The use of "Man" indicates a casual address, reflecting Peter's attempt to distance himself from the accusation. This denial occurs in the courtyard of the high priest's house, a setting that underscores the tension and fear Peter felt. The denial is significant as it highlights human weakness and fear, even among the most devoted followers.
