Robertson's Word Pictures of the NT

Luke 22:61

The Lord turned

(στραφεις ο κυριος). Second aorist passive participle of στρεφω, coming verb. Graphic picture drawn by Luke alone.Looked upon Peter

(ενεβλεψεν τω Πετρω). Ingressive aorist active indicative of ενβλεπω, an old and vivid verb, to glance at.Remembered

(υπεμνησθη). First aorist passive indicative of υπομιμνησκω, common verb to remind one of something (υπο giving a suggestion or hint). The cock crowing and the look brought swiftly back to Peter's mind the prophecy of Jesus and his sad denials. The mystery is how he had forgotten that warning.
