THIS IS LIFE ETERNAL (v.3)
If we truly long to be part of God's family - this is our goal - life eternal with God + Christ in the kingdom age to come. So how do we get life eternal? Jesus tells us clearly here - It is to "know" God + Jesus Christ whom God had sent. This word "Know" is a Greek word meaning to "know by experiential knowledge. That means making God + Christ real in our lives. It can't be just a matter of head knowledge - but living out the example of Christ in our lives. Eternal life requires entering into a personal relationship with God in Christ Jesus. Let's commit ourselves to doing our best to live after this example.

1. In the six <8337> and thirtieth <7970> year <8141> of the reign <4438> of Asa <609> Baasha <1201> king <4428> of Israel <3478> came up <5927>(8804) against Judah <3063>, and built <1129>(8799) Ramah <7414>, to the intent that <1115> he might let <5414>(8800) none go out <3318>(8802) or come in <935>(8802) to Asa <609> king <4428> of Judah <3063>.
2. Then Asa <609> brought out <3318>(8686) silver <3701> and gold <2091> out of the treasures <214> of the house <1004> of the LORD <3068> and of the king's <4428> house <1004>, and sent <7971>(8799) to Benhadad <1130> king <4428> of Syria <758>, that dwelt <3427>(8802) at Damascus <1834>, saying <559>(8800),
3. There is a league <1285> between me and thee, as there was between my father <1> and thy father <1>: behold, I have sent <7971>(8804) thee silver <3701> and gold <2091>; go <3212>(8798), break <6565>(8685) thy league <1285> with Baasha <1201> king <4428> of Israel <3478>, that he may depart <5927>(8799) from me.
4. And Benhadad <1130> hearkened <8085>(8799) unto king <4428> Asa <609>, and sent <7971>(8799) the captains <8269> of his armies <2428> against the cities <5892> of Israel <3478>; and they smote <5221>(8686) Ijon <5859>, and Dan <1835>, and Abelmaim <66>, and all the store <4543> cities <5892> of Naphtali <5321>.
5. And it came to pass, when Baasha <1201> heard <8085>(8800) it, that he left off <2308>(8799) building <1129>(8800) of Ramah <7414>, and let his work <4399> cease <7673>(8686).
6. Then Asa <609> the king <4428> took <3947>(8804) all Judah <3063>; and they carried away <5375>(8799) the stones <68> of Ramah <7414>, and the timber <6086> thereof, wherewith Baasha <1201> was building <1129>(8804); and he built <1129>(8799) therewith Geba <1387> and Mizpah <4709>.
7. And at that time <6256> Hanani <2607> the seer <7200>(8802) came <935>(8804) to Asa <609> king <4428> of Judah <3063>, and said <559>(8799) unto him, Because thou hast relied <8172>(8736) on the king <4428> of Syria <758>, and not relied <8172>(8738) on the LORD <3068> thy God <430>, therefore is the host <2428> of the king <4428> of Syria <758> escaped <4422>(8738) out of thine hand <3027>.
8. Were not the Ethiopians <3569> and the Lubims <3864> a huge <7230> host <2428>, with very <3966> many <7235>(8687) chariots <7393> and horsemen <6571>? yet, because thou didst rely <8172>(8736) on the LORD <3068>, he delivered <5414>(8804) them into thine hand <3027>.
9. For the eyes <5869> of the LORD <3068> run to and fro <7751>(8789) throughout the whole earth <776>, to shew himself strong <2388>(8692) in the behalf of them whose heart <3824> is perfect <8003> toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly <5528>(8738): therefore from henceforth <6258> thou shalt have <3426> wars <4421>.
10. Then Asa <609> was wroth <3707>(8799) with the seer <7200>(8802), and put <5414>(8799) him in a prison <4115> house <1004>; for he was in a rage <2197> with him because of this thing. And Asa <609> oppressed <7533>(8762) some of the people <5971> the same time <6256>.
