| Matthew 26:69 | *But Peter sat without in the palace: and there came to him a servant-maid, saying: Thou also wast with Jesus, the Galilean. Luke 12:5.; John 18:17. | \f + \fr 26:69\fk Peter's Denial.\ft Peter sat without in the palace: that is in the open court below, where the servants had lighted a fire. There came to him a certain servant-maid, the portress, says St. John, 18:17. But he denied, saying: I know not what thou sayest. In St. Luke, I know him not: in St. John, I am not. The sense is the same; and Peter might use all these expressions. (Witham) |
