17 Then the servant girl who kept the door said to Kĕpha, “Are you also one of this Man’s taught ones?” He said, “I am not.”
18 And the servants and officers who had made a fire of coals stood there, because it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Kĕpha was standing with them and warming himself.
19 Then the high priest asked יהושע about His taught ones and His teaching.
20 יהושע answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in the congregation and in the Set-apart Place, where the Yehuḏim always meet, and I spoke no word in secret.
21 “Why do you ask Me? Ask those who have heard Me what I said to them. See, they know what I said.”
22 And when He had said this, one of the officers who stood by slapped יהושע in the face, saying, “Do You answer the high priest this way?”
23 יהושע answered him, “If I have spoken evilly, bear witness of the evil, but if well, why do you strike Me?”
