Contextual Overview

¹⁸ And it happened as He was praying alone, the disciples were with Him. And He questioned them, saying, Whom do the crowds say Me to be? ¹⁹ And answering, they said, John the Baptist; and others, Elijah; and others that some prophet of the ancients has risen again. ²⁰ And He said to them, But whom do you say Me to be? And answering, Peter said, The Christ of God. ²¹ And strictly warning them, He ordered no one to tell this, ²² saying, The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day. ²³ And He said to all, If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily. And let him follow Me. ²⁴ For whoever desires to save his life, he will lose it. But whoever loses his life for My sake, this one will save it. ²⁵ For what is a man profited gaining the whole world but destroying himself or suffering loss? ²⁶ For whoever is ashamed of Me and My Words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that one when He comes in His glory, and that of the Father, and of the holy angels. ²⁷ But truly I say to you, There are some of those standing here who in no way shall taste of death until they see the kingdom of God.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he strictly charged them, and commanded them,.... Though he highly approved of this their confession, and pronounced Peter blessed upon it; and signified that it was a discovery which flesh and blood could not make, but what was made to him his Father: yet he gave them a strict charge, and laid his commands on them,

to tell no man that thing; that he was the Messiah, and the eternal Son of God, and the true God, as well as the son of man, and really man: the reasons for this: :-.
