Mark 14:30

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

God called the light “day,” and He called the darkness “night.” Evening came and then morning: the first day.

While Peter was in the courtyard below, one of the high priest’s servants came.

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A servant approached him and she said, “You were with Jesus the Galilean too.”

They seized Him, led Him away, and brought Him into the high priest’s house. Meanwhile Peter was following at a distance.

Then the slave girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?”

“I am not!” he said.

So, whoever thinks he stands must be careful not to fall.

Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, struck the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear. (The slave’s name was Malchus.)
