medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
Brenda's posting reminds me of a question provoked by all this name
discussion.
Is "Peter/Petrus" not a fiction occasioned by the Vulgate? What I mean is
this: Jesus spoke Aramaic as Mel Gibson et al inform us. Would He have used
"Petrus" or the Aramaic word for "rock"? I realize this is beyond (or
before) the scope of our list but beg the indulgence of all. And forgive me,
Paleo-Christianity specialists, for what is probably a naive query.
