성경구절

마태복음 4:18

“돌”을 상징하는 그리스어 Πετρος (Petros)에서 유래되었습니다. 신약성경에 베드로는 갈릴리 지방의 어부였던 원래 시몬이라 불렸던 사람입니다. 예수님이 그를 12 제자중 하나로 부른 후에 그의 이름은 “베드로”로 바뀌었습니다. 예수님이 유대인들에게 잡히신 후에 베드로는 예수님을 세 번이나 부인했지만 후에는 회개하고 복음을 전하기 위해 그의 전 인생을 헌신합니다. 네로가 통치하던 때에, 그는 거꾸로 매달려 십자가 형을 받았다고 전해집니다. 그의 이야기는 주로 4대 복음서와 사도행전에 나와 있습니다.
