A Special Grace for Peter
Commentators unanimously agree that the specific mention of Peter is a profound act of mercy. After his painful denial of Jesus, Peter was likely filled with shame. The angel's special message was a direct, personal invitation, reassuring him that he was forgiven, restored, and still counted among the disciples. As Matthew Henry notes, this shows that a true penitent is always welcome to a sight of Christ.
