Johannes 18:24

24 (Annas dan had Hem gebonden gezonden tot Kajafas, den hogepriester.)

Johannes 18:24 Meaning and Commentary

John 18:24

Now Annas had sent him bound
As he found him, when the captain, band, and officers brought him to him; who having pleased himself with so agreeable a sight, and had asked him some few questions, and perhaps insulted him, sent him away in this manner,

unto Caiaphas the high priest:
his son-in-law, as the more proper person to be examined before; and especially as the grand council was sitting at his house. This was done before Peter's first denial of Christ; which, it is plain, was in the palace of the high priest, and not in Annas's house; though there seems no reason on this account to place these words at the end of the 13th verse, as they are by some, since they manifestly refer to time past, and do not at all obscure or hinder the true order of the history, as standing here.

Johannes 18:24 In-Context

22 En als Hij dit zeide, gaf een van de dienaren, die daarbij stond, Jezus een kinnebakslag, zeggende: Antwoordt Gij alzo den hogepriester?

23 Jezus antwoordde hem: Indien Ik kwalijk gesproken heb, betuig van het kwade; en indien wel, waarom slaat gij Mij?

24 (Annas dan had Hem gebonden gezonden tot Kajafas, den hogepriester.)

25 En Simon Petrus stond en warmde zich. Zij zeiden dan tot hem: Zijt gij ook niet uit Zijn discipelen? Hij loochende het, en zeide: Ik ben niet.

26 Een van de dienstknechten des hogepriesters, die maagschap was van dengene, dien Petrus het oor afgehouwen had, zeide: Heb ik u niet gezien in den hof met Hem?
