Context of Mark 8:27
25After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly. 26And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town. And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying to them, Who do men say that I am? 28And they answered, John the Baptist: but some say, Elijah; and others, One of the prophets. 29And he saith to them, But who say ye that I am? And Peter answereth and saith to him, Thou art the Christ.