11. And, behold, the acts <1697> of Asa <609>, first <7223> and last <314>, lo, they are written <3789>(8803) in the book <5612> of the kings <4428> of Judah <3063> and Israel <3478>.
12. And Asa <609> in the thirty <7970> and ninth <8672> year <8141> of his reign <4438> was diseased <2456>(8799) in his feet <7272>, until his disease <2483> was exceeding <4605> great: yet in his disease <2483> he sought <1875>(8804) not to the LORD <3068>, but to the physicians <7495>(8802).
13. And Asa <609> slept <7901>(8799) with his fathers <1>, and died <4191>(8799) in the one <259> and fortieth <705> year <8141> of his reign <4427>(8800).
14. And they buried <6912>(8799) him in his own sepulchres <6913>, which he had made <3738>(8804) for himself in the city <5892> of David <1732>, and laid <7901>(8686) him in the bed <4904> which was filled <4390>(8765) with sweet odours <1314> and divers kinds <2177> of spices prepared <7543>(8794) by the apothecaries <4842>' art <4639>: and they made <8313>(8799) a very <3966> great <1419> burning <8316> for him.
1. And Jehoshaphat <3092> his son <1121> reigned <4427>(8799) in his stead, and strengthened <2388>(8691) himself against Israel <3478>.
2. And he placed <5414>(8799) forces <2428> in all the fenced <1219>(8803) cities <5892> of Judah <3063>, and set <5414>(8799) garrisons <5333> in the land <776> of Judah <3063>, and in the cities <5892> of Ephraim <669>, which Asa <609> his father <1> had taken <3920>(8804).
3. And the LORD <3068> was with Jehoshaphat <3092>, because he walked <1980>(8804) in the first <7223> ways <1870> of his father <1> David <1732>, and sought <1875>(8804) not unto Baalim <1168>;
4. But sought <1875>(8804) to the LORD God <430> of his father <1>, and walked <1980>(8804) in his commandments <4687>, and not after the doings <4639> of Israel <3478>.
5. Therefore the LORD <3068> stablished <3559>(8686) the kingdom <4467> in his hand <3027>; and all Judah <3063> brought <5414>(8799) to Jehoshaphat <3092> presents <4503>; and he had riches <6239> and honour <3519> in abundance <7230>.
6. And his heart <3820> was lifted up <1361>(8799) in the ways <1870> of the LORD <3068>: moreover he took away <5493>(8689) the high places <1116> and groves <842> out of Judah <3063>.
7. Also in the third <7969> year <8141> of his reign <4427>(8800) he sent <7971>(8804) to his princes <8269>, even to Benhail <1134>, and to Obadiah <5662>, and to Zechariah <2148>, and to Nethaneel <5417>, and to Michaiah <4322>, to teach <3925>(8763) in the cities <5892> of Judah <3063>.
8. And with them he sent Levites <3881>, even Shemaiah <8098>, and Nethaniah <5418>, and Zebadiah <2069>, and Asahel <6214>, and Shemiramoth <8070>, and Jehonathan <3083>, and Adonijah <138>, and Tobijah <2900>, and Tobadonijah <2899>, Levites <3881>; and with them Elishama <476> and Jehoram <3088>, priests <3548>.
9. And they taught <3925>(8762) in Judah <3063>, and had the book <5612> of the law <8451> of the LORD <3068> with them, and went about <5437>(8799) throughout all the cities <5892> of Judah <3063>, and taught <3925>(8762) the people <5971>.
10. And the fear <6343> of the LORD <3068> fell upon all the kingdoms <4467> of the lands <776> that were round about <5439> Judah <3063>, so that they made no war <3898>(8738) against Jehoshaphat <3092>.
11. Also some of the Philistines <6430> brought <935>(8688) Jehoshaphat <3092> presents <4503>, and tribute <4853> silver <3701>; and the Arabians <6163> brought <935>(8688) him flocks <6629>, seven <7651> thousand <505> and seven <7651> hundred <3967> rams <352>, and seven <7651> thousand <505> and seven <7651> hundred <3967> he goats <8495>.
