Yeshua speaking to Peter "You are Petros and on this petra I will build my synagogue." Obviously these are two different words.
1.) Some have declared that they are the same or have the same meaning. But do they?
2.) The second aspect is these are Greek words. Did Yeshua really give Peter a Greek term as his new name?
3.) If it was the same word why didn't Yeshua say "You are Petros and upon this Petros I build my synagogue"?
For those who are wondering, Greek masculine is "petros" and the Greek feminine is "petra".
