2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; One item so many forget. God wanted the scripture written the way it was for the specific purpose of showing the two different "rocks" Jesus had in mind.
Therefore, folks' opinions about Aramaic and Greek do not matter. God wanted it to be written with Peter as Petros and his faith as Petra to make a point.

God wanted the scripture written the way it was for the specific purpose of showing the two different "rocks" Jesus had in mind. That's just circular eisegesis and meaningless. "My interpretation of the Scriptures is correct because God wanted the Scriptures written in such a way that my interpretation would be correct.". That's all you're saying.
