Matthew 26:57-59

New Life Version

Jesus Stands in Front of the Religious Leaders ^(A)

⁵⁷ Those who had taken Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas. He was the head religious leader. The teachers of the Law and the other leaders were gathered there. ⁵⁸ But Peter followed Him a long way behind while going to the house of the head religious leader. Then he went in and sat with the helpers to see what would happen.

⁵⁹ The religious leaders and the other leaders and all the court were looking for false things to say against Jesus. They wanted some reason to kill Him.
