Jesus Faces Annas and Caiaphas

¹²So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews^[a] arrested Jesus and bound him. ¹³First they ^(A)led him to ^(B)Annas, for he was the father-in-law of ^(C)Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. ¹⁴It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews ^(D)that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.

Jesus Before Caiaphas and the Council

⁵⁷^(A)Then ^(B)those who had seized Jesus led him to ^(C)Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered. ⁵⁸And ^(D)Peter was following him at a distance, as far as ^(E)the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with ^(F)the guards to see the end. ⁵⁹Now the chief priests and the whole council^[a] ^(G)were seeking false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death, ⁶⁰but they found none, ^(H)though many false witnesses came forward. At last ^(I)two came forward ⁶¹and said, “This man said, ^(J)‘I am able to ^(K)destroy the temple of God, and to rebuild it in three days.’” ⁶²And the high priest stood up and said, “Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?”^[b] ⁶³^(L)But Jesus remained silent. ^(M)And the high priest said to him, ^(N)“I adjure you by ^(O)the living God, ^(P)tell us if you are ^(Q)the Christ, ^(R)the Son of God.” ⁶⁴Jesus said to him, ^(S)“You have said so. But I tell you, from now on ^(T)you will see the Son of Man ^(U)seated at the right hand of Power and ^(V)coming on the clouds of heaven.” ⁶⁵Then the high priest ^(W)tore his robes and said, ^(X)“He has uttered blasphemy. What further witnesses do we need? You have now heard his blasphemy. ⁶⁶What is your judgment?” They answered, ^(Y)“He deserves death.” ⁶⁷Then ^(Z)they spit in his face ^(AA)and ^(AB)struck him. And some slapped him, ⁶⁸saying, “Prophesy to us, you ^(AC)Christ! Who is it that struck you?”
