(Now seven sons of a man named Sceva, a Jewish high priest, were doing this.)

Now while Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the high priest’s slave girls came by.

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

Then they arrested Jesus, led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter was following at a distance.

Then the chief priests and the elders of the people met together in the palace of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas.

But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest’s courtyard. After going in, he sat with the guards to see the outcome.

One of the bystanders drew his sword and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his ear.

Then one of them struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his right ear.

For the bodies of those animals whose blood the high priest brings into the sanctuary as an offering for sin are burned outside the camp.

But one of those with Jesus grabbed his sword, drew it out, and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his ear.

how he entered the house of God when Abiathar was high priest and ate the sacred bread, which is against the law for any but the priests to eat, and also gave it to his companions?”

And Peter had followed him from a distance, up to the high priest’s courtyard. He was sitting with the guards and warming himself by the fire.

Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, pulled it out and struck the high priest’s slave, cutting off his right ear. (Now the slave’s name was Malchus.)

Simon Peter and another disciple followed them as they brought Jesus to Annas. (Now the other disciple was acquainted with the high priest, and he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard.)

But Simon Peter was left standing outside by the door. So the other disciple who was acquainted with the high priest came out and spoke to the slave girl who watched the door, and brought Peter inside.

One of the high priest’s slaves, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, “Did I not see you in the orchard with him?”
