Mark 14:69 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:69

And a maid saw him again
Either the same maid, so the Syriac and Persic versions read, "that maid": that selfsame maid, as before, or another, as in ( Matthew 26:71 ) , and so the Arabic version reads it here; but the Ethiopic as before "a daughter"; that is, of the high priest:

and began to say to them that stood by;
the fire, along with Peter, warming themselves:

this is one of them;
this man is one of the disciples and followers of Jesus of Nazareth; he is of that sect, he certainly belongs to them, and is come here only as a spy.

Mark 14:69 In-Context

67 When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him. "You also were with Jesus, that Nazarene," she said.

68 But Peter said he had not been with him. "I don't know or understand what you're talking about," he said. He went out to the entrance to the courtyard.

69 The servant saw him there. She said again to those standing around, "This fellow is one of them."

70 Again he said he was not. After a little while, those standing nearby said to Peter, "You must be one of them. You are from Galilee."

71 He began to call down curses on himself. He took an oath and said to them, "I don't know this man you're talking about!"
