According to Christian tradition, Peter
was crucified in Rome under Emperor
Nero. He is traditionally counted as
the first Bishop of Rome‍—‌or pope‍—‌and
also by Eastern Christian tradition
as the first Patriarch of Antioch.

The ancient Christian churches all
venerate Peter as a major saint and
as the founder of the Church of
Antioch and the Roman Church,
but differ in their attitudes regarding
the authority of his present-day
successors (the primacy of the
Bishop of Rome). According to
Catholic teaching, in Matthew
16:18 Jesus promised Peter a
special position in the Church.
