We must also examine the language of binding and loosening. In Isaiah 22:22 (We God replaces The Steward of the Royal Family). The language used is echoed in Matt 16:19. The royal steward was second only to the King in authority and spoke with the authority of the King as part of the function of his office. Jesus does the same with Peter.

No quibble here. Frank Sheed writes extensively on that very subject in his book, Theology and Sanity.
