Context of Luke 22:57
55Some men had lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard. As they sat together, Peter sat among them. 56A female servant saw him as he sat facing the glow of the fire. She stared at him and said, “This man was with Jesus.” But Peter denied it by saying, “I don’t know him, woman.” 58A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You are one of them.” But Peter said, “Not me!” 59About an hour later another person insisted, “It’s obvious that this man was with him. He’s a Galilean!”
