Contextual Overview

13 and led him first to Annas, the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year. 14 Caiaphas was the one who told the Jews that it would be better if one man died for all the people. 15 Simon Peter and another one of Jesus' followers went along after Jesus. This follower knew the high priest, so he went with Jesus into the high priest's courtyard. 16 But Peter waited outside near the door. The follower who knew the high priest came back outside, spoke to the girl at the door, and brought Peter inside. 17 The girl at the door said to Peter, "Aren't you also one of that man's followers?" Peter answered, "No, I am not!" 18 It was cold, so the servants and guards had built a fire and were standing around it, warming themselves. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself. 19 The high priest asked Jesus questions about his followers and his teaching. 20 Jesus answered, "I have spoken openly to everyone. I have always taught in synagogues and in the Temple, where all the Jews come together. I never said anything in secret. 21 So why do you question me? Ask the people who heard my teaching. They know what I said." 22 When Jesus said this, one of the guards standing there hit him. The guard said, "Is that the way you answer the high priest?"

Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

Annas: Annas was dismissed from being high priest, ad 23, after filling that office for fifteen years; but, being a person of distinguished character, and having had no fewer than five sons who had successively enjoyed the dignity of the high-priesthood, and the present high priest Caiaphas being his son-in-law, he must have possessed much authority in the nation. It was at the palace of Caiaphas where the chief priests, elders, and scribes were assembled the whole of the night to see the issue of their stratagem. John 18:13, Matthew 26:57

bound: John 18:13

Reciprocal: Matthew 21:39 - caught Matthew 26:3 - Caiaphas Matthew 27:2 - bound Mark 14:53 - they led Luke 3:2 - Annas Luke 22:54 - took Acts 4:6 - Annas Acts 23:3 - smitten

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now Annas had sent him bound,.... As he found him, when the captain, band, and officers brought him to him; who having pleased himself with so agreeable a sight, and had asked him some few questions, and perhaps insulted him, sent him away in this manner,

unto Caiaphas the high priest: his son-in-law, as the more proper person to be examined before; and especially as the grand council was sitting at his house. This was done before Peter's first denial of Christ; which, it is plain, was in the palace of the high priest, and not in Annas's house; though there seems no reason on this account to place these words at the end of the 13th verse, as they are by some, since they manifestly refer to time past, and do not at all obscure or hinder the true order of the history, as standing here.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Compare John 18:13 with Matthew 26:57.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 24. Now Annas had sent him, c.] It has been observed before that the proper place of this verse is immediately after the 13th and, if it be allowed to stand here, it should be read in a parenthesis, and considered as a recapitulation of what had been before done.
