Exegesis
The verse opens with the clause ho de Petros ephe autō {ὁ δὲ Πέτρος ἔφη αὐτῷ | ho de Pé-tros é-phē au-tō̂} “but Peter said to Him,” where ho de functions as a contrastive discourse marker, signaling a shift of speaker and highlighting Peter’s response against the backdrop of the other disciples. The main verb ephe is a narrative reporting verb that introduces Peter’s direct speech.
In context — Mark 14:29
But Peter said to Him , “Even if all stumble , I will not.”