12. And Jehoshaphat <3092> waxed <1980>(8802) great <1432> exceedingly <4605>; and he built <1129>(8799) in Judah <3063> castles <1003>, and cities <5892> of store <4543>.
13. And he had much <7227> business <4399> in the cities <5892> of Judah <3063>: and the men <582> of war <4421>, mighty men <1368> of valour <2428>, were in Jerusalem <3389>.
14. And these are the numbers <6486> of them according to the house <1004> of their fathers <1>: Of Judah <3063>, the captains <8269> of thousands <505>; Adnah <5734> the chief <8269>, and with him mighty men <1368> of valour <2428> three <7969> hundred <3967> thousand <505>.
15. And next <3027> to him was Jehohanan <3076> the captain <8269>, and with him two hundred <3967> and fourscore <8084> thousand <505>.
16. And next <3027> him was Amasiah <6007> the son <1121> of Zichri <2147>, who willingly offered <5068>(8693) himself unto the LORD <3068>; and with him two hundred <3967> thousand <505> mighty men <1368> of valour <2428>.
17. And of Benjamin <1144>; Eliada <450> a mighty man <1368> of valour <2428>, and with him armed men <5401>(8802) with bow <7198> and shield <4043> two hundred <3967> thousand <505>.
18. And next <3027> him was Jehozabad <3075>, and with him an hundred <3967> and fourscore <8084> thousand <505> ready prepared <2502>(8803) for the war <6635>.
19. These waited <8334>(8764) on the king <4428>, beside those whom the king <4428> put <5414>(8804) in the fenced <4013> cities <5892> throughout all Judah <3063>.
Notes that are not verse specific
If nothing else, this chapter shows us the way that Israel are very much still part of God's purpose in the time of the end.

34. At the west <3220> side <6285> four <702> thousand <505> and five <2568> hundred <3967>, with their three <7969> gates <8179>; one <259> gate <8179> of Gad <1410>, one <259> gate <8179> of Asher <836>, one <259> gate <8179> of Naphtali <5321>.
35. It was round about <5439> eighteen <8083> <6240> thousand <505> measures: and the name <8034> of the city <5892> from that day <3117> shall be, The LORD is there <3074>.
Notes that are not verse specific
One of the strongest themes that comes out of this prayer is the message of unity - God and Jesus are one. Jesus prays that his disciples will be one, and he prays that all believers will be one just as he an his father are one.
As believers, though, we are all different. We are as different as they come, and as humans we can be guaranteed to have serious differences of personality and ideas that throw us apart. So how can we be one? There is only one way and it comes from the fact that we have been grafted in to the family of God. The way I see it is that we are like the spokes on a wheel. God is at the center of our lives and we all revolve around him. Each spoke is different because it points in a different direction - but each spoke is also united by the fact that they all revolve around the center - God. Like the spokes of a wheel, we move around God in united vision and purpose. But if the center of our life is not God we will fall from the wheel of oneness and revolve around something else to travel in the wrong direction.
Make God the center of your life and be one with God, Jesus and all the believers throughout time.

It is ironic that Barabbas (John 18:40) means "son of the father" and he, the criminal, was released in place of Jesus - the Father's Son.

1. These words <5023> spake <2980>(5656) Jesus <2424>, and <2532> lifted up <1869>(5656) his <848> eyes <3788> to <1519> heaven <3772>, and <2532> said <2036>(5627), Father <3962>, the hour <5610> is come <2064>(5754); glorify <1392>(5657) thy <4675> Son <5207>, that <2443> thy <4675> Son <5207> also <2532> may glorify <1392>(5661) thee <4571>:
2. As <2531> thou hast given <1325>(5656) him <846> power <1849> over all <3956> flesh <4561>, that <2443> he should give <1325>(5661) eternal <166> life <2222> to <3739> as many as <3956> thou hast given <1325>(5758) him <846>.
