SCRIPTURE

"And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them." — Luke 22:55 (ASV)

When they had kindled a fire.—The fire is mentioned by St. Luke in common with St. Mark and St. John.

Of the hall.—Better, of the court-yard—“hall” with us conveying the idea of a covered space inside the house.
