'Answer' in the Bible

Then they said to him, "Who are you? Tell us so that we can give an answer to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

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?"

and he went back into the governor's residence and said to Jesus, "Where do you come from?" But Jesus gave him no answer.
