11. Why is it you don’t understand that when I told you, ‘Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,’ it wasn’t about bread? ”
12. Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the yeast in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
13. When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is? ”
14. And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
15. “But you,” He asked them, “who do you say that I am? ”
16. Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God! ”
17. And Jesus responded, “Simon son of Jonah, you are blessed because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father in heaven.
18. And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the forces of Hades will not overpower it.
19. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth is already bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth is already loosed in heaven.”
20. And He gave the disciples orders to tell no one that He was the Messiah.
21. From then on Jesus began to point out to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, be killed, and be raised the third day.
22. Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, “Oh no, Lord! This will never happen to You! ”
23. But He turned and told Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me because you’re not thinking about God’s concerns, but man’s.”
