Albert Barnes Commentary 2 Peter 1:11

"for thus shall be richly supplied unto you the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ." — 2 Peter 1:11 (ASV)

For so an entrance. In this manner you will be admitted into the kingdom of God.

Shall be ministered unto you. The same Greek word is used here that occurs in 2 Peter 1:5, where it is translated add. See the note on 2 Peter 1:5.

It is probable that the apostle had a recollection of that word in mind; and the sense may be that, "if they would lead on the virtues and graces referred to in their beautiful order, those graces would attend them in a radiant train to the mansions of immortal glory and blessedness." See Doddridge on this passage.

Abundantly. (Greek: richly). That is, the most ample entrance would be furnished; there would be no doubt about their admission there. The gates of glory would be thrown wide open, and they, adorned with all the bright train of graces, would be admitted there.

Into the everlasting kingdom, etc. This refers to heaven. It is called everlasting here, not because the Lord Jesus will preside over it as the Mediator (compare 1 Corinthians 14:24; see also the note on this verse), but because, in the form that will be established when he shall have given it up to the Father, it will endure forever.

The empire of God, which the Redeemer will set up over the souls of his people, will endure to all eternity. The object of the plan of redemption was to secure their allegiance to God, and that allegiance will never terminate.
