The evidence is lacking for an official government policy against Christians (in Peter's letters) that are like the persecutions during the reigns of these three emperors. Instead, there were spasmodic and general outbursts against Christians during the first century.

Front 5

What is the type of persecution going on in 1 Peter?

Back 5

1 Peter says nothing about Christians suffering physically for their faith. The focus is on the verbal abuse and discrimination they receive because of their Christian commitment (4:3–4). Of course, verbal abuse easily leads to physical mistreatment, and it is possible that some of the believers to whom Peter wrote were suffering physical abuse for their faith as well (cf. 2:18–20).
