Luca 22:59

59 E, infraposto lo spazio quasi d’un’ora, un certo altro affermava lo stesso, dicendo: In verità, anche costui era con lui; perciocchè egli è Galileo.

Luca 22:59 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:59

And about the space of one hour after
After the first assault, or rather after the second: another confidently affirmed;
who was one of them that stood by the fireside, and heard what had passed; and not only so, but was a kinsman to him, whose ear Peter had cut off, and who had seen him in the garden with Christ, and therefore with all assurance asserted it, as a matter of fact, as an unquestionable truth, and beyond all doubt: saying of a truth, this fellow also was with him;
a disciple and follower of Jesus, and was with him when he was apprehended; I saw him there, and it may be depended on as a truth; and then added this reason, for he is a Galilean;
you may be assured of this yourselves, his speech betrays him; you may know him by his language, and which confirms my assertion.

Luca 22:59 In-Context

57 Ma egli lo rinnegò, dicendo: Donna, io nol conosco.

58 E, poco appresso, un altro, vedutolo, gli disse: Anche tu sei di quelli. Ma Pietro disse: O uomo, non sono.

59 E, infraposto lo spazio quasi d’un’ora, un certo altro affermava lo stesso, dicendo: In verità, anche costui era con lui; perciocchè egli è Galileo.

60 Ma Pietro disse: O uomo, io non so quel che tu dici. E subito, parlando egli ancora, il gallo cantò.

61 E il Signore, rivoltosi, riguardò Pietro. E Pietro si rammentò la parola del Signore, come egli gli avea detto: Avanti che il gallo canti, tu mi rinnegherai tre volte.
