So Simon Peter Simon Peter, often simply referred to as Peter, is one of the most prominent apostles in the New Testament. His name, Simon, is of Hebrew origin, meaning "he has heard," while Peter, from the Greek "Petros," means "rock." This duality in his name reflects his role as both a listener and a foundational figure in the early Church. Historically, Peter is known for his impulsive nature and deep devotion to Jesus, characteristics that are evident in this passage as he seeks clarity from Jesus. motioned to him to ask Jesus which one he was talking about That he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.--The better reading is, and saith unto him, Say who it is of whom He speaketh. St. Peter supposes that the disciple whom Jesus loved is more than any other in the confidence of his Master, and that he knew who was here referred to, and makes a sign to him to tell what he knew. Verse 24. - Simon Peter therefore beckoned to this (disciple), and saith to him. Wherefore he must have been far enough off to beckon, and near enough to speak. Westcott imagines that Peter was on the left side, in the place of real honor (?), though not in such proximity as, unobserved, to ask the question. Edersheim also speaks of the left side as the place of honor, but assigns no adequate reason for such a violation of universal usage and metaphor. The natural impetuosity of Peter would have induced him, if he had been so near, to have asked the question himself. It is more probable that Judas himself was there, judging from the language of Matthew 26:23, and from the act which follows. Either with T.R., He spake to him, to ask who it might be; or, saith, Tell (us) who it is concerning whom he speaks; as though Peter had rushed to the conclusion that John knew. This is singularly like Peter, and John may tacitly have been supposed to be better acquainted than the rest with the mind of Jesus.Parallel Commentaries ...
