Are you REALLY trying to imply;

(The preceding verse, 22:20)

And it shall come to pass in that day, that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah:

Is Peter ?

No, not that Eliakaim "is" Peter, but that Eliakim is a "type" for Peter; foreshadows Peter; by being made suzerein, sets out how suzerainty works as a model for tributary governance; illustrates --- this is the central point --- "the power of the keys."
