1 Korintus 1:12

1:12 Now I mean this, that ¹  each of you is saying, “I am with Paul,” or “I am with Apollos,” or “I am with Cephas,” or “I am with Christ.”

Matius 8:14

Healings at Peter’s House

8:14 Now ²  when Jesus entered Peter’s house, he saw his mother-in-law lying down, ³  sick with a fever.

Markus 1:30

1:30 Simon’s mother-in-law was lying down, sick with a fever, so ⁴  they spoke to Jesus ⁵  at once about her.

Yohanes 1:42

1:42 Andrew brought Simon ⁶  to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said, “You are Simon, the son of John. ⁷  You will be called Cephas” (which is translated Peter). ⁸ 

[1:12]  ¹ tn Or “And I say this because.”

[8:14]  ² tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

[8:14]  ³ tn Grk “having been thrown down.” The verb βεβλημένην (beblhmenhn) is a perfect passive participle of the verb βάλλω (ballw, “to throw”). This indicates the severity of her sickness.

[1:30]  ⁴ tn Grk “And.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of previous action(s) in the narrative.

[1:30]  ⁵ tn Grk “him”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:42]  ⁶ tn Grk “He brought him”; both referents (Andrew, Simon) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

[1:42]  ⁷ tc The reading “Simon, son of John” is well attested in Ì^66,75,106 א B* L 33 pc it co. The majority of mss (A B² Ψ Ë^1,13 Ï) read “Simon, the son of Jonah” here instead, but that is perhaps an assimilation to Matt 16:17.

[1:42]  ⁸ sn This is a parenthetical note by the author. The change of name from Simon to Cephas is indicative of the future role he will play. Only John among the gospel writers gives the Greek transliteration (Κηφᾶς, Khfas) of Simon’s new name, Qéphâ (which is Galilean Aramaic). Neither Πέτρος (Petros) in Greek nor Qéphâ in Aramaic is a normal proper name; it is more like a nickname.
