John 18:27

Turkish (Yaşam Yayınları)

Petrus yine inkâr etti ve tam o anda horoz öttü.

Bu ne anlama geliyor?

In this verse from the Gospel of John, Peter denies knowing Jesus for a second time. Soon after, a rooster crows, fulfilling Jesus's earlier prophecy. This shows how fear can lead people to deny their commitments.

Çocuklar için açıklama

Imagine you promised to be in a school play but got scared and said no when your friend asked if you were part of it. Then a noise reminded everyone of what really happened. That's like Peter saying he didn't know Jesus, even though he did.

Tarihsel arka plan

The Gospel of John was written by one of Jesus’s disciples around AD 90-100 for Greek-speaking Christians to emphasize Jesus as the Son of God. The cultural setting reflects early Christian communities facing persecution and questions about their faith.
