12
Then the detachment of troops and the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him.
13
And they led Him away to Annas first, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest that year.
14
Now it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
15
And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.
16
But Peter stood at the door outside. Then the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to her who kept the door, and brought Peter in.
17
Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Peter, "You are not also one of this Man's disciples, are you?" He said, "I am not."
18
Now the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself.
19
The high priest then asked Jesus about His disciples and His doctrine.
20
Jesus answered him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet, and in secret I have said nothing.
21
Why do you ask Me? Ask those who have heard Me what I said to them. Indeed they know what I said."
22
And when He had said these things, one of the officers who stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, "Do You answer the high priest like that?"
