Listen from:
V.32-42 The three who were with Jesus on several special occasions now have this privilege. But as so often happens when the Lord gives us something to do, there is failure. But never when He does a work. Did you find that word mentioned three times? So, ten times the two words are used in chapters 13 and 14. We had better “take heed” and “watch” too, for we are living in difficult days.
V.37 Read again verse 29. Now read verses 37, 54, 68, 70 and 71. Peter thought he knew himself.
V.50 Totally forsaken! What loneliness for Him!
V.55-72 As you read these verses, turn to Isaiah 53:77He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. (Isaiah 53:7) and you will realize how perfectly this latter scripture was fulfilled. Peter denies the Lord in verses 67, 68, and 71.
