  • PER176 Peter acknowledges Jesus as the Messiah

    Pericope 176 recounts Peter's confession that Jesus is the Messiah, reported only by John (6.62-71). After a mass departure of disciples, Jesus asks the Twelve about their commitment. Peter responds with a remarkable proclamation of faith. The article explores the tension between divine sovereignty and human freedom, and concludes with the mention of Judas Iscariot, a reminder that nothing escapes God's gaze.

  • ADA025 The appointment of the Seven and the organization of the early Church

    Acts 6,1-7 relates the first internal crisis of the Jerusalem Church, linked to the unequal distribution to the widows. To remedy it, the Twelve propose appointing seven men full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom. This foundational decision distinguishes the ministries while affirming their complementarity, and is accompanied by remarkable growth of the nascent Christian community.
