The Denial of Saint Peter by Caravaggio Flemish painting: Denial of Saint Peter by Gerard Seghers The Denial of St Peter by Gerard van Honthorst (1622–24). The prediction, made by Jesus during the Last Supper that Peter would deny and disown him, appears in the Gospel of Matthew 26:33–35, the Gospel of Mark 14:29–31, the Gospel of Luke 22:33–34 and the Gospel of John 13:36–38.
Jesus predicts his betrayal three times in the New Testament, a narrative which is included in all four Canonical Gospels. [1] This prediction takes place during the Last Supper in Matthew 26:24–25, Mark 14:18–21, Luke 22:21–23, and John 13:21–30. [1] Before that, in John 6:70, Jesus warns his disciples that one among them is "a devil".
Peter, "ardent and impulsive as ever", then says he will not desert Jesus, even if all the others do. [22] Jesus tells him that on that very night Peter will disown Jesus three times before the rooster crows twice in the morning. Peter refutes it and says he will follow Jesus even if it means his own death, and the other Apostles do the same.
The Restoration of Peter (also known as the Re-commissioning of Peter) [1] is an incident described in John 21 of the New Testament in which Jesus appeared to his disciples after his resurrection and spoke to Peter in particular. Jesus restored Peter to fellowship after Peter had previously denied him and told Peter to feed Jesus' sheep.
The arrest of Jesus was a pivotal event in Christianity recorded in the canonical gospels.It occurred shortly after the Last Supper (during which Jesus gave his final sermon), and immediately after the kiss of Judas, which is traditionally said to have been an act of betrayal since Judas made a deal with the chief priests to arrest Jesus.

This, he holds, explains why the authorities did not try to arrest Jesus prior to Judas's betrayal. [4] John P. Meier sums up the historical consensus, stating, "We only know two basic facts about [Judas]: (1) Jesus chose him as one of the Twelve, and (2) he handed over Jesus to the Jerusalem authorities, thus precipitating Jesus's execution." [36]
Albert Barnes reasons that Peter "means to say that their offence was mitigated by the fact that they were ignorant that [Jesus] was the Messiah". He adds that the same thing was affirmed by Jesus as he died: "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do" ( Luke 23:34 ).
