A minor correction if I may: If I’m not mistaken (and I might be of course) Peter is called “Cephas” by Jesus. “Cephas” is the Greek (not Hebrew) word for “rock”.

So your point is valid of course (not denying that). Just noting the term “Cephas’ is Greek in origin (again as far as I’m aware) not Hebrew.

Anyway, to your point, no one can refute it. metmom, all the rest, they never reply or refute this point because they can’t. They continue always to repost the same SPAM regarding the exchange in Matt 16 but ignore elsewhere in Scripture where Peter is clearly called “rock” (Cephas).

It’s an irrefutable point, but that won’t stop those who have an agenda. I know because I’ve made the same point as you did just now, but the silliness regarding Matt 16 continues to be bandied about as if there’s still room for debate.

All the while, Catholics IGNORE the Greek in order to support their doctrine.

Scripture = spam?

That sure is telling......

Cephas is Greek? Maybe I am mistaken. Thanks.

I'll await your comments on what I have posted...
