John 18:11-21

Listen to John 18:11-21
11 So Jesus said to Peter, "Put the sword into [its] sheath! The cup that the Father has given me--shall I not drink it?"

Jesus Taken to Annas

12 Then the cohort and the military tribune and the officers of the Jews seized Jesus and tied him up,
13 and brought [him] to Annas first, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.
14 (Now it was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was better [that] one man die for the people.)

Peter Denies Jesus the First Time

15 So Simon Peter and another disciple followed Jesus. (Now that disciple was known to the high priest, and entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.)
16 But Peter was standing by 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 Then the female slave [who was] the doorkeeper said to Peter, "You are not also [one] of the disciples of this man, [are you]?" He said, "I am not!"
18 (Now the slaves and the officers were standing there, having made a charcoal fire because it was cold, and they were warming themselves. And Peter was also standing there with them and warming himself.)

Jesus Before Annas

19 So the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.
20 Jesus replied to him, "I have spoken openly to the world. I always taught in the synagogue and in the temple [courts] where all the Jews assemble, and I have said nothing in secret.
21 Why are you asking me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them! Behold, these [people] know what I said."
