Peter the Apostle in the Gospel of Luke and in the Acts of the Apostles
Hanáková, Kamila ; Brož, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Ryšková, Mireia (referee)
Apoštol Petr v Lukášově evangeliu a ve Skutcích apoštolů Kamila Hanáková Abstract The bachelor's thesis deals with Saint Peter, included by Jesus Christ among his apostles and from the first given a privileged position as the "rock" on which Jesus was building his church. This made Saint Peter one of the most important figures in early Church history. One of the reasons why I chose Saint Peter as a topic is his personality, generally known to be on the energetic and intense side. His thinking, however, is characterised by naiveté, fear, a sense of justice and honest regret. All this makes him relatable in my eyes as his views mirror those of a regular person. Although he did not seem to be particularly religious in the beginning, through his faith he soon became aware of the magnificence of Jesus Christ. I focus on Saint Peter as depicted mostly in the Gospel of Luke and the Acts of the Apostles as I believe these books illustrate his personality and activities well. Keywords Peter the Apostle, the first disciple, rock, church, Jesus Christ, faith, Goespel of Luke, Acts of the Apostles.
