Verse 34. The cock shall not crow this day] Mt 26:34, and Mr 14:30, say, this night; both expressions are right, because the Jewish day, of twenty-four hours, began with the evening, and ended at the evening of the following day. On Peter’s denial, see the notes on Mt 26:31-35.

And he said,…. “To him”, as all the Oriental versions add; to Peter, as what is said shows; that is, Jesus said to him, as the Syriac and Persic versions express:

I tell thee, Peter; who knew him, and his heart, better than he did himself, as well as knew what was to come, and what would befall him; and therefore declares it, as he does with the greatest assurance and certainty, and which might be depended on, and accordingly came to pass:

the cock shall not crow this day; in this night, as in Mr 14:30 or this night, as in Mt 26:34 for it was now night; a natural day includes both night and day; a like way of speaking, see in Lu 2:8

before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me; as he did,

Until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me ( ). “Thrice” is in all four Gospels here for they all give this warning to Peter (Mark 14:30; Matt 26:34; Luke 22:34; John 18:38). Peter will even deny knowing Jesus ().

Peter. The only instance of Christ ‘s directly addressing him as Peter. He refers to him by that name, Mr 16:7.

1) “And he said, I tell thee, Peter,” (ho de eipen lego soi Petre) “Then he responded, I tell you, Peter,” little stone. This is the only recorded time that Jesus spoke directly calling him Peter, after having once given him this name, Mat 16:18. It is perhaps used to remind him of both his strength and his weakness.

2) “The cock shall not crow this day,” (ou phonesei semeron alektor) “A cock (rooster) will not sound (crow) today,” Mat 26:34; Joh 13:38.

3) “Before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me,” (heos tris me aparnese me eidenai) “Until you deny three times that you know me,” in spite of your promises, Mat 26:34; Mar 14:30; Joh 13:38 That he did is certified Mat 26:72; Mat 26:74; Mar 14:68; Mar 14:71.

‘And he said, “I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until you will three times deny that you know me.” ’

But Jesus tenderly turned to him and warned him of what was to come. Note the change from ‘Simon’ to ‘Peter’ (a rock). This is the only time that we know of that He has actually directly addressed him as Peter, although it was He Who gave him the name (Mar 3:16), and had promised that one day he would provide the rock on which the new people of God would be founded, the declaration of Jesus as the Christ (Messiah) (Mat 16:18). Rock man he may think himself to be, He says, but let him realise that before cockcrow he would deny Him three times.

There is no contradiction between this and Mark’s reference to the cock crowing twice. Luke is speaking of cockcrow in general. He does not want to puzzle his readers by speaking of a double cock crow. The third of the Roman watches was called ‘cockcrow’, ending around 3:00 am. But Mark and Jesus were aware of the reality of life known to them through their familiarity with Jerusalem, and that the distant cocks would be heard first across the valley, and the nearer cocks a short time afterwards. In Jerusalem cock crow would only come after the second crowing of the cocks was heard.

It will be noted that in Matthew and Mark similar words as these were spoken as they were approaching the Garden. It may well have been that Jesus gave this warning twice, for the contexts and the wording are quite different. Or it may be that Luke (or his source) has transferred it here so as to fit in with his chiasmatic scheme.

Luk 22:34. The cock shall not crow this day, &c. As it is plain from this passage, and from the event, that the cock actually crew before Peter’s third denial, we must certainly take the words of St. Luke and St. John for the common time of cock-crowing, which probably did not arrive till after the cock, which Peter had heard, had crowed the second time, and perhaps oftener; for it is well known, that those vigilant animals, on any little disturbance, often crow at midnight, or before it, though they do not quit their roost till about three in the morning, which was usually called the cock-crowing. See on Mar 13:35 and the Inferences on Mark, xi
