John 18:12-18

Jesus before the Priests

12 1So 2the Roman cohort and the commander and the 3officers of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound Him,
13 and led Him to 4Annas first; for he was father-in-law of 5Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 Now Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that 6it was expedient for one man to die on behalf of the people.
15 7Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so was another disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered with Jesus into 8the court of the high priest,
16 9but Peter was standing at the door outside. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the doorkeeper, and brought Peter in.
17 10Then the slave-girl who kept the door said to Peter, "11You are not also one of this man's disciples, are you?" He said, "I am not."
18 Now the slaves and the 12officers were standing there, having made 13a charcoal fire, for it was cold and they were 14warming themselves; and Peter was also with them, standing and warming himself.
