Where did Peter saint live?

Answer 1

For the majority of his life, the Apostle Peter lived in or near Capernaum, or possibly Bethsaida, which are both cities within the region of Galilee, located right on the coast of the Sea of Galilee. Jesus often travelled to different cities during His earthly ministry, and we will use one such journey recorded in Scripture as evidence that either Capernaum or Bethsaida was Peter's hometown. In Mark 1:14, Jesus travels to Galilee. In Mark 1:16, while in Galilee, Jesus calls Simon Peter and his brother Andrew, who were fishing in the Sea of Galilee, to be His apostles. According to verse 16, they were fisherman by trade, which explains why they lived in a coastal town. In verse 21 of chapter 1, Jesus and his new Apostles enter into the city of Capernaum, specifically into the synagogue located within Capernaum. After Jesus performs a miracle inside the synagogue, we come to verse 29: "And forthwith (or right away), when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon (Peter) and Andrew, with James and John." And so we see that Peter's house must have been in or very near the city of Capernaum. This account of Jesus going to Peter's house is also recorded in Matthew chapter 8, and Luke 4:31-39. The verse that supports Bethsaida as being Peter's hometown is found in John 1:44 "Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter." The "city of Peter" could mean the city that he lives in, but most likely refers to the city of his birth, similar to other statements made in The Bible. Other Scriptures that confirm that Peter was a Galilean can be found in Matthew 26:73, Mark 14:70 (see below), Luke 22:59, and Acts 1:10-11. Mark 14:70 "And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto." However, after the death and resurrection of Jesus, Peter dwelt at various places, including Jerusalem for some time, often making journeys into other cities and regions. See Acts 1:12-13, Acts 8:14 and 25, Acts 10:5-6, Acts 10:23-24, Acts 11:2, and Acts 15:2 and 7.

Answer 2

Before he became an apostle, Peter lived in Bethsaida in Galilee where he worked with his brother Andrew as a fisherman. For a few years he resided in Anthioch and was the first bishop of that city. At the time Jews were forbidden from residing in Rome. When the ban was lifted, Peter took up residence again in Rome and it was there that he was martyred.

Answer 3

Peter originally lived in Bethsaida on the Sea of Galilee.

Peter, evidently, also made it to Rome as his first epistle mentions "Greetings from the Church in Babylon." There was, at the time (~64 AD) no Church in Babylon but Babylon was a code word of Jews at the time for the city of Rome. It is believed that Peter died in Rome after the great fire and Nero decided to blame the Christians for the fire that it is rumored he, himself, at intentionally set.
