Benedikt Peters

Benedikt Peters ist ein schwedisch-schweizerischer Bibellehrer, Hebraist und Autor im konservativ-evangelikalen und freikirchlichen Raum.

Für heutige Bibelleser bietet er fundierte Auslegungen zu biblischen Büchern, die altsprachliche Texttreue mit leicht verständlicher Erklärung verbinden.
