Thematic Bible: Jesus tried before


Thematic Bible



Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.

Those who captured Jesus took him to the house of Caiaphas, the high priest. The scribes and those in authority also gathered there.

As you know, the Passover will be here in two days. At that time the Son of man will be captured and impaled. The chief priest and the elders of the people assembled at the court of Caiaphas, the high priest.

Jesus said nothing. The high priest said to him: I put you on oath, by the living God, that you will tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus said to him: You said it yourself. And I say to you, after this you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power and coming on the clouds of heaven. Then the high priest ripped his robes apart and said: He has said evil against God! Why do we need more witnesses? You have heard his words of blasphemy!

They lead Jesus from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. It was early and they did not enter directly into the Praetorium, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the Passover.
