Contextual Overview
13 and they led him first to the presence of Annas; for he was father-in-law to Caiaphas, who was the high priest of that year. 14 And it was Caiaphas who counselled the Jews, that it was expedient, one man should die for the people. 15 And Simon Cephas and one other of the disciples went after Jesus. And that other disciple knew the high priest; and he entered with Jesus into the hall. 16 But Simon stood without at the door; and that other disciple, who knew the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper and brought in Simon. 17 And the maid who kept the door, said to Simon: Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? And he said: I am not. 18 And the servants and officials were standing, and had placed a fire to warm themselves 19 And the high priest interrogated Jesus respecting his disciples, and respecting his doctrine. 20 And Jesus said to him: I have discoursed openly with the people, and have at all times taught in the synagogue and in the temple, where all the Jews assemble; and I have uttered nothing in private. 21 Why dost thou interrogate me? Ask them who have heard, what I said to them: lo, they know what I have said. 22 And as he said these things, one of the officials standing by, smote the cheek of Jesus, and said to him: Givest thou such an answer to the high priest?

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself,.... This is repeated from John 18:18 to connect the history, and carry on the thread of the account of Peter's denial of Christ, which is interrupted by inserting the examination of Christ before the high priest, which was made at the same time. Peter stood among, and continued with the servants and officers of the high priest, warming himself by a fire they had made, it being a cold night; and this proved of bad consequence to him. The company and conversation of wicked men should be abstained from; no good is got thereby; continuance among such is very dangerous; men are too often more concerned for their bodies than their souls; Satan baits his temptations for the fleshly and sensitive part; and that which is thought to be for good, is the occasion of hurt.
They said therefore unto him; the servants and officers, among whom he stood warming himself, having observed what the maid had said to him:
art thou not also one of his disciples? suspecting that he was, though he had denied it, and therefore press him to give a direct answer: they might observe his countenance to fall, when the maid put the question to him; there might be something in his dress, and especially in his speech, which increased the suspicion:
but he denied it, and said, I am not; a second time. This denial of his being a disciple of Christ, as before, did not arise from a sense of his unworthiness to be one; nor from diffidence and distrust of a right to such a character; but from the fear of men; and being ashamed of Christ, he denies that which was his great mercy, privilege, and glory.
