Before the high priest: “I spoke openly to the world”; sent to Caiaphas

대제사장에게 드러내어 놓고 세상에 말하였노라 하시고 가야바에게 보내어지심

John 18:19–24: the high priest asks Jesus about his disciples and about his teaching. Jesus answers him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing in secret. Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them. Behold, they know the things which I said.” When he has said this, one of the officers standing by slaps Jesus with his hand, saying, “Do you answer the high priest like that?” Jesus answers him, “If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you beat me?” Annas sends Jesus bound to Caiaphas, the high priest.

John 18:13 calls Caiaphas high priest that year, and 18:24 calls him Caiaphas, the high priest; 18:19–23 calls the one who asks only the high priest.

John 18:19–23 does not name the high priest who questions Jesus. This collection does not name him in the summaries of that questioning and does not decide whether he is Annas or Caiaphas. Annas is joined to the event of 18:19–24 because at 18:24 Annas sends Jesus to Caiaphas.
