2 | Does the Bible refer to Peter being hung | NT general | John Ryals | 227994 | ||
The Bible only mentions the deaths of two apostles, James who was put to death by Herod Agrippa I in 44 AD and Judas Iscariot who committed suicide shortly after the death of Christ. The details of the deaths of three of the apostles, (John, the Beloved, Bartholomew and Simon the Canaanite) are not known at all, either by tradition or early historians. The deaths of the other seven apostles are known by tradition or the writings of early Christian historians. According to traditions and the Bible, eight of the Apostles died as Martyrs. At least two of the Apostle's Peter and Andrew were crucified. Simon surnamed Peter died 33-34 years after the death of Christ. According to Smith's Bible Dictionary there is "satisfactory evidence that he and Paul were the founders of the Church at Rome, and died in that city. The time and manner of the apostle's martyrdom are less certain. According to the early writers, he died at or about the same time with Paul, and in the Neronian persecution, AD 67,68. All agree that he was crucified. origin says that Peter felt himself to be unworthy to be put to death in the same manner as his Master, and was therefore at his request, crucified with his head down. I pray this information is useful to the furtherance of the Gospel for Christ. May God Bless You |
