here is a take from Oswald Chambers:

what sruck me from this is the 'limitlessness' of Christ's message and offer.
my thoughts as I journey to discover what God and the Church want me to do with my passion to serve in the Church of England
I have always been impressed by Barclays work considering 'universalism'. I often have an open mind when considering the word, phrase, theme of' 'chosen' in Scripture. It seems to me that God loves each individual, yet we are not all able or wanting to know that love and accept it. So when this passage defines that Peter is speaking to those 'chosen' I accept that he is speaking to those who have accepted Gods love.