3. And <1161> this <3778> is <2076>(5748) life <2222> eternal <166>, that <2443> they might know <1097>(5725) thee <4571> the only <3441> true <228> God <2316>, and <2532> Jesus <2424> Christ <5547>, whom <3739> thou hast sent <649>(5656).
4. I <1473> have glorified <1392>(5656) thee <4571> on <1909> the earth <1093>: I have finished <5048>(5656) the work <2041> which <3739> <3739> thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427> to <2443> do <4160>(5661).
5. And <2532> now <3568>, O Father <3962>, glorify <1392>(5657) thou <4771> me <3165> with <3844> thine own self <4572> with the glory <1391> which <3739> I had <2192>(5707) with <3844> thee <4671> before <4253> the world <2889> was <1511>(5750).
6. I have manifested <5319>(5656) thy <4675> name <3686> unto the men <444> which <3739> thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427> out of <1537> the world <2889>: thine <4674> they were <2258>(5713), and <2532> thou gavest <1325>(5758) them <846> me <1698>; and <2532> they have kept <5083>(5758) thy <4675> word <3056>.
7. Now <3568> they have known <1097>(5758) that <3754> all things <3956> whatsoever <3745> thou hast given <1325>(5758) me <3427> are <2076>(5748) of <3844> thee <4675>.
8. For <3754> I have given <1325>(5758) unto them <846> the words <4487> which <3739> thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427>; and <2532> they have received <2983>(5627) them, and <2532> have known <1097>(5627) surely <230> that <3754> I came out <1831>(5627) from <3844> thee <4675>, and <2532> they have believed <4100>(5656) that <3754> thou <4771> didst send <649>(5656) me <3165>.
9. I <1473> pray <2065>(5719) for <4012> them <846>: I pray <2065>(5719) not <3756> for <4012> the world <2889>, but <235> for <4012> them which <3739> thou hast given <1325>(5758) me <3427>; for <3754> they are <1526>(5748) thine <4674>.
10. And <2532> all <3956> mine <1699> are <2076>(5748) thine <4674>, and <2532> thine <4674> are mine <1699>; and <2532> I am glorified <1392>(5769) in <1722> them <846>.
11. And <2532> now <3765> <0> I am <1510>(5748) no more <2089> <3765> in <1722> the world <2889>, but <2532> these <3778> are <1526>(5748) in <1722> the world <2889>, and <2532> I <1473> come <2064>(5736) to <4314> thee <4571>. Holy <40> Father <3962>, keep <5083>(5657) through <1722> thine own <4675> name <3686> those <846> whom <3739> thou hast given <1325>(5758) me <3427>, that <2443> they may be <5600>(5753) one <1520>, as <2531> we <2249> are.
12. While <3753> I was <2252>(5713) with <3326> them <846> in <1722> the world <2889>, I <1473> kept <5083>(5707) them <846> in <1722> thy <4675> name <3686>: those <846> that thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427> I have kept <5442>(5656), and <2532> none <3762> of <1537> them <846> is lost <622>(5639), but <1508> the son <5207> of perdition <684>; that <2443> the scripture <1124> might be fulfilled <4137>(5686).
13. And <1161> now <3568> come I <2064>(5736) to <4314> thee <4571>; and <2532> these things <5023> I speak <2980>(5719) in <1722> the world <2889>, that <2443> they might have <2192>(5725) my <1699> joy <5479> fulfilled <4137>(5772) in <1722> themselves <848>.
14. I <1473> have given <1325>(5758) them <846> thy <4675> word <3056>; and <2532> the world <2889> hath hated <3404>(5656) them <846>, because <3754> they are <1526>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> the world <2889>, even as <2531> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> the world <2889>.
15. I pray <2065>(5719) not <3756> that <2443> thou shouldest take <142>(5661) them <846> out of <1537> the world <2889>, but <235> that <2443> thou shouldest keep <5083>(5661) them <846> from <1537> the evil <4190>.
