He sat in the "court" "with the servants" (better, officers, as in John 18:18) and the slaves, who, in the chill of the early dawn, had lighted a charcoal fire. Female slaves who acted as gate-keepers were passing to and fro. The cold night air had told on the disciple, and he too, weary and chilled, drew near the fire and warmed himself. To see the end.--There is something singularly suggestive in this account of Peter's motive. It was, we may believe, more than a vague curiosity.
