In the first two questions, the Greek verb 'agapao' is used to pose the question: "Do you love me whole-heartedly?" Simon Peter answers with the verb 'phileo,' which suggests a different kind of love: "I love you as a friend." When Jesus poses the question for the third time, He switches to the verb that Peter has used twice: "Do you love me as a friend?"
