1 Peter 1:24 in context

The verses around it, from 1 Peter 1.

20 He was known before the foundation of the world, but was revealed in the last times for your sake.

21 Through Him you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him; and so your faith and hope are in God.

22 Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth so that you have a genuine love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from a pure heart.

23 For you have been born again, not of perishable seed, but of imperishable, through the living and enduring word of God.

24 For, “All flesh is like grass, and all its glory like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall,

25 but the word of the Lord stands forever.” And this is the word that was proclaimed to you.
