Mark 14:67 Meaning and Commentary

Mark 14:67

And when she saw Peter warming himself
At the life which was in the midst of the hall:

she looked upon him;
very earnestly, knowing him to be the same, she had let in at the motion of one, that was known in the high priest's family; and suspecting him, by being a stranger, and by his looks:

and said, and thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth;
that is, one of his disciples; (See Gill on Matthew 26:69).

Mark 14:67 In-Context

65 And some began to spit on him and to cover his face and to strike him with their fists, and to say to him "Prophesy!" And the officers received him with slaps in the face.
66 And [while] Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the female slaves of the high priest came up
67 And [when] she saw Peter warming himself, she looked intently at him [and] said, "You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus."
68 But he denied [it], saying, "I neither know nor understand what you mean!" And he went out into the gateway, and a rooster crowed.
69 And the female slave, [when she] saw him, began to say again to the bystanders, "This man is one of them!"
