192:0.2 From this time on, until [[the apostles]] were [[dispersed]] by the rising [[tide]] of [[persecution]], [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] was the generally [[recognized]] head of the [[apostolic corps]]. [[Jesus]] never gave him any such [[authority]], and his fellow [[apostles]] never [[formally]] [[elected]] him to such a position of [[responsibility]]; he [[naturally]] [[assumed]] it and held it by common [[consent]] and also because he was their [[chief]] [[preacher]].