16. They are <1526>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> the world <2889>, even as <2531> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> the world <2889>.
17. Sanctify <37>(5657) them <846> through <1722> thy <4675> truth <225>: thy <4674> word <3056> is <2076>(5748) truth <225>.
18. As <2531> thou hast sent <649>(5656) me <1691> into <1519> the world <2889>, even so <2504> <0> have <649> <0> I also <2504> sent <649>(5656) them <846> into <1519> the world <2889>.
19. And <2532> for <5228> <0> their <846> sakes <5228> I <1473> sanctify <37>(5719) myself <1683>, that <2443> they <846> also <2532> might <5600>(5753) be sanctified <37>(5772) through <1722> the truth <225>.
20. Neither <1161> <3756> pray I <2065>(5719) for <4012> these <5130> alone <3440>, but <235> for <4012> them also <2532> which shall believe <4100>(5694) on <1519> me <1691> through <1223> their <846> word <3056>;
21. That <2443> they all <3956> may be <5600>(5753) one <1520>; as <2531> thou <4771>, Father <3962>, art in <1722> me <1698>, and I <2504> in <1722> thee <4671>, that <2443> they <846> also <2532> may be <5600>(5753) one <1520> in <1722> us <2254>: that <2443> the world <2889> may believe <4100>(5661) that <3754> thou <4771> hast sent <649>(5656) me <3165>.
22. And <2532> the glory <1391> which <3739> thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427> I <1473> have given <1325>(5758) them <846>; that <2443> they may be <5600>(5753) one <1520>, even as <2531> we <2249> are <2070>(5748) one <1520>:
23. I <1473> in <1722> them <846>, and <2532> thou <4771> in <1722> me <1698>, that <2443> they may be <5600>(5753) made perfect <5048>(5772) in <1519> one <1520>; and <2532> that <2443> the world <2889> may know <1097>(5725) that <3754> thou <4771> hast sent <649>(5656) me <3165>, and <2532> hast loved <25>(5656) them <846>, as <2531> thou hast loved <25>(5656) me <1691>.
24. Father <3962>, I will <2309>(5719) that <2443> they also <2548>, whom <3739> thou hast given <1325>(5758) me <3427>, be <5600>(5753) with <3326> me <1700> where <3699> I <1473> am <1510>(5748); that <2443> they may behold <2334>(5725) my <1699> glory <1391>, which <3739> thou hast given <1325>(5656) me <3427>: for <3754> thou lovedst <25>(5656) me <3165> before <4253> the foundation <2602> of the world <2889>.
25. <2532> O righteous <1342> Father <3962>, the world <2889> hath <1097> <0> not <3756> known <1097>(5627) thee <4571>: but <1161> I <1473> have known <1097>(5627) thee <4571>, and <2532> these <3778> have known <1097>(5627) that <3754> thou <4771> hast sent <649>(5656) me <3165>.
26. And <2532> I have declared <1107>(5656) unto them <846> thy <4675> name <3686>, and <2532> will declare <1107>(5692) it: that <2443> the love <26> wherewith <3739> thou hast loved <25>(5656) me <3165> may be <5600>(5753) in <1722> them <846>, and I <2504> in <1722> them <846>.
1. When Jesus <2424> had spoken <2036>(5631) these words <5023>, he went forth <1831>(5627) with <4862> his <848> disciples <3101> over <4008> the brook <5493> Cedron <2748>, where <3699> was <2258>(5713) a garden <2779>, into <1519> the which <3739> he <846> entered <1525>(5627), and <2532> his <846> disciples <3101>.
2. And <1161> Judas <2455> also <2532>, which <3588> betrayed <3860>(5723) him <846>, knew <1492>(5715) the place <5117>: for <3754> Jesus <2424> ofttimes <4178> resorted <4863>(5681) thither <1563> with <3326> his <848> disciples <3101>.
