Peter's Confession of Christ

Noah Webster Bible

Mat 16:13–20

13 When Jesus came into the borders of Cesarea Phillippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Who do men say that I the Son of man am?
14 And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.
15 He saith to them, But who say ye that I am?
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said to him, Blessed art thou, Simon-Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven.
18 And I say also to thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church: and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
19 And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatever thou shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven; and whatever thou shalt loose on earth, shall be loosed in heaven.
20 Then he charged his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

27 And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Cesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am?
28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say , Elijah; and others, One of the prophets,
29 And he saith to them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith to him, Thou art the Christ.
30 And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

18 And it came to pass, as he was in retirement praying, his disciples were with him; and he asked them, saying, Who say the people that I am?
19 They answering, said, John the Baptist; but some say , Elijah; and others say , that one of the ancient prophets is risen again.
20 He said to them, But who say ye that I am? Peter answering, said, Christ of God.
21 And he strictly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing,
