Luke 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.

Luke 22:59 In-Context

57 But Peter said this was not true; he said, "Woman, I don't know him."

58 A short time later, another person saw Peter and said, "You are also one of them." But Peter said, "Man, I am not!"

59 About an hour later, another man insisted, "Certainly this man was with him, because he is from Galilee, too."

60 But Peter said, "Man, I don't know what you are talking about!" At once, while Peter was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

61 Then the Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. And Peter remembered what the Lord had said: "Before the rooster crows this day, you will say three times that you don't know me."
