Caiaphas

⁵ The next day the rulers, elders, and scribes assembled in Jerusalem,

⁶ along with Annas the high priest, Caiaphas, John, Alexander, and many others from the high priest’s family.

But one of them, named Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all!

¹³ They brought Him first to Annas, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year.

¹⁴ Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it would be better if one man died for the people.

Then Annas sent Him, still bound, to Caiaphas the high priest.

Then they led Jesus away from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. By now it was early morning, and the Jews did not enter the Praetorium, to avoid being defiled and unable to eat the Passover.

¹ In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, while Pontius Pilate was governor of Judea, Herod tetrarch of Galilee, his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

² during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John son of Zechariah in the wilderness.

³ At that time the chief priests and elders of the people assembled in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,

⁴ and they conspired to arrest Jesus covertly and kill Him.

Those who had arrested Jesus led Him away to the house of Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and elders had gathered.
