According to the Midrash Otzar Midrashimj (Eisenstein) Shimon Kaifa (Peter) was a double agent. He gave the impression that he was (yeshu’s standing for yms’v) messenger and then when the Jews accepted Shimon, he would tell them that yeshu is against them. Shimon Kaifa spent the whole year in a tower and only showing himself once a year.
