 {Blessed art thou} (makarios ei). A beatitude for Peter.
Jesus accepts the confession as true. Thereby Jesus on this
solemn occasion solemnly claims to be the Messiah, the Son of the
living God, his deity in other words. The disciples express
positive conviction in the Messiahship or Christhood of Jesus as
opposed to the divided opinions of the populace. "The terms in
which Jesus speaks of Peter are characteristic--warm, generous,
unstinted. The style is not that of an ecclesiastical editor
laying the foundation for church power, and prelatic pretentions,
but of a noble-minded Master eulogizing in impassioned terms a
loyal disciple" (Bruce). The Father had helped Peter get this
spiritual insight into the Master's Person and Work.
