Every “book” on the Vatican link has an INT, an introduction describing the contents, outline, authorship, dates of publication, etc. It also has a word glossary/index.
Examples:
Matthew: “The unknown author, whom we shall continue to call Matthew for the sake of convenience,” “The post - A.D. 70 date is confirmed”
Mat 16:15
¶ He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Mat 16:16
¶ Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Mat 16:17
¶ Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.
This is who Jesus is to me.

Vatican New American Bible https://www.vatican.va/archive/ENG0839/_INDEX.HTM
Every “book” on the Vatican link has an INT, an introduction describing the contents, outline, authorship, dates of publication, etc. It also has a word glossary/index.
Examples:
Matthew: “The unknown author, whom we shall continue to call Matthew for the sake of convenience,” “The post - A.D. 70 date is confirmed”
Job: “The author of the book is not known”
Daniel: “the author, who is actually unknown”
Amen fren. Great verses right there.
So what does it mean to you when he says
"You are the Christ, the Son of the living God"
John 20:28. My Lord and my God. Same reaction as Thomas, without the doubting. ;)
