Summary

In this video, I discuss the double symbolism of St. Peter as described in the Scriptures. This is related to my last video about Lucifer and the issue of how a representative or a vicar is always in a dual situation where they can become transparent to authority from above, or take authority for themselves...

Mythographer, writer, and storyteller Dr Martin Shaw takes us deep into the heart of what he calls Christian Wonder Tales. Profoundly mythic, these teaching stories range from the early saints through to the grandeur of the Round Table and Arthurian tradition. Shaw emphasises these stories as remerging providentially on time for the perils of modern life. Filled with vocation, sacrifice, and courage, these are an inheritance many of us simply didn’t know we had.

0:00.0	So, hello, everyone. Today we are going to talk about the double symbolism of St. Peter.
0:06.2	This is, of course, related to my last video on symbolism, which is the video on Lucifer,
0:11.5	and the issue of how a representative, a vicar, how someone who represents someone else,
0:18.7	who gets their authority from someone else, is always in a difficult situation, a kind of dual situation,
0:24.3	where they can take that role for themselves and become the opposer,
0:29.9	or can also be a proper messenger, a proper representative,
0:36.0	and then become what we could call the vicar of that person.
0:40.0	And so we're going to look at all that. And if you haven't watched my last video on the symbolism
0:44.3	of Lucifer, you can do that. But I think, you know, it's pretty basic. And hopefully you can
0:48.3	understand everything we're going to talk about today. So before we do that, don't forget that,
0:56.2	you know, the symbolic world, we really appreciate your support. If you can, you can go to the symbolic world.com and you can sign up. You can become a
1:02.0	free member and participate in the community, but you can also support us financially. We are also,
1:06.9	right now, we reopen the store there and we are selling in a pre-sale the new book, the new fairytale book, Jack and the Fallen Giants, which I'm extremely excited about, which, as you can tell by the title, tries to allude to the manner in which the story of Jack and the Beanstalk is related to the Nephilim, but don't worry, this is definitely a story for kids. You know, and it's only all of you symbolic masters
1:29.3	that will be able to perceive, you know,
1:31.3	what it is that we're doing in this story
1:33.3	and connecting it to biblical symbolism as well.
1:36.3	... This is Jonathan Peugeot. Welcome to the symbolic world.
1:52.0	We want to look at the symbolism of St. Peter, and so in order to do so, I think the best
2:07.5	place to start is in the text that brings the symbolism together, I think, in the most concise
2:14.1	way, and it is, of course, in the place where St. Peter recognizes Christ.
2:21.4	All right, so this, of course, in Matthew 16, this is where we're going to look.
2:25.6	And so he said to them, Christ said to them, but who do you say that I am?
