MATTHEW—NOTE ON Matthew 16:21 The Suffering of the Messiah Revealed. Jesus reveals the nature of his messiahship. He is a suffering Messiah. His disciples must suffer with him (Matthew 16:21). Still, the transfiguration (Matthew 17:1) shows who Jesus really is: the Son of God. And believers, who are themselves sons of the kingdom, have the same privileges as Jesus (Matthew 17:14).
