Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:69-75

69-75 Peter's sin is truly related, for the Scriptures deal faithfully. Bad company leads to sin: those who needlessly thrust themselves into it, may expect to be tempted and insnared, as Peter. They scarcely can come out of such company without guilt or grief, or both. It is a great fault to be shy of Christ; and to dissemble our knowledge of him, when we are called to own him, is, in effect, to deny him. Peter's sin was aggravated; but he fell into the sin by surprise, not as Judas, with... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - Matthew 26:1-99

Matthew 26 THIS CHAPTER BRINGS US back to the history of the last few days of the Lord’s life on earth. The opening verses give us a peep into the palace of the high priest, and we find it to be full of craft and counsels of murder. In verses Matthew 26.6-26.13 , we turn from this most atrocious wickedness in high places to behold an action of love and devotion in a humble home, where some of the godly remnant dwelt. From John 12.0 we gather that the woman was Mary of Bethany. She evidently... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - Matthew 26:69-75

The denial of Peter: v. 69. Now Peter sat without in the palace; and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. v. 70. But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. v. 71. And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. v. 72. And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the Man. v. 73. And after a while came unto him they that stood by,... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - Matthew 26:67-75

“Ashamed of Jesus!” Matthew 26:67-75 What a shameful travesty of justice! When men yield themselves to violence like this, their passion condemns them as perpetrating the devil’s work. But in the whirlwind of abuse and horror, the one thing that hurt our Lord was the defection of Peter, Luke 22:61 . It was love that led him to dare to follow to the court. John contrived to get him in, John 18:16 . But he stood too near the fire amid that motley group, who were discussing their night... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - Matthew 26:1-75

The Lord now reverted to the theme of His coming suffering, telling the disciples with great definiteness of the time-"after two days"; and of the event-"The Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified." Meanwhile the priests and elders were assembled in secret conclave, plotting how they might secure Him in order to silence His voice by putting Him to death. Whether the story of the alabaster cruse was in chronological order is of little moment. It is a revelation of perhaps the most wonderful... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:69

‘Now Peter was sitting outside in the court, and a maid came to him, saying, “You also were with Jesus the Galilaean.” ’ As Peter was sat in the courtyard in the semi-darkness, surrounded by men who, if they discovered who he was, would, in his view, unquestionably have had him apprehended, he must undoubtedly have been in a state of constant high tension. He was an impulsive and brave man, which was how he came to be there, but he was not good at facing this kind of steady continual pressure.... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:69-75

Peter Denies Jesus Three Times As He Goes In A Continual Downward Spiral (26:69-75). It is probably not accidental that the mockery of Jesus concerning His being unable to prophesy is now followed by an example of the fulfilment of one of His prophecies (Matthew 26:34). Even as they mocked Him one of His prophecies was in process of fulfilment. As ever Jesus will not give ‘signs’. He will not prophesy for the amusement of the guards. But He will use His powers in order to help His own. For... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Matthew 26:69-75

Matthew 26:69-Susanna : . Peter’ s Denial ( Mark 14:66-Baruch : *, Luke 22:56-1 John :).— Mt. still keeps closely to Mk., except that (as in Matthew 26:34) he makes one cockcrow suffice. The second challenge ( Matthew 26:71) is from another maid (in Lk. a man), and is answered with an oath. Mt. also notes that it was Peter’ s dialect that stamped him as a Galilean. read more

Preacher's Complete Homiletical Commentary - Matthew 26:69-75

CRITICAL NOTESMatthew 26:71. Porch.—The dim, over-arched passage, leading outward from the area of the court to the entrance gate (Morison).Matthew 26:73. Thy speech bewrayeth thee.—Peter was discovered by his use of the Galilæan dialect. The Galilæans were unable to pronounce the gutturals distinctly, and they lisped, pronouncing sh like th. Perhaps Peter said, “I know not the ith,” instead of, “I know not the ish” (man) (Carr). To bewray, from the Anglo-Saxon wreian, to accuse, then, to point... read more
