I've really enjoyed The Chosen ... until this episode where the Catholic heresy that Peter is "the rock" was repeated and foisted upon the viewer. Peter (petros) was not THE Rock (petra). The Rock was Jesus Christ and the church was built upon him, not a fallible mortal man who denied Christ three times. Throughout the Bible, the Rock is always Jesus Christ, from the 1 Corinthians who said He was the spiritual rock that followed the children of Israel through the wilderness, to the rock that is the stumbling block spoken of in Matthew 21, to Him being the chief cornerstone in Ephesians 2. To support such a fallacy in light of the fact that the vast majority of the audience is not Catholic (they only comprise 21% of those claiming to be Christian) seems like a real bonehead and offensive move, guaranteeing a loss of audience.
Another fallacy in this episode is the use of "Halacha/Halakha", which is not even a term used in Judaism until the early Rabbinic period. Most scholars would agree that it was not a term used in Jesus' times.
