Mark 8:29-33

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 8:32

And he spake the saying openly ( παῤῥησία ); literally, without reserve. This sudden announcement excited St. Peter. It was a new and startling communication. Peter took him, and began to rebuke him . The word προσλαβόμενος indicates that he "took hold of him," to lead him apart, as though to have the opportunity of warning him with the greater familiarity and secrecy. So say St. Chrysostom and others. Peter would not have his own confession of Christ thus evacuated, as it were;... read more

Covert temptation. This scene has, of course, certain features connected with it which cannot be imitated by ordinary persons, or by mere men. Christ exercised a Divine insight and authority. But there are certain principles illustrated. We see— I. HOW IT PRESENTS ITSELF . 1 . Under the guise of friendship. The love may be real in the individuals who are the instruments of temptation, but their knowledge is not sufficient, or their moral character not so, high as it... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Mark 8:33

But he turning about, and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter. The words indicate a sudden movement ( ὁ δὲ ἐπιστραφεὶς ), accompanied by a keen searching look at his disciples. Then he singles out Peter, and addresses to him, in their presence, the severe rebuke, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou savourest not ( οὐ φρονεῖς )— literally , thou mindest not— the things of God, but the things of men . The form of words is the same as that used by our Lord to Satan... read more

Mark 8:31-33. And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer The disciples being now convinced that Jesus was the Messiah, the Son of God, and having made confession of him as such, they were prepared to receive this further and equally important discovery, which they could not have borne before, without being so offended as to forsake him; and which, perhaps, they could hardly have borne now, had they thoroughly understood, and fully believed, Christ’s words; for they certainly... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Mark 8:27-33

73. Peter’s confession of the Messiah (Matthew 16:13-23; Mark 8:27-33; Luke 9:18-22)Jesus and the apostles travelled up to Caesarea Philippi, in the far north of Palestine. While there, Jesus asked the apostles who they believed him to be. Peter, probably speaking for the group, replied that he was the promised Messiah, the Son of God (Matthew 16:13-16).Delighted at this insight, Jesus told the group (through words addressed to their spokesman Peter) that they would be the foundation on which... read more
