He had not yet grasped jesus’ true messianic purpose. Yet, he called judas friend even when he knew he would betray him.
Jesus' Agony in The Garden According to all four Gospels
The words indicate a sudden movement (ὁ δὲ ἐπιστραφεὶς), accompanied by a keen searching look at his disciples.then he singles out peter, and addresses to him, in their presence, the severe rebuke, get thee behind me, satan:
Jesus rebukes peter in the garden. Fast forward to peter cutting the servants ear (john 18:10), it's the same issue. When you look at verse 22, the bible says that peter pulled jesus aside and began to rebuke him. It is also a word describing how christians brothers are to relate to each other in a spirit of forgiveness:
But while jesus wasn't concerned about helping himself, he was concerned about malchus keeping his ear, and also about rebuking peter's violence. At some point, jesus took three of them—peter, james and john— to a place separated from the rest. Moreover, one in the group is related to malchus, whose ear peter cut off.
Because of the closeness he felt to christ, peter could not humanly accept the fact that christ would have to die. But the rebuke to peter in mt 16:22 seems especially strong because he rebukes him as if satan himself is standing there. Peter needed an immediate attitude adjustment, which he made.
In suggesting that jesus resist god's will, peter was imitating satan who made the same suggestion to the first couple in the garden of eden. A:jesus rebukes peter in mark 8:33, saying to him, get behind me satan, for thou savourest not the things of god, but the things of men. peter had just rebuked jesus for speaking of his. Peter loved jesus and was very attached to him and to think of his death was unacceptable.
Jesus recognized the suggestion for what it really was and immediately rejected it, at the same time, rebuking peter for it. Another example of this is found in john 13:27. Peter still didn't fully understand that jesus had to die for the sins of the whole world so we could escape hell and be with him forever.
Peter was inadvertently being used of satan in thinking he was protecting jesus. Jesus called peter “satan” when he tried to keep jesus from going to the cross. 9:25), diseases (luke 4:39) , and the elemental forces of nature (mark 4:39).
The great confession of peter had laid the foundations of the church as such. When peter said, “from strangers,” jesus said to him, “then the sons are exempt. Then, ‘after singing praises, they go out to the mount of olives.’ they head eastward to a garden called gethsemane, where jesus is accustomed to goingonce they arrive at this pleasant spot among the olive trees, jesus leaves eight of the apostles behind.
But you can't call him a coward. So the charge is leveled against peter: In contradistinction to the varying opinions of even those best disposed towards christ, it openly declared that jesus was the very christ of god, the fulfilment of all old testament prophecy, the heir of old testament promise, the realization of the old testament hope for israel, and, in israel, for all mankind.
Jesus responds to peter in mark 8:33 we are told that jesus rebuked peter. Innocently, peter was doing the same thing. Well, fear of pain and death will do that to most people, and peter was no exception.
The word “rebuked” in the greek carries with it the meaning of “censure, warn, or admonish.” the words jesus used in both accounts were “get thee behind me satan.” “stay awake, watch!” the implication is that they’re about to learn something, a lesson is to be taught. He offers several rebukes to peter here.
17:1), and the agony in the garden (matt. The οϋν here is introduced between simon and peter, as if to imply that it was not merely simon son of jonas, but simon the rock, the man of mighty impulsive passion, ready, as he said a few hours since, to go with his master to prison and to death. Here jesus asked them to watch with him and pray so they would not fall into temptation (matthew 26:41), but they fell asleep.
Peter resists jesus when he says that he is going to wash peter’s feet. As jesus and his disciples enter the garden of gethsemane, he tells them: But, as we know, they didn’t stay awake, they fell asleep, not because the hour was late and they were tired after a long day, nor even because of the wine.
“no,” said peter, “you shall never wash my feet.” john 13:8 jesus instructs peter, “unless i wash you, you have no part with me.” peter fails to stand by jesus side and falls asleep in the garden of gethsemanie right before jesus is killed. Satan seized on peter’s emotional tendencies and influenced him to rebuke christ as he did. And when you open its mouth, you will find a shekel.
You can call peter stupid, a fool, and spiritually dense, perhaps. As the evening began, after jesus and his disciples had celebrated the passover, they came to the garden. “i saw you in the garden with him, did i not?” when peter denies this for a third time, a rooster crows, as was foretold.
Also, jesus was fully ready to die for all of us after praying in the garden, and he had been willing all along, but the human emotions naturally got to him and he had to pray the last part of it through. Jesus finishes praying with his faithful apostles. Peter was telling jesus, this is not going to happen.
So, instead, he seeks to thwart the arrest with his sword. It is forceful language and is designed to show peter that his thoughts are directly opposed to jesus' purpose and mission so that they could only have been inspired by satan. In peter's attempts to stop the lord's death, he was not helping but hindering christ's mission.
Peter’s galilean accent is an indication that his denial is false. But in his spiritual dullness, peter doesn't perceive that jesus' arrest and crucifixion is god's will to redeem mankind. However, so that we do not offend them, go to the sea and throw in a hook, and take the first fish that comes up;
The lord came for this very hour, and to rebel would be against the father's will. They alone witnessed the raising of the daughter of jairus (luke 8:51), the transfiguration on the mount (matt. Jesus chose twelve apostles, and from the twelve he chose three — peter, james, and john — to be his most intimate friends.
Point being, any one who kept jesus from fulfilling his appointed task, regardless of their standing or heart condition, was against the greater good. Jesus' mission for coming to earth was a healing one, the bible says, meant to lead people to peace with god, within themselves, and with others.
