Luke 9:20
He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.
He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am?.... Which was the main thing he had in view in this private conference; and in order to introduce which, he puts the former question:
Peter answering: in the name of the rest of the disciples, they assenting to it:
said, The Christ of God; The Persic version reads, "Christ God"; the Messiah, who is the Son of God, and God over all, blessed for ever. The Cambridge copy of Beza's reads, "the Christ, the Son of God".
