The High Priest Questions Jesus
The
high priest therefore asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his
teaching. Jesus answered
him, "I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in
synagogues, and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing
in secret. Why do you
ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them. Behold, these
know the things which I said."
When he had said
this, one of the officers standing by slapped Jesus with his hand, saying,
"Do you answer the high priest like that?"
Jesus answered him,
"If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if
well, why do you beat me?"
Annas sent him bound
to Caiaphas, the high priest.
