1 | Overpower her?Does this affect the rock? | Matt 16:18 | Ray | 55794 | ||
For the rendering of Matthew 16:18b, I read a version saying that, "the gates of Hades shall not overpower her." This is talking about the church then according to this rendering. If this "her" or the traditional "it" does not refer to the beginning of the verse, that is, the rock or Rock; then I would go with the rock. The rock could be Peter's testimony or Peter himself, but I do not believe right now that it is speaking about the Rock Himself [Deity]. If I would be talked into "Rock", then I would go with the translation or manuscript that does not have "Jesus" in it for verse 20. Matthew 16:20,NASB, "Then He warned *the disciples that they should tell no one that He was * the Christ." Matthew 16:20, NKJ, "Then He commanded His disciples that they should tell no one that He was *Jesus the Christ." The Christ is the Rock or Peter's testimony of the Christ is the rock of the church. From the heart, Ray |

2 | Overpower her?Does this affect the rock? | Matt 16:18 | christian7 | 55795 | ||
Ray...I agree that "this rock"would be Peter's testamony or revelation.The fact that Jesus is the Christ,the Son of the living God...well the gates of hell shall not prevail against that...God Bless | ||||||
