Mark 14:69

69 And again when another damsel had seen him, she began to say to men that stood about, That this is of them. [+Again forsooth when another handmaiden/handmaid had seen him, she began to say to men standing about, For this is of them.]

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 And when she had seen Peter warming him(self), she beheld him, and said, And thou were with Jesus of Nazareth [And thou wast with Jesus of Nazareth].

68 And he denied, and said [saying], Neither I know, neither I know, what thou sayest. And he went [out] withoutforth before the hall; and at once [and anon] the cock crew.

69 And again when another damsel had seen him, she began to say to men that stood about, That this is of them. [+Again forsooth when another handmaiden/handmaid had seen him, she began to say to men standing about, For this is of them.]

70 And he again denied. And after a little, again they that stood nigh, said to Peter, Verily thou art of them, for thou art of Galilee also [And after a little, again they that were present, said to Peter, Verily thou art of them, for also thou art of Galilee].

71 But he began to curse and to swear, For I know not this man, of whom ye say.
