Was Peter Married?

By Sosthenes 3-9-2008

Matthew 8:14 ¶ And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother (penthera) laid, and sick of a fever.

1 Cor. 9:5 Have we not power to lead about a sister, a wife, as well as other apostles, and [as] the brethren of the Lord, and Cephas?

Who is Cephas?

John 1:42 And he brought him to Jesus. And when Jesus beheld him, he said, Thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas, which is by interpretation, A stone.

1Cr 7:34 There is difference [also] between a wife (gune) and a virgin (parthenos) . The unmarried woman (agamos) careth for the things of the Lord, that she may be holy both in body and in spirit: but she that is married (gameo) careth for the things of the world, how she may please [her] husband.
