NASB | Matthew 16:23 But He turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on God's interests, but man's." |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Matthew 16:23 But Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on things of God, but on things of man." |
Subject: Get behind me, who? |
Bible Note: And can't say why Jesus said this at this time exactly. But the main leason to it is. Jesus can't see satan behind Him. That goes for us christians if Satan is behind us our focus can be on Jesus. If he is in front of us and can see "him" then we can and will be tempted without our eyes on Jesus. |
