Adam Clarke
As long as I am in this tabernacle - By tabernacle we are to understand his body; and hence several of the versions have , body, instead of , tabernacle. Peter' s mode of speaking is very remarkable: as long as I AM in this tabernacle, so then the body was not Peter, but Peter dwelt in that body. Is not this a proof that St. Peter believed his soul to be very distinct from his body? As a man' s house is the place where he dwells, so the body is the house where the soul dwells.
