– Name with which Jesus designates Peter, to indicate to him the mission for which he was preparing him: stone, foundation of the Church, as soon as he found it. So Peter is called by the apostle Paul.

Jn 1:42 : You are Simon, son of John; you will be called Cephas (which means stone).

1Cor 1,12 : I am a disciple of Paul; I, of Apollo; I, from Cephas; I, of Christ.

1Cor 3,22 : Paul, Apollo, Cephas, the world, life, death, the present and the future. Everything is yours!

1Cor 9,5 : Like the other apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas?

1Cor 15,5 : Appeared to Cephas and then to the Twelve.

Gal 1:18 : Three years later I went up to Jerusalem to meet Cephas, and stayed with him fifteen days.

Gal 2,9-10 : James, Cephas and John, who are considered the pillars, recognizing the grace given to me.

– See PEDRO.
