Peter’s Confession of Christ

¹³ Now when Jesus went into the ^[a]region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”^{(A) 14} And they answered, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah, or [just] one of the prophets.” ¹⁵ He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” ¹⁶ Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed), the Son of the living God.”
