John 18 — Context

16

But Peter was left standing outside by the door. So the other disciple who was acquainted with the high priest came out and spoke to the slave girl who watched the door, and brought Peter inside.

17

The girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter,“You’re not one of this man’s disciples too, are you?” He replied,“I am not.”

18

(Now the slaves and the guards were standing around a charcoal fire they had made, warming themselves because it was cold. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself.)

19

Jesus Questioned by Annas While this was happening, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.

20

Jesus replied,“I have spoken publicly to the world. I always taught in the synagogues and in the temple courts, where all the Jewish people assemble together. I have said nothing in secret.

21

Why do you ask me? Ask those who heard what I said. They know what I said.”

22

When Jesus had said this, one of the high priest’s officers who stood nearby struck him on the face and said,“Is that the way you answer the high priest?”
