <<equally precious>> as I,
Peter the apostle..." {if He was less righteous you might not have had the
opportunity to receive such a precious faith}
This could be putting too much weight on one word, but it seems to me that
the ISO part of ISOTIMON would be redundant/inexplicable otherwise.
What think ye all of this from an exegetical point of view?
