Jesus Questioned and Struck Before the High Priest
John 18:19-24
19Therefore the high priest asked Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching.20Jesus answered him, "I have spoken to the world with boldness; I always taught in a synagogue and in the sacred place where all the Jews assemble, and I spoke nothing in secret."21Why are you asking me? Ask those who have heard what I spoke to them. Behold, these know what I said.22When he had said these things, one of the servants who was standing by struck Jesus with a slap and said, "Is that how you answer the high priest?"23Jesus answered him, "If I spoke badly, testify concerning the evil; but if well, why do you strike me?"24Annas therefore sent him, bound, to Caiaphas the high priest.
