as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord, whose children you now are, if you do well, and are not put in fear by any terror.
and are not afraid with any amazement: This is not the fear (phobo) of verse 2; but rather it refers to phobeomai, meaning to "be afraid; to be struck with fear; to be seized with alarm" (Thayer 655-2-5399) (See also verse 14.) "Amazement" means "to be afraid with terror...to be put in fear by any terror" (Thayer 556-2-4423). The passage seems to indicate a danger for wives of unbelieving husbands. Alford says, "As long as the believing wives are doing good, they need not be afraid with any sudden terror of the account which their unbelieving husbands may exact from them" (Wuest, I Peter 82).
