St. Peter was crucified in Rome (67 A.D.) but, out of his respect for [[Jesus]], St. Peter requested and obtained an upside-down crucifixion, with his agonizingly pointed downwards at Rome (67 A.D.). The brutal, anti-Christian Nero was the Roman Emperor at the time. This was recorded by the historian [[Origen]].<br> Peter's remains were placed at a magnificent basilica erected at the foot of the [[Vatican]] Hill.

Peter's life and legacy was marked by an internal battle between faith and reoccurring internal lacking of moral courage. Even after the crucifixion of Jesus, he made grave errors which were harshly rebuked by the Apostle [[Paul]]; in [https://www.esv.org/Galatians+2/ Galatians 2:11–14], Peter acted hypocritically between his behavior among Gentiles and Jewish leaders, causing others to follow the immoral example; Paul, himself a Pharisee, scathingly responded: "If you, though a Jew, live like a Gentile and not like a Jew, how can you force the Gentiles to live like Jews?"
