crown of glory that fadeth not away.
4: And when the prince of pastors shall appear, you shall receive a
never fading crown of glory.
And when the chief Shepherd shall appear. The prince of the pastors -- the Lord Jesus Christ. "Peter, in the passage above, ranks himself with the elders; here he ranks Christ himself with the pastors." -- Benson. see "1 Pet 2:25". Comp. Heb 13:20.
Ye shall receive a crown of glory. A glorious crown or diadem. Comp. see "2 Tim 4:8".
That fadeth not away. This is essentially the same word, though somewhat different in form, which occurs in 1 Pet 1:4. see "1 Pet 1:4".
The word occurs nowhere else in the New Testament. Comp. "1Cor 9:25".
