56 Then a certain [servant] girl saw Peter sitting there in the light of the fire. As she stared at him she said, “This man was with Jesus, too.”
57 But Peter denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not [even] know Him.”
58 Then a little while later, someone else saw Peter and said, “You are one of them also [i.e., one of Jesus’ disciples].” But Peter replied, “Man, I am not.”
59 And about an hour later someone else stated emphatically, “I know for sure that this man was also with him [i.e., Jesus], for he is from Galilee [too].” [Note: Peter’s accent gave him away. See Matt. 26:73].
60 But then Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” Just then, as he was speaking, the rooster crowed.
61 Then the Lord turned and gave Peter a [penetrating] glance. And Peter remembered the words of the Lord, how He had said to him, “You will deny [knowing] me three times before the rooster crows today.”
62 Then Peter went out and cried bitterly.
