Peter’s Confession of the Messiah
18 While he was praying in private(A) and his disciples were with him, he asked them, “Who do the crowds say that I am?”
19 They answered, “John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, that one of the ancient prophets has come back.”[a](B)
20 “But you,” he asked them, “who do you say that I am?”
Peter answered, “God’s Messiah.”(C)
His Death and Resurrection Predicted
21 But he strictly warned and instructed them to tell this to no one,(D) 22 saying,(E) “It is necessary that the Son of Man(F) suffer many things(G) and be rejected(H) by the elders, chief priests, and scribes,(I) be killed, and be raised the third day.”(J)
