SEV Biblia, Chapter 16:7
Pero id, decid a sus discípulos y a Pedro, que l va delante de vosotros a Galilea; allí le veris, como os dijo.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Mark 16:7
Verse 7. Tell his disciples and Peter] Why is not Pet. included among the disciples? For this plain reason,-he had forfeited his discipleship, and all right to the honour and privileges of an apostle, by denying his Lord and Master. However, he is now a penitent:-tell him that Jesus is risen from the dead, and is ready to heal his backsliding, and love him freely; so that, after being converted, he may strengthen his brethren.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 7. But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter , etc..] Peter is particularly mentioned, not as distinct from the apostles, or as if he was not one of them, having sinned in the manner he had done; much less because he was the chief of them; but to comfort him in his great sorrow, on account of his fall; and to encourage him to meet Christ with the rest of his disciples, who might be both afraid and ashamed, because he had so basely denied him: this is a kind intimation, in favour of Peter; none of the other evangelists observe it; but this Gospel being published, as is thought by some, under the direction and examination of Peter himself, he was careful to relate every thing, that either aggravated his own crime, or illustrated the grace of God, and love of Christ towards him. The Persic version puts Peter first, rendering it, say to Cephas and the rest of the disciples; all copies, and other versions, put him last: that he goeth before you into Galilee, there shall ye see him ; (see Gill on Matthew 28:7); as he said unto you , as in ( Mark 14:28).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-8 - Nicodemus brought a large quantity of spices, but these good women di not think that enough. The respect others show to Christ, should no hinder us from showing our respect. And those who are carried by holy zeal, to seek Christ diligently, will find the difficulties in their way speedily vanish. When we put ourselves to trouble and expense, from love to Christ, we shall be accepted, though our endeavours are no successful. The sight of the angel might justly have encouraged them but they were affrighted. Thus many times that which should be matte of comfort to us, through our own mistake, proves a terror to us. He was crucified, but he is glorified. He is risen, he is not here, no dead, but alive again; hereafter you will see him, but you may here se the place where he was laid. Thus seasonable comforts will be sent to those that lament after the Lord Jesus. Peter is particularly named Tell Peter; it will be most welcome to him, for he is in sorrow for sin. A sight of Christ will be very welcome to a true penitent, and true penitent is very welcome to a sight of Christ. The men ran with all the haste they could to the disciples; but disquieting fears ofte hinder us from doing that service to Christ and to the souls of men which, if faith and the joy of faith were strong, we might do.

Robertson's NT Word Studies
16:7 {And Peter} (kai twi petrwi). Only in Mark, showing that Peter remembered gratefully this special message from the Risen Christ. Later in the day Jesus will appear also to Peter, an event that changed doubt to certainty with the apostles (#Lu 24:34; 1Co 15:5). See on Mt 28:7 for discussion of promised meeting in Galilee.
