Peter said to Him Peter, one of Jesus' closest disciples, often acted as the spokesperson for the group. His boldness and impulsive nature are well-documented throughout the Gospels. This moment occurs during the Last Supper, a significant event where Jesus prepares His disciples for His impending crucifixion. Peter's declaration is made in the presence of the other disciples, highlighting his leadership role among them. Even if all fall away on account of You I never will Persons / Places / Events 1. PeterOne of Jesus' twelve apostles, known for his impulsive nature and strong declarations of loyalty to Jesus. He is a central figure in this passage, expressing his unwavering commitment to Christ. 2. Jesus The central figure of the New Testament, the Son of God, who is preparing His disciples for His impending crucifixion and resurrection. In this context, He is foretelling the disciples' desertion. 3. The Mount of Olives The location where this conversation takes place. It is a significant place in Jesus' ministry and the site of His later arrest. 4. The Disciples The group of Jesus' closest followers, who are being warned by Jesus about their forthcoming abandonment of Him. 5. The Event of Denial This passage foreshadows Peter's denial of Jesus, which occurs later in the chapter, highlighting human weakness and the fulfillment of Jesus' prophecy. Teaching Points The Danger of OverconfidencePeter's bold declaration serves as a warning against overestimating our own strength and faithfulness. We must remain humble and reliant on God's grace. The Reality of Human Weakness Despite our best intentions, we are prone to failure. Recognizing our weaknesses allows us to depend more fully on Christ's strength. The Importance of Jesus' Foreknowledge Jesus' prediction of Peter's denial demonstrates His divine knowledge and control over future events, reassuring us of His sovereignty. The Role of Repentance and Restoration Peter's account does not end with his denial. His later repentance and restoration by Jesus (John 21) offer hope for redemption and renewal after failure. The Power of Prayer and Intercession Jesus' prayer for Peter (Luke 22:32) underscores the importance of prayer in spiritual warfare and the sustaining power of Christ's intercession for us.(33) Though all men shall be offended.--St. Matthew and St. Mark place the boast of Peter, and the prediction of his denial, after the disciples had left the guest-chamber; St. Luke (Luke 22:23) and St. John (John 13:37) agree in placing it before. It is barely possible that both may have been repeated, but the more probable hypothesis is, that we have here an example of the natural dislocation of the exact order of events that followed one upon another in rapid sequence, and at a time when men's minds were heavy with confused sorrow.Verse 33. - Peter answered and said unto him. This self-confident answer seems to have been made after he had received the warning recorded by St. Luke (Luke 22:31), "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat; but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not." He cannot believe that he, the rock man, can be guilty of such defection. Though all [men] shall be offended because of (ἐν, ver. 31) thee. The addition of "men" in the Authorized Version alters the intended meaning. Peter contrasts himself with his fellow disciples. Though they all should fall away, he, at any rate, would remain steadfast. He could not endure to be included in the "all ye" of Jesus' warning (ver. 31); and as for failing "this night," he will never at any time (οὐδέποτε) be offended in Christ. Commenting on his offence, St. Chrysostom says, "The matters of blame were two: both that he gainsaid Christ, and that he set himself before others; or, rather, a third, too, namely, that he attributed all to himself."
