“You need to dig deeper - Peter DID not replace Judas - Matthew did.”
I don’t think we are using the word “replace” in the same way.
I will rephrase. Peter and tha apostles went through the process of filling the Office Judas abandoned. It resulted in the choice of a twelfth Apostle.
I think we are using the word replace in 2 different ways - the original 11 cast lots to fill Judas’s place. Thus, we are on the same page with this. LOL
