Ceiphas, Kalpus and Cippah in Jewish tradition (especially the Teliya) are the names of three Simons who were instrumental in organizing what the Notzrim called Pavlut -the only known historical and halakhically valid form of Gentile Judaism- using Ishmaelim in a Kiruv for Notzrim. These Shepherds of the Ishmaelim were the first Stylites who are described as either living in Minarets or teaching from Minbars and were instrumental in forming the Miaphysite Church.

Ceiphas flourished between about 30CE-56CE. He broke Helen of Adiabene's belief in Ben Stada (the 1st Beast) through an airborne showdown with him which is remembered in both Jewish and Christian tradition. He has also been referred to as the Zacharite Jew or as the Hassidic Jew.

Kalpus, also known as Hakham Elijah (חכם אליהו) and Peter Hamor, was appointed by the Sages of Jacob to approach Esau and organize Ishmael's Edah in 86CE as its first Jewish Patriarch. He became a friend of Antoninus before he died. He is accredited with gathering the teachings of John, Peter and Paul into the Evangelion. Rashi warned against associating him with the "Abomination of Rome".

Cippah (known on occasion as שמעון כיפר) operated as the last Patriarch of the Ishmaelim some time between 224CE and 426CE at a time when a Judaizing sect went out from the Ishmaelim criticising Pavlut and taking their own approach on how to deal with the Notzrim. The Notzrim approached Cippah for help which he agreed to on the condition that the Notzrim stop attacking the Jews.

The Miaphysite movement that Ceiphas, Kalpus and Cippah promoted, grew to fight (under the leadership of Amr al-As) against Nestorian Monothelitism in the 7th century before being oppressed by Abbasidism (the 2nd Beast) in the 8th century. Nevertheless, Pavlut survived in Europe under the guidance of people like the Tosafists, the Hassidei Ashkenaz, Jacob Emden and Eliyahu Soloveitchik as well as in Armenia and in Africa as certain African Independent Churches.
