Context — Peter's Denial and Repentancegenerated
Luke 22:62 captures the moment after Peter's denial of Jesus. After realizing what he has done, Peter steps outside and is overwhelmed with grief. This scene emphasizes the emotional turmoil he experiences, reflecting the weight of his failure. The surrounding verses provide context, showing the Lord's gaze upon Peter just before this moment, which adds to the depth of Peter's sorrow as he acknowledges his betrayal.

The Key Word — ἐξελθὼν, exerchomaigenerated
The Greek word ἐξελθὼν (exerchomai) is a second aorist active participle meaning 'having gone out.' It indicates a completed action, emphasizing Peter's physical movement from the courtyard into the open air, which symbolizes his emotional departure from the scene of his denial.
This word is derived from the prefix ἐξ meaning 'out of' and the root ἔρχομαι meaning 'to come' or 'to go.' Its use here highlights both the physical act of leaving and the emotional state accompanying that action.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
The verse is rendered in the Berean Standard Bible as 'And he went outside and wept bitterly.' The KJV and ASV also use similar wording, maintaining the essence of Peter's action.
However, some translations, such as the YLT, specify 'Peter having gone without,' which emphasizes the subject's identity more explicitly. The use of 'outside' in the BSB contrasts with 'out' in the KJV and others, showing a slight variation in how the location is described.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main finite verb is ἔκλαυσεν, he wept, which is supported by two phrases: a participial phrase ἐξελθὼν describing Peter's action and an adverbial phrase ἔξω indicating where he went. This structure highlights the sequence of actions and the emotional response.
The adverbial phrase πικρῶς modifies the verb, providing insight into the intensity of Peter's weeping. The arrangement of these elements reflects the Greek preference for participial constructions to convey simultaneous actions.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The word ἐξελθὼν has a parallel in the Septuagint, where it translates the Hebrew word יָצָא (H3318), meaning 'to go out.' This connection shows a consistent use of the term for physical movement in both the Old and New Testaments.
Similarly, ἔξω corresponds with Hebrew terms like חוּץ (H2351), indicating an external location. This continuity emphasizes the significance of physical space in conveying emotional states.

The early church on this verse — how the Fathers read it
The early church Fathers reflect on Peter's weeping as a sign of repentance and the depth of his guilt after denying Christ. Their insights help us understand the significance of this moment.
Why did he weep? Because guilt overtook him: I am accustomed to weeping, if guilt is lacking to me, that is, if I do not avenge myself, if I do not obtain what I wickedly desire. Peter was grieved and wept; because he erred as a man.Early Church Fathers on Luke 22 →
To wash away the sin of denial, Peter needed the baptism of tears. From where would he get this, unless the Lord gave him this too? That is why the apostle Paul gave this advice to his people concerning deviant opinions and about how they…Early Church Fathers on Luke 22 →

καί (kai) is a conjunction meaning 'and,' used to connect words, phrases, and clauses. It serves various functions, including copulative and adjunctive uses, and can express cumulative ideas like 'also' or 'even.' The New Testament frequently employs it to link terms and sentences, as seen in verses like Matthew 2:18 and John 10:3. Abbott-Smith notes its use in both simple and complex structures, while Thayer emphasizes its role as the most common particle in the New Testament.

The Greek word ἐξέρχομαι, transliterated as exerchomai, is built from the prefix ἐξ meaning 'out of' and the root ἔρχομαι meaning 'to come' or 'to go.' It generally means to go or come out of a place, and can also refer to escaping, departing, or proceeding. In the New Testament, it appears in various contexts, including the expulsion of demons and the release of prisoners.

The Greek word ἔξω (i.e., *exo*) is an adverb meaning 'outside' or 'without.' It can function adverbially or as a preposition with the genitive, indicating location or exclusion. The New Testament uses it in contexts such as being outside a house (e.g., Mt 12:46) or referring to those outside the Christian community (e.g., 1 Cor 5:12). It also appears in various phrases indicating motion or absence.

