Outline from Broadus's harmony

Your question is best answered by consulting a Gospel Harmony. I consulted two of them, both are based on the work started by John A. Broadus culminating in his own Harmony of the Gospels published in 1893, and thus offer similar chronologies.

• A Harmony of the Gospels (1923) by A. T. Robertson
• Harmony of the Gospels (2006) by Steven Cox and Kendell Easley

In the Harmony John 6:69 appears in a separate, earlier event than Matt 16:16-17 but both are toward the beginning of Jesus's ministry in Part VIII: The Special Training of the Twelve in Districts around Galilee.

To give you a sense on where the 2 events occur, please see the following outline with your 2 events bolded:
