The Lesson Explained. Verses 90,
54.-Afraid, yet interested.
When Jesus made the surprising an
nouncement in the upper room that his
disciples would soOn ~yrievOusly fail in
their allegiance to him Peter was loud
in protesting that, whatever might be
the case with the others, he certainly
would continue faithful at any cost.
1t was in reply to his vehement asser-
tons that Jesus predicted how wretch
edly he would fall. Peter rallied from
the shock of the capture Of Jesus and
returned to the crowd, but he was
afraid. and so he followed "afar Off"
He kept at a safe distance until he
finally got into "the palace of the high
priest" Annas, through the interven-
ton Of John, who is known in the
palace IJohn xviii. 1G,. Peter desired
to see how the trial would end. and as
soon as he entered the palace court
yard, since it was cold at this early
hour Of the morning. he was attracted
by the lighted fire in the braZier and
warmed himself" at the fire. He
was thus brought into contact with
the servants who We're probably the
temple police and attendants belonging
to the household of .Annas.
Verses Gt-71.-Faithless in danger.
Peter had certainly shown courage in
thus v%enturing into the midst of ne-
mics. John had introduced him and
had then gone elsewhere. He was
doubtless watching the proceedings in
the council chamber from some place
Of observation.
"One Of the maids" This was one
of the slave girls in the domestic serv-
ice Of Annals. perhaps the FORTRESS
from whom John had sought permits
sion to let Peter in. ''Thou also vast
with Jesus" This sudden question
thrust ut him in the presence of the
soldiers and servants alarmed Peter,
and with his usual impetuosity he
spoke out, but he was not true to him
self. He denied, saying. l know not,
neither understand l what thou say
est" He was confused and bewilder-
ed and spoke eXcitedly and incoherent-
w. He realized that it was not safe
TO remain here. and SO ''he went out
into the porch" But he was attacked
even in the semidarkneSs of the vesti-
bule. We cannot be sure whether it
was the same woman VI another who
