26 Jesus sent him home and said, “Do not go back into the village.”
27 Then Jesus and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”
28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”
29 “But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
