Core Meaningsrock, stone, rocky mass, personal name derived from rock
Semantic Rangerock, stone, rocky mass; as a proper name, Peter; figuratively associated with firmness or foundational imagery.
Conceptual SignificanceThe name Πέτρος (“Rock”) is given to Simon by Jesus, symbolizing stability and foundational role among the apostles. It echoes rock imagery in biblical theology, especially regarding foundation, confession, and community identity.
Morphological NotesNoun, dative masculine singular (Gr,N,,,,,DMS,); proper name in the dative case indicating indirect object, recipient, or relational reference.
Rendering RationaleThe lemma Πέτρος means “rock” or “stone” and functions as a masculine proper name.