The definite article — the commonest word in the Greek New Testament at 19,867 occurrences. Greek uses it more freely than English does and can drop it deliberately, so its presence and its absence both carry weight for a translator; but no single occurrence carries a message of its own. Here it simply gathers “the things” into one definite bundle.

THE, an adjective or definitive adjective.
1. This adjective is used as a definitive, that is, before nouns which are specific or understood; or it is used to limit their signification to a specific thing or things, or to describe them; as the laws of the twelve tables. the independent tribunals of justice in our country, are the security or private rights, and the best bulwark against arbitrary power. the sun is the source of light and heat.
This he calls the preaching of the cross.
2. the is also used rhetorically before a noun in the singular number, to denote a species by way of distinction; a single thing representing the whole. the fig tree putteth forth her green figs; the almond tree shall flourish; the grasshopper shall be a burden.
3. In poetry, the sometimes loses the final vowel before another vowel.

The Greek word Πέτρος (i.e., *Petros*) means 'rock' or 'stone' and refers specifically to Simon Peter, the Apostle. It is derived from a primary word indicating a piece of rock and is used in the New Testament to denote Peter's identity and role. The entries consistently emphasize its connection to the name Cephas and its metaphorical implications of strength and stability.

Peter
Originally called Simon (=Simeon ,i.e., “hearing”), a very common Jewish name in the New Testament. He was the son of Jona (Matt. 16:17). His mother is nowhere named in Scripture. He had a younger brother called Andrew, who first brought him to Jesus (John 1:40-42). His native town was Bethsaida, on the western coast of the Sea of Galilee, to which also Philip belonged. Here he was brought up by the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and was trained to the occupation of a fisher. His father had probably died while he was still young, and he and his brother were brought up under the care of Zebedee and his wife Salome (Matt. 27:56; Mark 15:40; 16:1). There the four youths…
(a rock or stone). The original name of this disciple was Simon, i.e. "hearer." He was the son of a man named Jonas, (Matthew 16:17; John 1:42; 21:16) and was brought up in his father’s occupation, that of a fisherman. He and his brother Andrew were partners of John end James, the sons of Zebedee, who had hired servants. Peter did not live, as a mere laboring man, in a hut by the seaside, but first at Bethsaida, and afterward in a house at Capernaum belonging to himself or his mother-in-law, which must have been rather a large one, since he received in it not only our Lord and his fellow disciples, but multitudes who were attracted by the miracles and preaching of Jesus. Peter was probably between thirty and forty pears of age at the date of his call. That call was preceded by a…
This name in Greek signifies a rock, as does also the name Cephas in Syriac. Peter was one of the twelve apostles, and was also called Simon, Mt 16:17, and Simeon, Ac 15:14. He was of Bethsaida, and was the son of Jonas, a fisherman, which occupation he also followed. After his marriage he resided at Capernaum, Mt 8:14 Lu 4:38, though called at a later period to labor else where as an apostle, and it would seem often accompanied in his journeys by his wife, 1Co 9:5. When first introduced to Jesus by his brother Andrew, he received from Him the name of Peter, Joh 1:42…

κλαίω is a Greek verb meaning 'to weep' or 'to lament,' often associated with loud expressions of sorrow, particularly for the dead. It can be used intransitively or transitively, as in 'to weep for' someone. The New Testament employs this term in various contexts, such as mourning (e.g., Matthew 2:18). Lexicons note its use across different dialects and literature, highlighting its long-standing presence in Greek.

The Greek word πικρῶς (transliterated as *pikrōs*) is an adverb meaning 'bitterly.' It derives from the adjective πικρός and is used in the New Testament to describe intense emotions, particularly grief, as seen in Matthew 26:75 and Luke 22:62. The term encompasses various forms of bitterness, both literal and metaphorical, and is associated with sharpness in taste and feeling.
