Matthew 16:16
_ _ And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God — He does not say, “Scribes and Pharisees, rulers and people, are all perplexed; and shall we, unlettered fishermen, presume to decide?” But feeling the light of his Master’s glory shining in his soul, he breaks forth — not in a tame, prosaic acknowledgment, “I believe that Thou art,” etc. — but in the language of adoration — such as one uses in worship, “THOU ART THE CHRIST, THE SON OF THE LIVING GOD!” He first owns Him the promised Messiah (see on Matthew 1:16); then he rises higher, echoing the voice from heaven — “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased”; and in the important addition — “Son of the LIVING GOD” — he recognizes the essential and eternal life of God as in this His Son — though doubtless without that distinct perception afterwards vouchsafed. |
