John 18:1–18
Matt. 26:47–56; Mark 14:43–52; Luke 22:47–53
18 When Jesus had spoken these words, aHe went out with His disciples over bthe Brook Kidron, where there was a garden, which He and His disciples entered. 2 And Judas, who betrayed Him, also knew the place; cfor Jesus often met there with His disciples. 3 dThen Judas, having received a detachment of troops, and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, came there with lanterns, torches, and weapons. 4 Jesus therefore, eknowing all things that would come upon Him, went forward and said to them, “Whom are you seeking?”
5 They answered Him, f“Jesus 1of Nazareth.”
Jesus said to them, “I am He.” And Judas, who gbetrayed Him, also stood with them. 6 Now when He said to them, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.
7 Then He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?”
And they said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”
8 Jesus answered, “I have told you that I am He. Therefore, if you seek Me, let these go their way,” 9 that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, h“Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.”
10 iThen 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.
11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink jthe cup which My Father has given Me?”
First Jewish Trial Before Annas
Matt. 26:69, 70; Mark 14:66–68; Luke 22:55–57
12 Then the detachment of troops and the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him. 13 And kthey led Him away to lAnnas first, for he was the father-in-law of mCaiaphas who was high priest that year. 14 nNow it was Caiaphas who advised the Jews that it was 2expedient that one man should die for the people.
15 oAnd Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did panother 3disciple. Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest. 16 qBut 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 rnot.”
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.
