rwp - Christhood

rwp@Matthew:16:17 @{Blessed art thou} (\makarios ei\)...in the Messiahship or Christhood of...--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.
