Context

Peter Denies Jesus

⁵⁷But Peter denied it. “Woman, I do not know Him,” he said. ⁵⁸A short time later, someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”

Summary

This verse depicts Peter denying his association with Jesus three times, fulfilling Jesus' prediction of Peter's denial before the rooster crowed. It reveals Peter's fear and weakness in the face of persecution, contrasting with his earlier declaration of loyalty to Jesus. Despite Peter's denial, it foreshadows his eventual restoration and forgiveness by Jesus after His resurrection, illustrating the depth of God's grace and mercy towards those who repent and turn back to Him.

John Gill Bible Commentary

And Peter said, man, I know not what thou sayest,.... Suggesting, that he was so far from being a follower of Jesus, or a disciple of his, and from having any personal acquaintance with him, that he did not know what he was talking of, or at least could not understand what he meant by this harangue, or by talking after this manner about him; and then began to curse and swear, and wish the most dreadful things to befall him, if he knew any thing of Jesus of Nazareth: and immediately while he yet spake: in this shocking manner, with his mouth full of oaths, curses, and imprecations: the cock crew; the second time, Mar 14:72.

Peter Denies Jesus
