SEV Biblia, Chapter 22:34

Y �l dijo: Pedro, te digo que el gallo no cantar� hoy antes que t� niegues tres veces que me conoces.

---

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Luke 22:34

Verse 34. The cock shall not crow this day] Matt. xxvi. 34, and Mark xiv. 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 Matt. xxvi. 31-35.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 34. And he said , etc.] �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 ( Mark 14:30) or this night, as in ( Matthew 26:34) for it was now night; a natural day includes both night and day; a like way of speaking, see in ( Luke 2:8,11) before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me ; as he did, ( Luke 22:57,58,60). (See Gill on � Matthew 26:34�).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 21-38 - How unbecoming is the worldly ambition of being the greatest, to the character of a follower of Jesus, who took upon him the form of servant, and humbled himself to the death of the cross! In the way to eternal happiness, we must expect to be assaulted and sifted by Satan If he cannot destroy, he will try to disgrace or distress us. Nothin more certainly forebodes a fall, in a professed follower of Christ than self-confidence, with disregard to warnings, and contempt of danger. Unless we watch and pray always, we may be drawn in the cours of the day into those sins which we were in the morning most resolve against. If believers were left to themselves, they would fall; but they are kept by the power of God, and the prayer of Christ. Our Lor gave notice of a very great change of circumstances now approaching The disciples must not expect that their friends would be kind to the as they had been. Therefore, he that has a purse, let him take it, for he may need it. They must now expect that their enemies would be mor fierce than they had been, and they would need weapons. At the time the apostles understood Christ to mean real weapons, but he spake only of the weapons of the spiritual warfare. The sword of the Spirit is the sword with which the disciples of Christ must furnish themselves.

Robertson's NT Word Studies

22:34 {Until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me} (hews tris me aparnesei eidenai). "Thrice" is in all four Gospels here for they all give this warning to Peter (#Mr 14:30; Mt 26:34; Lu 22:34; Joh 18:38). Peter will even deny knowing Jesus (eidenai).
