Context — Christ’s Passion Foretold

30And Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about Him. 31Then He began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and that He must be killed and after three days rise again.

32He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.

33But Jesus, turning and looking at His disciples, rebuked Peter and said, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men.” 34Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples, and He told them, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow Me.

Mark 8:32 Summary

[In this verse, Jesus is being very clear and honest with His disciples about what is going to happen to Him, and Peter doesn't like what he's hearing, so he tries to correct Jesus. This shows that even Jesus' closest friends didn't always understand His mission, as seen in Mark 8:31. Jesus' response to Peter, as seen in Mark 8:33, highlights the importance of trusting in God's plan, even when it's hard, as encouraged in Proverbs 3:5-6. By studying this verse, we can learn to trust in God's plan and surrender our own desires to His will, as Jesus taught in Matthew 16:24-25.]

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did Jesus speak so frankly about His suffering and death?

Jesus spoke frankly about His suffering and death to prepare His disciples for the reality of His mission, as seen in Mark 8:31, and to help them understand the true nature of His kingdom, as mentioned in Matthew 16:21-23.

What was Peter's motivation for rebuking Jesus?

Peter's motivation for rebuking Jesus was likely a desire to protect Him from harm and to avoid the difficult truth of Jesus' impending death, as seen in Mark 8:32, reflecting the natural human desire to avoid suffering, as mentioned in John 16:33.

How does this verse relate to Jesus' teachings on discipleship?

This verse sets the stage for Jesus' teachings on discipleship in Mark 8:34, where He calls His followers to deny themselves and take up their cross, emphasizing the importance of surrender and sacrifice in following Him, as also seen in Matthew 16:24-25.

What can we learn from Peter's mistake in rebuking Jesus?

We can learn from Peter's mistake that we must be careful not to let our own desires and fears cloud our understanding of God's plan, as Jesus said in Mark 8:33, and instead seek to align our thoughts with God's Word, as encouraged in Romans 12:2.

Gill's Exposition on Mark 8:32

And he spake that saying openly,.... Concerning his sufferings, death, and resurrection from the dead.

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Mark 8:32

And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am? For the exposition, see the notes at Matthew 16:13-28.

Matthew Poole's Commentary on Mark 8:32

Ver. 32,33. It is from hence manifest, that notwithstanding the confession of Peter, that he was the Christ, yet they had a very imperfect knowledge of the business of the redemption of man by the blood of Christ, and a very imperfect faith as to the hypostatical union of the Divine and human nature in the one person of the Redeemer; for had Peter known these things he would have seen a necessity of Christ’ s dying and resurrection from the dead, in order to the redemption and salvation of man, and would neither have dissuaded our Saviour from it, nor doubted of the truth of what was spoken by him, who was the Truth, and could not lie. Our Saviour’ s telling him ou froneiv, thou savourest not, might have been more favourably translated, thou understandest not, or thou mindest not, and must not be understood of a total ignorance, or regardlessness, or not relishing, but of a partial knowledge, the want of a due regard to or saviour of the things of God. Thou preferrest thy carnal affection to me, and indulgest thine own desires, to the hinderance of the honour and glory of God, and the salvation of souls, which I came to purchase by these my sufferings, and so art a Satan; an adversary, to me, who came to fulfil the will of my Father, and must not therefore give the least ear to thee, who, in what thou sayest, dost but seek and take care to please thyself. This leadeth him to the following discourse.

Trapp's Commentary on Mark 8:32

32 And he spake that saying openly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him. Ver. 32.

Ellicott's Commentary on Mark 8:32

(31-33) And he began to teach them.—See Notes on Matthew 16:21-23. The points peculiar to St. Mark are, (1) that our Lord “spake that saying openly”—the absence of any reticence in this announcement of apparent failure was what startled the disciples; and (2) the graphic touch that as He rebuked Peter, He turned and looked, not on that Apostle only, but on the whole company of the disciples.

Adam Clarke's Commentary on Mark 8:32

Verse 32. And he spake that saying] Concerning the certainty and necessity of his sufferings - openly: with great plainness, παρρησια, confidence, or emphasis, so that the disciples now began fully to understand him. This is an additional observation of St. Mark. For Peter's reproof, See Clarke on Matthew 16:22, &c.

Cambridge Bible on Mark 8:32

32. openly] i. e. not publicly, but “plainly” (“pleinli,” Wyclif) and “without disguise” Comp. John 11:14, “Then said Jesus unto them plainly, Lazarus is dead.” Before this there had been intimations of the End, but then they had been dark and enigmatical. (a) The Baptist had twice pointed Him out as the Lamb of God destined to take away the sin of the world (John 1:29). (b) At the first Passover of His public ministry He Himself had spoken to the Jews of a Temple to be destroyed and rebuilt in three days (John 2:19), and to Nicodemus of a lifting up of the Son of Man, even as Moses had lifted up the serpent in the wilderness (John 3:12-16); (c) He had intimated moreover to the Apostles that a day would come when the Bridegroom should be taken from them (Matthew 9:15), and (d) in the synagogue at Capernaum He had declared that He was about to give His flesh for the Life of the world (John 6:47-51). Now for the first time He dwelt on His awful Future distinctly, and with complete freedom of speech. And Peter] The selfsame Peter, who a moment before had witnessed so noble and outspoken a confession to his Lord’s Divinity. took him] i. e. took Him aside (and so Tyndale and Cranmer render it), by the hand or by the robe, and began earnestly and lovingly to remonstrate with Him. The idea of a suffering Messiah was abhorrent to him and to all the Twelve.
