MARK 14:70 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.”
Again he denied it. After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean — the second denial is followed by a third challenge from a wider group. Your accent betrays you — the Galilean accent was distinctive (Matthew 26:73 specifies this). The Galilean accent places Peter in the same region as Jesus, confirming the servant girl's identification.