3. Judas <2455> then <3767>, having received <2983>(5631) a band <4686> of men and <2532> officers <5257> from <1537> the chief priests <749> and <2532> Pharisees <5330>, cometh <2064>(5736) thither <1563> with <3326> lanterns <5322> and <2532> torches <2985> and <2532> weapons <3696>.
4. Jesus <2424> therefore <3767>, knowing <1492>(5761) all things <3956> that should come <2064>(5740) upon <1909> him <846>, went forth <1831>(5631), and said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, Whom <5101> seek ye <2212>(5719)?
5. They answered <611>(5662) him <846>, Jesus <2424> of Nazareth <3480>. Jesus <2424> saith <3004>(5719) unto them <846>, I <1473> am <1510>(5748) he. And <1161> Judas <2455> also <2532>, which <3588> betrayed <3860>(5723) him <846>, stood <2476>(5715) with <3326> them <846>.
6. As soon <5613> then <3767> as he had said <2036>(5627) unto them <846>, <3754> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) he, they went <565>(5627) backward <1519> <3694>, and <2532> fell <4098>(5627) to the ground <5476>.
7. Then <3767> asked he <1905>(5656) them <846> again <3825>, Whom <5101> seek ye <2212>(5719)? And <1161> they said <2036>(5627), Jesus <2424> of Nazareth <3480>.
8. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662), I have told <2036>(5627) you <5213> that <3754> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) he: if <1487> therefore <3767> ye seek <2212>(5719) me <1691>, let <863>(5628) these <5128> go their way <5217>(5721):
9. That <2443> the saying <3056> might be fulfilled <4137>(5686), which <3739> he spake <2036>(5627), <3754> Of <1537> them <846> which <3739> thou gavest <1325>(5758) me <3427> have I <3756> lost <622>(5656) none <3762>.
10. Then <3767> Simon <4613> Peter <4074> having <2192>(5723) a sword <3162> drew <1670>(5656) it <846>, and <2532> smote <3817>(5656) the high priest's <749> servant <1401>, and <2532> cut off <609>(5656) his <846> right <1188> ear <5621>. <1161> The servant's <1401> name <3686> was <2258>(5713) Malchus <3124>.
11. Then <3767> said <2036>(5627) Jesus <2424> unto Peter <4074>, Put up <906>(5628) thy <4675> sword <3162> into <1519> the sheath <2336>: the cup <4221> which <3739> my Father <3962> hath given <1325>(5758) me <3427>, shall I <4095> <0> not <3378> drink <4095>(5632) it <846>?
12. Then <3767> the band <4686> and <2532> the captain <5506> and <2532> officers <5257> of the Jews <2453> took <4815>(5627) Jesus <2424>, and <2532> bound <1210>(5656) him <846>,
13. And <2532> led <520> <0> him <846> away <520>(5627) to <4314> Annas <452> first <4412>; for <1063> he was <2258>(5713) father in law <3995> to Caiaphas <2533>, which <3739> was <2258>(5713) the high priest <749> that same <1565> year <1763>.
14. Now <1161> Caiaphas <2533> was he <2258>(5713), which <3588> gave counsel <4823>(5660) to the Jews <2453>, that <3754> it was expedient <4851>(5719) that one <1520> man <444> should die <622>(5641) for <5228> the people <2992>.
15. And <1161> Simon <4613> Peter <4074> followed <190>(5707) Jesus <2424>, and <2532> so did another <243> disciple <3101>: <1161> that <1565> disciple <3101> was <2258>(5713) known <1110> unto the high priest <749>, and <2532> went in with <4897>(5627) Jesus <2424> into <1519> the palace <833> of the high priest <749>.
16. But <1161> Peter <4074> stood <2476>(5715) at <4314> the door <2374> without <1854>. Then <3767> went out <1831>(5627) that other <243> disciple <3101>, which <3739> was <2258>(5713) known <1110> unto the high priest <749>, and <2532> spake <2036>(5627) unto her that kept the door <2377>, and <2532> brought in <1521>(5627) Peter <4074>.
