Where in the Bible did the apostle Peter die?
A:The death of Peter is not mentioned in the Bible, even in Acts of the Apostles, which was not written until around the turn of the century. Realistically, we do not know how or where Peter died.On the other hand, Catholic tradition says that Peter travelled to Rome to lead the Christian community there and was subsequently crucified in Rome, having appointed his successor. However, the majority of scholars say that the Christian community in Rome was led by a college of presbyters until well into the second century, when the first bishop was appointed. It is improbable in the extreme that an apostolic precedent of a bishop of Rome would be so soon abandoned and ignored for almost a hundred years, and so it is most improbable that Peter ever led the church in Rome or that he died there.

What are the names of famous Christian martyrs?
Acts of the Apostles reports that Stephen was the first Christian martyr. However, Raymond E. Brown (An Introduction to the New Testament) says that the scene involving Stephen's trial and death is significant because it so closely resembles the story of the trial and death of Jesus in Luke. He says that we can never actually verify the existence and martyrdom of Stephen.The martyrdom of James, brother of Jesus is well attested.Christian tradition holds that all the disciples except John were martyred, usually in quite vivid and gruesome ways. However, scholars and even many modern theologians agree that there is no evidence for these traditions. The most famous of the traditions about the martyrdom of the disciples is the death in Rome, by crucifixion upside down, of Peter. However Clement of Rome, writing around 95 CE (1 Clement), spoke in general terms about the life and death of Peter but appears to have been unaware that he had even visited Rome or that he had been executed just a few years earlier. It seems that the tradition of Peter becoming the bishop of Rome, and of him being executed there, began with Pope Anicetus (156-166), who claimed that Peter had travelled to Rome to lead the Christians there and had been beheaded in Rome, meaning that he (Anicetus) spoke with the authority of the apostle Peter. Perhaps the beheading of Peter was not vivid enough, because Origen later reported that Peter had been sentenced to be crucified, but that not wishing to be killed in the manner of Jesus, asked to be crucified upside down.The apostle Paul is also said to have been executed in Rome, at the same time as was Peter, but once again there seems to be no evidence for this. Clement of Rome seems to think that Paul actually travelled to Spain and spent his remaining years there.The Apostolic Father, Polycarp was a famous martyr of the second century.
