Yoy still don’t get the point that the Apostle John, writing the inspired words under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, translated/interpreted Cephas as stone, not rock. That is not me translating it. It is just me quoting directly from the Bible. And nowhere in the New Testament is there any other translation of Cephas, but this one. You cannot set aside the Bible’s interpretation without getting called on it.

Would you agree that the scripture interpreted Κηφᾶς (Cephas/Kephas) as Πέτρος (Peter) ?
It takes a further assertion, not interpreted by the scripture to interpret "Peter" as "stone" instead of "rock."
The passage does not interpret Cephas as λίθον (a stone).
