Contextual Overview

53 And they took Jesus to Caiaphas the high priest; and there gathered to him all the high priests and the scribes and the elders. 54 But Simon followed him afar off, up to the courtyard of the high priest; and he sat with the servants, warming himself before the fire. 55 The high priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus so that they might put him to death; but they could not find it. 56 For even though many testified against him, their testimonies were not worthy. 57 Then some men, who were false witnesses, stood up against him, and said, 58 We heard him say, I will tear down this temple which is made with hands, and in three days I will build another which is not made with hands. 59 But even this testimony was not worthy. 60 Then the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, and said, Do you not answer? What do these testify against you? 61 But Jesus was silent, and made no answer. Again the high priest asked him, and said, Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One? 62 Jesus said to him, I am; and you will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of the sky.
