1 Peter 5:4
And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

Study Note
'When the chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading crown of glory' — the title 'chief Shepherd' (archipoimenos) is unique in the New Testament, placing Jesus in a supervisory role over all human undershepherds and grounding the elders' accountability in eschatological reward rather than institutional authority. The contrast between the laurel wreath (stephanos, subject to decay) and the 'unfading crown' (amarantinon stephanon) uses the athlete's prize to describe the eschatological honor that outlasts temporal recognition. The verse belongs to a section (1 Peter 5:1–4) where Peter identifies himself as a 'fellow elder and witness of the sufferings of Christ,' deploying apostolic solidarity rather than authoritative command. The 'appearing' (phanerōthentes) of the chief Shepherd anchors pastoral ministry in eschatological accountability, preventing both burnout and abuse.
