Over the brook Kedron, past gardens and olive groves, and through the hushed streets of the sleeping city, they hurried Jesus. It was past midnight, and the cries of the hooting mob that followed Him broke sharply upon the still air. The Saviour was bound and closely guarded, and He moved painfully. But in eager haste His captors made their way with Him to the palace of Annas, the ex-high priest.

Dette kapitel er bygget op over Matt 26,57-75; 27,1; Mark 14,53-72; 15,1
De skyndte sig af sted med Jesus over bækken Kedron, forbi haver og olivenlunde og gennem den slumrende bys stille gader. Det var over midnatstid, og skrigene fra den hujende menneskehob, der fulgte efter ham, lød skingrende i den stille luft. Frelseren var bunden og strengt bevogtet, og han bevægede sig med vanskelighed. Men i største hast skyndte hans fangevogtere sig at føre ham til den forrige ypperstepræst Annas palads.
