Key verse: 69
NIV
Peter Disowns Jesus(A)
54 Then seizing him, they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest.(B) Peter followed at a distance.(C) 55 And when some there had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat down with them. 56 A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, “This man was with him.”
57 But he denied it. “Woman, I don’t know him,” he said.
58 A little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.”
“Man, I am not!” Peter replied.
59 About an hour later another asserted, “Certainly this fellow was with him, for he is a Galilean.”(D)
60 Peter replied, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord(E) turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.”(F) 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
The Guards Mock Jesus(G)
63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?” 65 And they said many other insulting things to him.(H)
Jesus Before Pilate and Herod(I)(J)(K)
66 At daybreak the council(L) of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together,(M) and Jesus was led before them. 67 “If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.”
Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, 68 and if I asked you, you would not answer.(N) 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”(O)
70 They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”(P)
He replied, “You say that I am.”(Q)
71 Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”

Peter Denies Jesus
54 (A)Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest's house, (B)and Peter was following at a distance. 55 (C)And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of (D)the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them. 56 Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, “This man also was with him.” 57 But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.” 58 And a little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.” 59 And after an interval of about an hour still another (E)insisted, saying, “Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean.” 60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and (F)looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, (G)“Before the rooster crows today, you will (H)deny me three times.” 62 And he went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus Is Mocked
63 (I)Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him. 64 (J)They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, (K)“Prophesy! (L)Who is it that struck you?” 65 And they said many other things against him, (M)blaspheming him.
Jesus Before the Council
66 (N)When day came, (O)the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their (P)council, and they (Q)said, 67 (R)“If you are (S)the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe, 68 and if I ask you, you will not answer. 69 But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated (T)at the right hand of the power of God.” 70 So they all said, “Are you (U)the Son of God, then?” And he said to them, (V)“You say that I am.” 71 Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips.”

Jesus was led to the high priest to be tried. Peter was loyal to Jesus, but he was not prepared for the crisis, for he did not pray like Jesus. So, he followed at a distance without a decision of faith. Then he sat down around the fire, pretending to be one of them. However, when confronted by a servant girl, he denied even knowing Jesus out of fear. After the first denial, the next two came easily. Just then, the rooster crowed and Jesus turned and looked straight at him. Peter went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus silently bore the soldiers’ mockery, beating, and insult like a lamb led to the slaughter (Isa 53:7). However, Jesus was not silent before the council. When they asked Jesus if he was the Messiah, he claimed to be the Messiah (68). When they asked him if he was the Son of God, he said, “I am” (70), not hiding his identity, though he knew that his answer would cause his death. At this, they condemned Jesus as guilty of blasphemy. Jesus was tried before the council as a criminal, though innocent, but he was confident of his victory, having a resurrection faith that he would sit on the throne of God as the Sovereign Ruler and Judge over all mankind through his death and resurrection.
Prayer: Lord, help me to repent like Peter when I fail and live with unshakable faith in your kingdom.
One Word: Sinless Jesus was tried in my place.
