Contextual Overview

⁵⁴ Jesus was arrested and led away to the house of the high priest, while Peter followed at a distance. ⁵⁵ Some people built a fire in the middle of the courtyard and were sitting around it. Peter sat there with them, ⁵⁶ and a servant girl saw him. Then after she had looked at him carefully, she said, "This man was with Jesus!" ⁵⁷ Peter said, "Woman, I don't even know that man!" ⁵⁸ A little later someone else saw Peter and said, "You are one of them!" "No, I'm not!" Peter replied. ⁵⁹ About an hour later another man insisted, "This man must have been with Jesus. They both come from Galilee." ⁶⁰ Peter replied, "I don't know what you are talking about!" Right then, while Peter was still speaking, a rooster crowed. ⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered that the Lord had said, "Before a rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will say three times that you don't know me." ⁶² Then Peter went out and cried hard.

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

took: Our blessed Lord before his death passed another examination. One was before the Jewish Sanhedrim, whose proper province it was to try such as were accused as false prophets or blasphemers. This was a kind of ecclesiastical court. The other, with which the next chapter opens, was before Pilate, the Roman governor of Judea at that time; he principally took cognizance of criminal things, such especially as concerned the peace of the country, considered as part of the Roman empire.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then took they him, and led him,.... The band of soldiers, the captain, and the officers of the Jews, laid hold on Jesus, and bound him, John 18:12 and led him out of the garden; notwithstanding the miracle he had wrought, and the humanity he had shown in healing the servant's ear; and notwithstanding his moving address to the chiefs of them; and indeed, this was a confirmation of his last words; for by this it appeared, that now was their time, and power was given to them, as the emissaries of Satan, to act against him:

and brought him into the high priest's house; where the sanhedrim were assembled; but this was not in the temple where they used to sit: it is true, indeed, that the chamber in the temple, called the chamber "Parhedrin", or "Palhedrin", was, בית דירה, "the dwelling house" of the high priest, seven days before the day of atonement k; and this was also called the "chamber of the counsellors" l; so that had the time of year agreed, it might have been thought that this was the place that Jesus was led to; but here the high priest did not usually dwell, and it is manifestly distinguished from his own house: for it is said m,

"seven days before the day of atonement, they separate, or remove the high priest, מביתו, "from his house", to the chamber of "Palhedrin";''
