I am loving this. There is so much to love about Peter. He’s so human and one of the most well developed characters in the New Testament. This commentary made me think about him in new ways.

I love knowing that he is the only person Jesus ever called “Blessed” individually.

I love hearing the voice say: and YOU are Peter...

And I love the reference to Gen 32:28 which hints that Peter has striven with men and God and thus can be renamed.

Thank you for posting this.
