Kòm yon fason alantou pwoblèm sa a, petra te bay yon fini maskilen, fè li Petros. Chwa a nan dirèktè lalwa yo sou zafè sa a se finalman petinan, sepandan, depi Jezi te pale Aramaic, pa Greek. Apre sa,, kòm Levanjil Jan (1:42) pwouve, Jezi pa t 'rele Pyè "Petros,"men Men, (rann Fonética nan grèk kòm Pyè), pawòl Bondye a Aramaic pou "gwo wòch" oswa "wòch." Ki sa Jezi te di nan Matye 16:18, Lè sa a,, se tou senpleman, "Ou se Rock [Men,], ak sou wòch sa a [men] M'ap bati legliz mwen. "

As a way around this problem, petra was given a masculine ending, making it Petros. The choice of the scribes on this matter is ultimately irrelevant, however, since Jesus spoke Aramaic, not Greek. And, as Gospel of John (1:42) proves, Jesus did not call Peter “Petros,” but Kepha (rendered phonetically in Greek as Cephas), the Aramaic word for “large stone” or “rock.” What Jesus said in Matthew 16:18, then, is simply, “You are Rock [Kepha], and on this rock [kepha] I will build my church.”