17. Then <3767> saith <3004>(5719) the damsel <3814> that kept the door <2377> unto Peter <4074>, Art <1488>(5748) not <3361> thou <4771> also <2532> one of <1537> this <5127> man's <444> disciples <3101>? He <1565> saith <3004>(5719), I am <1510>(5748) not <3756>.
18. And <1161> the servants <1401> and <2532> officers <5257> stood there <2476>(5715), who had made <4160>(5761) a fire of coals <439>; for <3754> it was <2258>(5713) cold <5592>: and <2532> they warmed themselves <2328>(5711): and <1161> Peter <4074> stood <2258>(5713) <2476>(5761) with <3326> them <846>, and <2532> warmed himself <2328>(5734).
19. The high priest <749> then <3767> asked <2065>(5656) Jesus <2424> of <4012> his <846> disciples <3101>, and <2532> of <4012> his <846> doctrine <1322>.
20. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, I <1473> spake <2980>(5656) openly <3954> to the world <2889>; I <1473> ever <3842> taught <1321>(5656) in <1722> the synagogue <4864>, and <2532> in <1722> the temple <2411>, whither <3699> the Jews <2453> always <3842> resort <4905>(5736); and <2532> in <1722> secret <2927> have I said <2980>(5656) nothing <3762>.
21. Why <5101> askest thou <1905>(5719) me <3165>? ask <1905>(5657) them which heard me <191>(5756), what <5101> I have said <2980>(5656) unto them <846>: behold <2396>, they <3778> know <1492>(5758) what I <1473> said <2036>(5627).
22. And <1161> when he had <2036> <0> thus <5023> spoken <2036>(5631), one <1520> of the officers <5257> which stood by <3936>(5761) struck <1325> <0> <4475> <0> Jesus <2424> with the palm of his hand <1325>(5656) <4475>, saying <2036>(5631), Answerest thou <611>(5736) the high priest <749> so <3779>?
23. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, If <1487> I have spoken <2980>(5656) evil <2560>, bear witness <3140>(5657) of <4012> the evil <2556>: but <1161> if <1487> well <2573>, why <5101> smitest <1194>(5719) thou me <3165>?
24. Now Annas <452> had sent <649>(5656) him <846> bound <1210>(5772) unto <4314> Caiaphas <2533> the high priest <749>.
25. And <1161> Simon <4613> Peter <4074> stood <2258>(5713) <2476>(5761) and <2532> warmed himself <2328>(5734). They said <2036>(5627) therefore <3767> unto him <846>, Art <1488>(5748) not <3361> thou <4771> also <2532> one of <1537> his <846> disciples <3101>? He <1565> denied <720>(5662) it, and <2532> said <2036>(5627), I am <1510>(5748) not <3756>.
26. One <1520> of <1537> the servants <1401> of the high priest <749>, being <5607>(5752) his kinsman <4773> whose <3739> ear <5621> Peter <4074> cut off <609>(5656), saith <3004>(5719), Did <1492> <0> not <3756> I <1473> see <1492>(5627) thee <4571> in <1722> the garden <2779> with <3326> him <846>?
27. Peter <4074> then <3767> denied <720>(5662) again <3825>: and <2532> immediately <2112> the cock <220> crew <5455>(5656).
28. Then <3767> led they <71>(5719) Jesus <2424> from <575> Caiaphas <2533> unto <1519> the hall of judgment <4232>: and <1161> it was <2258>(5713) early <4405>; and <2532> they themselves <846> went <1525>(5627) not <3756> into <1519> the judgment hall <4232>, lest <3363> they should be defiled <3392>(5686); but <235> that <2443> they might eat <5315>(5632) the passover <3957>.
29. Pilate <4091> then <3767> went out <1831>(5627) unto <4314> them <846>, and <2532> said <2036>(5627), What <5101> accusation <2724> bring ye <5342>(5719) against <2596> this <5127> man <444>?
