Study Bible

Book ◦ Chapter

And again he denied it with an oath:
This phrase highlights Peter's second denial of Jesus, emphasizing the seriousness of his actions by including an oath. In Jewish culture, taking an oath was a solemn act, often invoking God's name to affirm truthfulness. Peter's use of an oath here underscores the depth of his fear and desperation to distance himself from Jesus. This denial fulfills Jesus' earlier prophecy inMatthew 26:34, where He predicted Peter would deny Him three times before the rooster crowed. The repetition of Peter's denial also reflects human weakness and the struggle between faith and fear, a theme prevalent throughout Scripture.

“I do not know the man!”
Peter's statement is a direct and emphatic disavowal of any association with Jesus. The use of "the man" instead of Jesus' name indicates Peter's attempt to further distance himself from any connection. This denial is significant in the context of Peter's earlier bold declarations of loyalty (Matthew 26:33, 35). It also contrasts with the recognition of Jesus' identity by others, such as the centurion at the crucifixion (Matthew 27:54). This moment of denial is a pivotal point in Peter's spiritual journey, illustrating the frailty of human resolve without divine strength. It serves as a reminder of the need for repentance and the transformative power of forgiveness, as seen in Peter's later restoration and leadership in the early church (John 21:15-19).

Teaching Points

The Weakness of Human Resolve
Despite Peter's earlier bold declarations of loyalty, he succumbs to fear and pressure. This reminds us of our own vulnerabilities and the need for reliance on God's strength.

The Danger of Fear and Peer Pressure
Peter's denial was influenced by fear of association with Jesus. We must be vigilant against compromising our faith due to societal pressures.

The Importance of Repentance and Restoration
Peter's account does not end with his denial. His later repentance and restoration by Jesus (John 21) offer hope for redemption and renewal after failure.

The Role of Prophecy and Fulfillment
Jesus' prediction of Peter's denial underscores the reliability of His words and the divine orchestration of events, encouraging trust in God's sovereign plan.

The Power of Prayer
Jesus' prayer for Peter (Luke 22:32) highlights the importance of intercessory prayer for ourselves and others, especially in times of spiritual testing.

Did Peter deny Jesus before the rooster crowed?

What happens to the rich and poor after death?

How many times did the rooster crow before Peter denied Jesus? (Matthew 26:34 vs. Mark 14:30)

Mark 14:72 - Why does Mark describe the rooster crowing twice, while other Gospels only mention it crowing once, and does this discrepancy weaken the account's credibility?

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers

(72)With an oath.--The downward step once taken, the disciple's fall was fatally rapid. Forgetful of his Lord's command forbidding any use of oaths in common speech (Matthew 5:34), he did not shrink from invoking the divine name, directly or indirectly, to attest his falsehood.

Pulpit Commentary

Verse 72. -With an oath. Assailed on all sides, and fearing that his simple word would not be taken, Peter now to one and all makes a curt denial, accompanying it with an oath. He was thoroughly determined not to compromise himself, and to silence all suspicion. This was the second stage of his fall.I do not know the man. I have no knowledge of this Jesus of whom you are speaking. He calls his beloved Master "the man"!
