Peter's Denial of Jesus

Mt 26:57-58, 69-75; Mk 14:53-54, 66-72; Jn18:12-18, 25-27



54 (Mt 26:57-58; Mk 14:53-54) Then they arrested Him, and led Him away,

and brought Him into the high priest's house. Peter followed at a distance.

55 But when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard

and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

56 Then a servant girl saw him as he sat near the fire,

and gazed at him, and said, "This man was with Him."

57 But he denied Him, saying, "Woman, I do not know Him."

58 A little later someone else saw him and said, "You also are one of them."

Peter said, "Man, I am not!"

59 About an hour later another man firmly declared,

"Certainly, this man also was with Him, for he is a Galilean."

60 Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are saying."

Immediately, while he was yet speaking, the rooster crowed.

61 (Lk 22:34) The Lord turned and looked at Peter.

Then Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him,

"Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times."

62And Peter went outside and wept bitterly.



[54] Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's

house. And Peter followed afar off.

[55] And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set

down together, Peter sat down among them.

[56] But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly

looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

[57] And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

[58] And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of

them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

[59] And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed,

saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.

[60] And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately,

while he yet spake, the cock crew.

[61] And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the

word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt

deny me thrice.

[62] And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.



The Mocking and Whipping of Jesus

Mt 26:67-68; Mk 14:65



63 (Jn 18:22) The men who guarded Jesus mocked Him and whipped Him.

64 When they had blindfolded Him, they struck Him on the face and asked Him,

"Prophesy! Who struck You?"

65 And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.



[66] And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief

priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council,

saying,

[67] Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye

will not believe:

[68] And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

[69] Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of

God.

[70] Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto

them, Ye say that I am.

[71] And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have

heard of his own mouth.

25 Meanwhile Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to

him, "Are you not also one of His disciples?"

He denied it and said, "I am not!"

26 (Jn 18:1; 18:10) One of the servants of the high priest, being a relative

of the man whose ear Peter cut off, said,

"Did I not see you in the garden with Him?"

27 (Jn 13:38) Peter then denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.



[25] And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him,

Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

[26] One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear

Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

[27] Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.

66 (Mt 27:1; Mk 15:1) When day came, the assembly of the elders

of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, came together

and led Him away to their council, saying,

67 "Are You the Christ? Tell us!"

He said to them, "If I tell you, you will not believe.

68 (Lk 20:3-7) And if I also question you, you will not answer Me

or release Me.

69 (Mk 16:19; Ps 110:1) From now on the Son of Man will be seated

at the right hand of the power of God."

70 (Lk 23:3; Mt 26:64) They all said, "Are You then the Son of God?"

He said to them, "You truly say that I am."

71 Then they said, "What further testimony do we need?

We have heard it from His own mouth."

will not believe:

Matthew 27:3-10



The Death of Judas

Ac 1:18-19



3 When Judas, who had betrayed Him, saw that He was condemned,

he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver

to the chief priests and elders,

4 saying, "I have sinned in that I have betrayed innocent blood."

They said, "What is that to us? You must see to that."

5 (2Sa 17:23; Job 2:9) So he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple

and departed. And he went and hanged himself.

6 The chief priests took the silver pieces and said, "It is not lawful

to put them into the treasury, because this is the price of blood."

7 So they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field

to bury strangers in.

8 (Ac 1:19; Mt 28:15) Therefore that field has been called the Field of Blood

to this day.

9 (Zec 11:12-13) Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled:

"They took the thirty pieces of silver, the value of that the sons of Israel

set on Him,

10 and gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me."



[3] Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned,

repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief

priests and elders,

[4] Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And

they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

[5] And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and

went and hanged himself.

[6] And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful

for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

[7] And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury

strangers in.

[8] Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

[9] Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying,

And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued,

whom they of the children of Israel did value;

[10] And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.



Mark 15:2-5



2 (Mt 2:2; 1Ti 6:13) Pilate asked Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?"

He answered him, "You have said so."

3 (Isa 53:7) The chief priests accused Him of many things,

but He answered nothing.

4 (Jn 19:10) So Pilate asked Him again, "Do You answer nothing?

See how many things they testify against You."

5 But Jesus still answered nothing, so that Pilate was astonished.



[2] And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering

said unto him, Thou sayest it.

many things they witness against thee.

[5] But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.
