Revision as of 18:02, 28 August 2017
English (Abbott-Smith)
Πέτρος, -ου, ὁ (i.e. a stone, v.s. πέτρα, Κηφᾶς),
Simon Peter, the Apostle: Mt 4:18 10:2, Mk 3:16, Lk 5:8, Jo 1:41, 43, al.
English (Strong)
apparently a primary word; a (piece of) rock (larger than λίθος); as a name, Petrus, an apostle: Peter, rock. Compare Κηφᾶς.
English (Thayer)
Πέτρου, ὁ (an appellative proper name, signifying 'a stone,' 'a rock,' 'a ledge' or 'cliff'; used metaphorically of a soul hard and unyielding, and so resembling a rock, Sophocles O. R. 334; Euripides, Med. 28; Herc. fur. 1397; answering to the Chaldean Κηφᾶς, which see, Peter, the surname of the apostle Simon. He was a native of Bethsaida, a town of Galilee, the son of a fisherman (see Ἰωάννης, 3, and Ἰωνᾶς, 2), and dwelt with his wife at Capernaum, Ἰάκωβος, 3), over the affairs of the Christians at Jerusalem, he seems to have gone abroad to preach the gospel especially to Jews (Papias in Eusebius 3,39, 15; for Papias states that Peter employed Mark as 'interpreter' (ἑρμηνευτής), an aid of which he had no need except beyond the borders of Palestine, especially among those who spoke Latin (but on the disputed meaning: of the word 'interpreter' here, see Morison, Commentary on Mark , edition 2, Introduction, p. xxix)). But just as, on the night of the betrayal, Peter proved so far faithless to himself as thrice to deny that he was a follower of Jesus, so also some time afterward at Antioch he made greater concessions to the rigorous Jewish Christians than Christian liberty permitted; accordingly he was rebuked by Paul for his weakness and 'dissimulation' (ὑπόκρισις), Herzog edition 2, vol. xi., p. 524ff, and (for references), p. 537f). This one thing seems to be evident from BB. DD. and references as above) He is called in the N. T., at one time, simply Σίμων (once Συμεών, B. D. under the word Smith's Bible Dictionary, Peter, under the end (p. 2459 American edition))), Πέτρος and Κηφᾶς (which see), then again Σίμων Πέτρος, Συμεών Πέτρος (L WH text Σίμων); Σίμων ὁ λεγόμενος Πέτρος, Σίμων ὁ ἐπικαλούμενος Πέτρος, Σίμων ὅς ἐπικαλεῖται Πέτρος, Acts 10:5,32.
