The KJV renders 7 different Hebrew and Greek words as “rock”

What it means

a (piece of) rock (larger than G3037 (λίθος)); as a name, Petrus, an apostle

apparently a primary word;

How the KJV renders it

peter, rock

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.

rock
also renders pétra (G4073), trachýs (G5138), mâʻôwz (H4581), Çelaʻ (H5554), tsûwr (H6697), tsûwrâh (H6699)
