John 18:25

Context
Peter’s Second and Third Denials

18:25 Meanwhile Simon Peter was standing in the courtyard 1  warming himself. They said to him, “You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?” 2  Peter 3  denied it: “I am not!”

1 tn The words “in the courtyard” are not in the Greek text. They are supplied for the benefit of the modern reader, to link this scene to the preceding one in John 18:15-18.

2 tn Questions prefaced with μή (mh) in Greek anticipate a negative answer. This can sometimes be indicated by using a “tag” at the end in English (here the tag is “are you?”).

3 tn Grk “That one denied it and said”; the referent of the pronoun (Peter) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
