Peter’s Approaching Death

12 For this reason aI will not be negligent to remind you always of these things, bthough you know and are established in the present truth.  
13 Yes, I think it is right, aas long as I am in this tent, bto stir you up by reminding you,  
14 aknowing that shortly I must1 put off my tent, just as bour Lord Jesus Christ showed me.  
15 Moreover I will be careful to ensure that you always have a reminder of these things after my1 decease.

2 Peter 1:13

Yea—Greek, "But"; though "you know" the truth (II Peter 1:12).

this tabernacle—soon to be taken down (II Corinthians 5:1): I therefore need to make the most of my short time for the good of Christ's Church. The zeal of Satan against it, the more intense as his time is short, ought to stimulate Christians on the same ground.

by—Greek, "in" (compare II Peter 3:1).
