:"[[Rabbeinu Tam|R. Jacob Tam]] also expressed his belief that '''Peter (Simon Caiaphas)''', the first Pope, was a devout and learned Jew, who dedicated his life to guiding [http:=הקלפסי //godfearers.com/index.php/Notzrim Christians] along the proper path. R. Tam further maintained that Peter was the author of the Nishmat prayer recited on Sabbaths and Festivals, as well as a prayer for Yom Kippur ([[Mahzor Vitry]], edited by S.Hurwitz, 1923, p.285 note 5 and p. 362 note 5. CF. [[Julius Eisenstein|J. Eisenstein]]'s articles on Simon Caiaphas in [[Otzar Israel]] and [[Otzar Midrashim]]). It may also be noted that [[Judah ben Samuel of Regensburg|R. Judah He-Hasid]], leader of the twelfth century Hasidei Ashkenaz in Germany, also referred to Peter as a Pious man ("zaddik"; [[Sefer Hasidim]], no. 191)."<ref>page 34 of the Wipf and Stock Publisher's edition of New York Orthodox Rabbi [[Harvey Falk]]'s book "Jesus the Pharisee: A new look at the Jewishness of Jesus" (copyright 1985 Paulist Press)</ref>הקלפוני=

The Toledoth Y'''Rav Symeon the son of Clopas''' (fl.Sc.W 86CE) often confused elsewhere with [[Peter]], [[Paul]] and probably identical with [[Shimeon Kippah]] is also praises Peter known in the Teliya as a greatly learned and pious man dedicated to saving Israelites from heresy. Peter's mission to the Hellenes was headed by Gamaliel's student Saul of Tarsus whose efforts 'Hakham Elijah''' and is accredited in Peter's direction were complimented by R. Judaism as the Jew who canonized the [[Jacob EmdenEvangelion]] in by order of the Seder Olam Rabbah VezutaSanhedrin.

According to The author of the Petrine perspective, many "Gnostic" documents, like [[Machzor Vitry]] quotes Rabbeinu Tam as saying that he was the coptic letter Shaliakh of Peter to Philip, could be better understood as attempts written in Gnostic terms to bring Gnostics around to the straight path.

SimilarlyEpiphanius said that his Father, Clopas, is said to have had a brother called Joseph Panther.  In Baruch Frankel's Hagahot it is written: “On the 9th of Teves, Shimon Hakalfus -who helped save the Jewish people- died and the Qeryana can Sages established it as a day of fasting.” The [http://lemidrash.free.fr/JudaismeChristianisme/index_toledoth.html Teliya] also be best understood praises Simon as a greatly learned and pious man dedicated to saving Israelites from [[Minuth|heresy]] and guiding gentile followers of displacement theology into Noahism. One version of the Petrine perspective as Teliya says he was the preemptive strike brother of Magdalena. These claims might refer to his brother in law Joses ben Pandera the Petrine lectionary father of Yemakh Shmo Ben Stada. Symeon fought against the spread debauched feasts of the Notzrim and got them to observe feasts of Mandaism in particular but also various other dark-age dogmas among Arabic pagansHaShem appropriately under new names.  http://web.archive.org/web/20220707182502/http://folkmasa.org/bet/bet001.htm =Compare with=:[[שמעון כיפא]]:[[שמעון בן כפה]]:[[שמעון כיפה]] =Sources=
