John 11:16

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, Let us also go, that we may die with him.

"Rabbi," said the disciples, "the Jews were trying to stone you only the other day; are you going back there?"

"Lord," said Peter, "why cannot I follow you just now? I will lay down my life for you."

Peter said to him, "Even though I have to die with you, I will never disown you." And all the disciples said the same thing.

"Lord," he said, "I am ready to go with you to prison and to death."