30. They answered <611>(5662) and <2532> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, If <1508> <0> he <3778> were <2258>(5713) not <1508> a malefactor <2555>, we would <302> not <3756> have delivered <3860> <0> him <846> up <3860>(5656) unto thee <4671>.
31. Then <3767> said <2036>(5627) Pilate <4091> unto them <846>, Take <2983>(5628) ye <5210> him <846>, and <2532> judge <2919>(5657) him <846> according <2596> to your <5216> law <3551>. The Jews <2453> therefore <3767> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, It is <1832> <0> not <3756> lawful <1832>(5748) for us <2254> to put <615> <0> any man <3762> to death <615>(5658):
32. That <2443> the saying <3056> of Jesus <2424> might be fulfilled <4137>(5686), which <3739> he spake <2036>(5627), signifying <4591>(5723) what <4169> death <2288> he should <3195>(5707) die <599>(5721).
33. Then <3767> Pilate <4091> entered <1525>(5627) into <1519> the judgment hall <4232> again <3825>, and <2532> called <5455>(5656) Jesus <2424>, and <2532> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, Art <1488>(5748) thou <4771> the King <935> of the Jews <2453>?
34. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662) him <846>, Sayest <3004>(5719) thou <4771> this thing <5124> of <575> thyself <1438>, or <2228> did others <243> tell it <2036>(5627) thee <4671> of <4012> me <1700>?
35. Pilate <4091> answered <611>(5662), <3385> Am <1510>(5748) I <1473> a Jew <2453>? Thine own <4674> nation <1484> and <2532> the chief priests <749> have delivered <3860>(5656) thee <4571> unto me <1698>: what <5101> hast thou done <4160>(5656)?
36. Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662), My <1699> kingdom <932> is <2076>(5748) not <3756> of <1537> this <5127> world <2889>: if <1487> my <1699> kingdom <932> were <2258>(5713) of <1537> this <5127> world <2889>, then would <302> my <1699> servants <5257> fight <75>(5711), that <3363> <0> I should <3860> <0> not <3363> be delivered <3860>(5686) to the Jews <2453>: but <1161> now <3568> is <2076>(5748) my <1699> kingdom <932> not <3756> from hence <1782>.
37. Pilate <4091> therefore <3767> said <2036>(5627) unto him <846>, Art <1488>(5748) thou <4771> a king <935> then <3766>? Jesus <2424> answered <611>(5662), Thou <4771> sayest <3004>(5719) that <3754> I <1473> am <1510>(5748) a king <935>. To <1519> this <5124> end was <1080> <0> I <1473> born <1080>(5769), and <2532> for <1519> this <5124> cause came I <2064>(5754) into <1519> the world <2889>, that <2443> I should bear witness <3140>(5661) unto the truth <225>. Every one <3956> that is <5607>(5752) of <1537> the truth <225> heareth <191>(5719) my <3450> voice <5456>.
38. Pilate <4091> saith <3004>(5719) unto him <846>, What <5101> is <2076>(5748) truth <225>? And <2532> when he had said <2036>(5631) this <5124>, he went out <1831>(5627) again <3825> unto <4314> the Jews <2453>, and <2532> saith <3004>(5719) unto them <846>, I <1473> find <2147>(5719) in <1722> him <846> no <3762> fault <156> at all.
39. But <1161> ye <5213> have <2076>(5748) a custom <4914>, that <2443> I should release <630>(5661) unto you <5213> one <1520> at <1722> the passover <3957>: will ye <1014>(5736) therefore <3767> that I release <630>(5661) unto you <5213> the King <935> of the Jews <2453>?
40. Then <3767> cried they <2905>(5656) all <3956> again <3825>, saying <3004>(5723), Not <3361> this man <5126>, but <235> Barabbas <912>. Now <1161> Barabbas <912> was <2258>(5713) a robber <3027>.
