In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was GOD
Chapter 18
- When Jesus had spoken these words,
He went out with His disciples over the Brook Kidron,
where there was
a garden, which He and His disciples entered. (2 Sam. 15:23; Matt. 26:30; Mark 14:26; Mark 14:32)
- And Judas, who betrayed Him, also
knew the place;
for Jesus often met there with His disciples. (Luke 21:37; Like 22:39)
- Then Judas, having received a detachment
of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there
with lanterns, torches, and weapons.
- Jesus therefore, knowing all things
that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them,
"Whom are
you seeking?" (John 13:11)
- They answered Him, "Jesus of Nazareth."
Jesus said to them, "I am He." And Judas, who betrayed Him,
also stood with them. (Psalm 41:9)
- Then -- when He said to them, 'I
am He," -- they drew back and fell to the ground.
- Then He asked them again, "Whom
are you seeking?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth."
- Jesus answered, "I have told you
that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,"
- that the saying might be fulfilled
which He spoke, "Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none."
(John 6:39; John 17:12)
- Then Simon Peter, having a sword,
drew it and struck the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear.
The servant's name was Malchus. (Matt. 26:51)
- Then Jesus said to Peter, "Put
your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father
has given Me?" (Matt. 20:22)
- Then the detachment of troops and
the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him.
(Matt. 26:57)
- And they led Him away to Annas
first, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas who was high priest that
year. (Luke 3:2)
- Now it was Caiaphas who gave counsel
to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.
(John 11:50)
- 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 court-yard of the high priest. (Matt. 26:58; Mark 14:54)
- 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. (Matt. 26:69)
- 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." (Matt. 26:34)
- And 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.
- The high priest then asked Jesus
about His disciples and His doctrine. (Matt. 26:57)
- 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. (Luke 4:15; John 6:59)
- "Why do you ask Me? Ask those
who have heard Me what I said to them. Indeed they know what I said."
(Mark 12:37)
- 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?" (Jer. 20:2)
- Jesus answered him, "If I have
spoken evil, bear witness of the evil; but if well, why do you strike Me?"
- Then Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas
the high priest.
- Now Simon Peter stood and warmed
himself. Therefore they said to him, "You are not also one of
His disciples, are you?" He denied it and said, "I am not!"
- One of the servants of the high
priest, a relative of him whose ear Peter cut off, said, "Did I not see
you in the garden with Him?"
- Peter then denied again; and immediately
a rooster crowed. (John 13:38)
- Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas
to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves
did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that
they might eat the passover.
(Matt. 27:1; Acts 10:28)
- Pilate then went out to them and
said, "What accusation do you bring against this Man?"
- They answered and said to him,
"If He were not an evildoer, we would not have delivered Him up to you."
- Then Pilate said to them, "You
take Him and judge Him according to your law." Therefore the Jews said
to him, "It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death,"
- that the saying of Jesus might
be fulfilled which He spoke, signifying by what death He would die.
(Matt. 20:17-19; John 3:14)
- Then Pilate entered the Praetorium
again, called Jesus, and said to Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" (Matt. 27:11; John 19:4)
- Jesus answered him, "Are you speaking
for yourself on this, or did others tell you this about Me?"
- Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your
own nation and the chief priests have delivered You to me. What have
You done?"
- Jesus answered, "My kingdom is
not of this world. If My kingdom were of this world, My servants
would fight, so that I should not be delivered to the Jews; but now
My kingdom is not from here."
(1 Tim. 6:13;
Dan 2:44; John 6:15)
- Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are
You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I
am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause
I have come into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth.
Everyone who is of the truth hears My voice." (Isaiah 55:4; John 8:47)
- Pilate said to Him, "What is truth?"
And when he had said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to
them, "I find no fault in Him at all. (John 19:4-6)
- "But you have a custom that I should
release someone to you at the Passover. Do you therefore want me to
release to you the King of the Jews?" (Luke 23:17-25)
- Then they all cried again, saying,
"Not this Man, but Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber. (Isaiah 53:3; Acts 3:14; Luke 23:19)
