Exegesis
The indirect object tō Petrō {τῷ Πέτρῳ | tôi Pét-rō} comes before the subject, which is identified by the repeated article in hē paidiskē hē thyrōros {ἡ παιδίσκη ἡ θυρωρός | hē pai-dís-kē hē thy-rō-rós}; this apposition binds the two nouns together as one speaker described by both status and function.
In context — John 18:17
Then the servant girl, the gatekeeper, said to Peter , “You are not among this man’s disciples either, are you?” He responded, “I am not.”
