69 And the maid, having seen him, began again to say to the ones standing by, This is one of them!

Markos 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.

Markos 14:69 In-Context

67 And having seen Kefa warming himself, having looked him over, she says, You also were with the one from Natzeret, Yehoshua!
68 But he denied [it], saying, I do not have daas (knowledge) or binah (understanding) of what you are saying. And he walked away and went outside into the entryway. And a tarnegol crowed.
69 And the maid, having seen him, began again to say to the ones standing by, This is one of them!
70 But again he made hakhchashah (denial). And after a little [while] again the ones having stood by were saying to Kefa, You are one of them, for indeed you are a Gelili (inhabitant of the Galil).
71 And Kefa began to speak a klalah (curse) and to swear, I do not have daas of this man I don’t know the one of whom you speak!
