See my 120 please: Any thoughts to add? I think I could add at least one thing. Petra as a fem word is has a substantial impact on what the Church is to Jesus - the bride. A fem. application to the base is a perfect precursor of a full grown spiritual bride. The more I look at it, the more implications it seems to have.

I have read it, but I can't seem to grasp what you are saying, sometimes I think I'm getting dyslexic when I try to turn meanings around. I would love to see someone make another analogy of the same situation, where you give someone a descriptive name from one language, which has two separate meanings like (Peter and rock, then it is translated into their common language which has another two words that sound the same but are two different meanings, than translate them again into a third language and still have two words that have the same sound, but different meanings. Arabic = Cephas, Cephas + Greek = Petros, Petros + English = Peter or ? peter?

How's that for a long paragraph.Lol
