1 I rekavši ovo Isus iziđe s učenicima svojim preko potoka Kedrona gde beše vrt, u koji uđe On i učenici Njegovi. 2 A Juda, izdajnik Njegov, znaše ono mesto; jer se Isus često skupljaše onde s učenicima svojim. 3 Onda Juda uze četu i od glavara svešteničkih i fariseja momke, i dođe onamo s fenjerima i sa svećama i s oružjem. 4 A Isus znajući sve što će biti od Njega iziđe i reče im: Koga tražite? 5 Odgovoriše Mu: Isusa Nazarećanina. Isus im reče: Ja sam. A s njima stajaše i Juda koji Ga izdavaše. 6 A kad im reče: Ja sam; izmakoše se natrag i popadaše na zemlju. 7 Onda ih opet zapita Isus: Koga tražite? A oni rekoše: Isusa Nazarećanina. 8 Isus im odgovori: Kazah vam da sam ja. Ako dakle mene tražite, ostavite ove nek idu. 9 Da se izvrši reč što reče: Ne izgubih ni jednog od onih koje si mi dao. 10 A Simon Petar imaše nož, pa ga izvadi i udari slugu poglavara svešteničkog, i odseče mu desno uho. A sluzi beše ime Malho. 11 Onda reče Isus Petru: Zadeni nož u nožnice. Čašu koju mi dade Otac zar da je ne pijem? 12 A četa i vojvoda i momci jevrejski uhvatiše Isusa i svezaše Ga, 13 i odvedoše Ga najpre Ani, jer beše tast Kajafi, koji beše poglavar sveštenički one godine. 14 A Kajafa beše onaj što dade savet Judejcima da je bolje da umre jedan čovek nego narod da propadne. 15 Za Isusom, pak, iđaše Simon Petar i drugi učenik; a učenik onaj beše poznat kod poglavara svešteničkog, i uđe s Isusom u dvor poglavara svešteničkog; 16 a Petar stajaše napolju kod vrata. Onda iziđe onaj učenik što beše poznat kod poglavara svešteničkog i reče vratarici te uvede Petra. 17 Onda reče sluškinja vratarica Petru: Da nisi i ti učenik ovog čoveka? On reče: Nisam. 18 A sluge i momci behu naložili oganj i stajahu te se grejahu, jer beše zima; a i Petar stajaše s njima i grejaše se. 19 Poglavar, pak, sveštenički zapita Isusa za učenike Njegove i za Njegovu nauku. 20 Isus mu odgovori: Ja govorih javno svetu, ja svagda učih u zbornici i u crkvi, gde se svagda skupljaju Judejci, i ništa tajno ne govorih. 21 Što pitaš mene? Pitaj one koji su slušali šta sam im govorio: evo ovi znaju šta sam ja govorio. 22 A kad On ovo reče, jedan od momaka koji stajahu onde udari Isusa po obrazu, i reče: Zar tako odgovaraš poglavaru svešteničkom? 23 Isus mu odgovori: Ako zlo rekoh, dokaži da je zlo; ako li dobro, zašto me biješ? 24 I Ana posla Ga svezanog Kajafi, poglavaru svešteničkom. 25 A Simon Petar stajaše i grejaše se. Onda mu rekoše: Da nisi i ti od učenika njegovih? A on se odreče i reče: Nisam. 26 Reče jedan od slugu poglavara svešteničkog koji beše rođak onome što mu Petar odseče uho: Ne videh li ja tebe u vrtu s njim? 27 Onda se Petar opet odreče; i odmah petao zapeva. 28 A Isusa povedoše od Kajafe u sudnicu. Ali beše jutro, i oni ne uđoše u sudnicu da se ne bi opoganili, nego da bi mogli jesti pashu. 29 Onda Pilat izađe k njima napolje i reče: Kakvu krivicu iznosite na ovog čoveka? 30 Odgovoriše mu i rekoše: Kad on ne bi bio zločinac ne bismo ga predali tebi. 31 A Pilat im reče: Uzmite ga vi i po zakonu svom sudite mu. A Jevreji mu rekoše: Mi ne smemo nikoga pogubiti. 32 Da se zbude reč Isusova koju reče kazujući kakvom će smrti umreti. 33 Onda uđe Pilat opet u sudnicu, i dozva Isusa, i reče Mu: Ti si car judejski? 34 Isus mu odgovori: Govoriš li ti to sam od sebe, ili ti drugi kazaše za mene? 35 Pilat odgovori: Zar sam ja Jevrejin? Rod tvoj i glavari sveštenički predaše te meni; šta si učinio? 36 Isus odgovori: Carstvo moje nije od ovog sveta; kad bi bilo od ovog sveta carstvo moje, onda bi sluge moje branile da ne bih bio predan Jevrejima; ali carstvo moje nije odavde. 37 Onda Mu reče Pilat: Dakle si ti car? Isus odgovori: Ti govoriš da sam ja car. Ja sam za to rođen, i zato dođoh na svet da svedočim istinu. I svaki koji je od istine sluša glas moj. 38 Reče Mu Pilat: Šta je istina? I ovo rekavši iziđe opet k Jevrejima, i reče im: Ja nikakve krivice ne nalazim na njemu. 39 A u vas je običaj da vam jednog pustim na pashu, hoćete li, dakle, da vam pustim cara judejskog? 40 Onda svi povikaše opet govoreći: Ne ovog, nego Varavu. A Varava beše hajduk.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
When the grand and lengthened discourse was concluded which the Lord delivered after supper, and on the eve of shedding His blood for us, to the disciples who were then with Him, and had added the prayer addressed to His Father, the evangelist John began thereafter the narrative of His passion in these words: "When Jesus had so spoken, He …

An awful thing is death, and very full of terror, but not to those who have learnt the true wisdom which is above. For he that knows nothing certain concerning things to come, but deems it to be a certain dissolution and end of life, with reason shudders and is afraid, as though he were passing into non-existence.

… the precepts which He taught, did not offer the other cheek to the servant of the high priest when smiting Him thereon; but, so far from that, said, "If I have spoken evil, hear witness of the evil; but if well, why smitest thou me?" Yet was He not on that account unprepared in heart, for the salvation of all, …

For, because both continued with Him at His crucifixion, taking away the ground of his own commendation, he saith, "That disciple was known unto the high priest." But James survived not a long time, but from the beginning he was so greatly filled with warmth, and so forsook all the things of men, and mounted up to an height unutterable, …
