matthew 16:22 And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, "God forbid [it], Lord! This shall never happen to You."

< Matthew 16:21
Matthew 16:23 >

      22. Then Peter took him--aside, apart from the rest; presuming on the distinction just conferred on him; showing how unexpected and distasteful to them all was the announcement.
      and began to rebuke him--affectionately, yet with a certain generous indignation, to chide Him.
      saying, Be it far from thee: this shall not be unto thee--that is, "If I can help it": the same spirit that prompted him in the garden to draw the sword in His behalf (Joh 18:10).

JFB.
