Peter’s Confession of Christ

²⁷ Then Jesus and His disciples went out to the villages of ^[a]Caesarea Philippi; and on the way He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that I am?”^{(A) 28} They answered Him, “John the Baptist; and others say Elijah; but others, one of the prophets.” ²⁹ And He asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter replied to Him, “You [in contrast to the others] are the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed).” ³⁰ Then Jesus strictly warned them not to tell anyone about Him.
