18 Now the slaves and the guards were standing around a charcoal fire that they had made, because it was cold, and were warming themselves. Peter was also standing there keeping warm.
19 The high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and about his doctrine.
20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken publicly to the world. I have always taught in a synagogue or in the temple area where all the Jews gather, and in secret I have said nothing.
21 Why ask me? Ask those who heard me what I said to them. They know what I said.”
22 When he had said this, one of the temple guards standing there struck Jesus and said, “Is this the way you answer the high priest?”
23 Jesus answered him, “If I have spoken wrongly, testify to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike me?”
24 Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.
