Subject: Mathew 16:18--what is the "rock"? |
Bible Note: Greetings Emmaus! I understand the argument based upon Aramaic! However, I don't think it holds any water for one simple reason - the New Testament was written in Greek, not Aramaic. Thus, if God had wanted the verse to say that Peter was the rock upon which He would build the church, He simply would have said, "...and upon Petros I will build my church." Thanks for the response my friend! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
