Some People Doubt Jesus’ Authority(Mk. 8:11-13; Lk. 12:54-56) 16 1The Phariseesa and Sadduceesb came to Jesus. They wanted to test him. So they asked him to show them a miraclec as a sign from God.
2Jesus answered, "When you people see the sunset, you know what the weather will be. If the sky is red, you say we will have good weather. 3And in the morning, if the sky is dark and red, you say that it will be a rainy day. These are signs of the weather. You see these signs in the sky and know what they mean. In the same way, you see the things that are happening now. These are also signs, but you don't know their meaning. 4It is the evil and sinful people who want to see a miracle as a sign from God. But no miracle will be done to prove anything to them. The only sign will be the miracle that happened to Jonahd." Then Jesus went away from there.
Jesus’ Followers Misunderstand Him(Mk. 8:14-21) 5Jesus and his followers went across the lake. But the followers forgot to bring bread. 6Jesus said to the followers, "Be careful! Guard against the yeaste of the Phariseesa and the Sadduceesb."
7The followers discussed the meaning of this. They said, "Did Jesus say this because we forgot to bring bread?"
8Jesus knew that they were talking about this. So he asked them, "Why are you talking about not having bread? Your faith is small. 9Do you still not understand? Remember the five loaves of bread that fed the 5000 people and the many baskets you filled with the bread that was left? 10And remember the seven loaves of bread that fed the 4000 people and the many baskets you filled that time? 11So how could you think that I am concerned about bread? I am telling you to be careful and guard against the yeast of the Pharisees and the Sadducees."
12Then the followers understood what Jesus meant. He was not telling them to guard against the yeast used in bread. He was telling them to guard against the teaching of the Pharisees and the Sadducees.
Peter Says Jesus Is the Messiah(Mk. 8:27-30; Lk. 9:18-21) 13Jesus went to the area of Caesarea Philippi. He said to his followers, "Who do people say I amf?"
14They answered, "Some people say you are John the Baptizerg. Others say you are Elijahh. And some say you are Jeremiahi or one of the prophetsj."
15Then Jesus said to his followers, "And who do you say I am?"
16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Messiahk, the Son of the living God."
17Jesus answered, "You are blessed, Simon son of Jonah. No one taught you that. My Father in heaven showed you who I am. 18So I tell you, you are Peterl. And I will build my churchm on this rock. The power of deathn will not be able to defeat my church. 19I will give you the keys to God's kingdomo. When you speak judgment here on earth, that judgment will be God's judgment. When you promise forgiveness here on earth, that forgiveness will be God's forgiveness."p
20Then Jesus warned his followers not to tell anyone he was the Messiah.
Jesus Says He Must Die(Mk. 8:31-9:1; Lk. 9:22-27) 21From that time Jesus began telling his followers that he must go to Jerusalem. He explained that the older Jewish leaders, the leading priests, and the teachers of the law would make him suffer many things. And he told his followers that he must be killed. Then, on the third day, he would be raised from death.
22Peter took Jesus away from the other followers to talk to him alone. He began to criticize him. He said, "God save you from those sufferings, Lord! That will never happen to you!"
23Then Jesus said to Peter, "Get away from me, Satanq! You are not helping me! You don't care about the same things God does. You care only about things that people think are important."
24Then Jesus said to his followers, "If any of you want to be my follower, you must stop thinking about yourself and what you want. You must be willing to carry the crossr that is given to you for following me. 25Any of you who try to save the life you have will lose it. But you who give up your life for me will find true life. 26It is worth nothing for you to have the whole world if you yourself are lost. You could never pay enough to buy back your life. 27The Son of Mans will come again with his Father's gloryt and with his angels. And he will reward everyone for what they have done. 28Believe me when I say that there are some people standing here who will see the Son of Man coming with his kingdom before they die."
aPharisee A person who belonged to a Jewish religious group that claimed to follow carefully all Jewish laws and customs.
bSadducees A leading Jewish religious group. They accepted only the first five books of the Old Testament and believed that people will not live again after death.
cmiracle An amazing act done by the power of God.
d16:4 Jonah A prophet in the Old Testament. After three days in a big fish he came out alive, just as Jesus would come out from the tomb on the third day.
eyeast The part of bread dough that makes it rise. Sometimes it is used as a symbol of bad influence.
f16:13 I am Literally, “the Son of Man is.”
gJohn the Baptizer The man God chose to tell people about Christ’s coming and to prepare them by warning them to change their lives and by baptizing them (see “baptize”) as a sign of their decision to change. Read Mt. 3; Mk. 1:1-11; Lk. 1:5-25, 57-80; 3:1-18.
hElijah A very important Israelite leader and prophet who spoke for God during a 25-year period ending about 850 b.c. In the time of Jesus, the Jews were expecting Elijah to come again before the Messiah. See Mal. 4:5-6.
iJeremiah A man who spoke for God about 600 b.c.
jprophet A person who speaks a message from God. Many of the books in the Old Testament are messages spoken or written by “the prophets,” who were some of those God chose to speak for him. God often used dreams or visions to tell or show his prophets what they should say.
kMessiah A Hebrew word that has the same meaning as the Greek word Christ (see “Christ”). It was a title for the kings of God’s people in the Old Testament and for the special king God promised to send as a “savior” to defeat evil and establish the reign of God. Many prophets made it clear that this new kingdom would be eternal; that is, not only would the promised Messiah bring about a time of justice and right living among God’s people here on earth, but also his kingdom would extend beyond this world to life forever with God. However, most Jews of the first century expected the Messiah to be a political ruler here on earth who would defeat the other nations and return the nation of Israel to a position of great glory and power. But God intended his Messiah to establish a new “Israel,” an eternal kingdom that would bless all the nations.
l16:18 Peter The Greek name “Peter,” like the Aramaic name “Cephas,” means “rock.”
mchurch Literally, “assembly” or “community,” the people who have been brought together as God’s family through their common faith in Jesus Christ. The word often refers to a group of believers who meet together or who live in the same area, but it is also used to mean the worldwide community of all believers in Christ.
n16:18 power of death Literally, “gates of Hades.”
oGod’s kingdom The “reign” or “rule” of God over all people who submit to him by accepting Jesus as the Messiah (the appointed king), who represents God’s kingdom on earth. Jesus was the perfect example of submission to the will of God. When people give control of their lives to Jesus, they become part of God’s kingdom and begin to enjoy the blessings he has promised his people from the beginning. (Note that in Matthew this term also translates the Greek word “kingdom” by itself or the phrase, “the kingdom of the heavens,” which was used by Jews as a way to avoid saying the divine name.)
p16:19 When you speak … God’s forgiveness Literally, “Whatever you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will have been loosed in heaven.”
q16:23 Satan Name for the devil meaning “the enemy.” Jesus means that Peter was talking like Satan.
rcross The wooden post that Romans used to execute criminals. It is a symbol of shame, suffering and death. Just as Jesus was willing to suffer death on a cross for all people, so he asks his followers to be willing to give up their lives for him.
sSon of Man The name that Jesus most often used for himself. The phrase in Hebrew or Aramaic means “human being” or “mankind,” but in Dan. 7:13-14 it is used of a future savior and king, and this was later understood to be the Messiah, the one God would send to save his people.
tglory A word that refers to the special qualities of God. Often it means brightness, referring to the way he appears to people. Sometimes it means majesty or power, referring to a kind of greatness that cannot be compared to anything in human experience. It can also include the ideas of wealth, honor, fame, or respect, especially in expressions of praise.
