Peter had just made the comment that Jesus is the Christ. Jesus replies that flesh and blood had not revealed that to him but God had. Jesus then does a play on words, He says you are Peter(Petros, a rock or boulder) and upon this rock(petra, bedrock, a mass of rock i.e. foundational) I will build my church. Petros can be moved, petra cannot be moved. This is a great word picture in the original language, a lot lost in translation. | ||||||
