16But Peter was kept outside at the door. Then this other disciple, who was a friend of the high priest, came out and had a word with the girl who kept the door, and took Peter in.
17Then the girl who was the door-keeper said to Peter, Are you not one of this man's disciples? In answer he said, I am not.
18Now the servants and the police had made a fire of coals because it was cold; they were warming themselves in front of it and Peter was there with them, warming himself.
19Then the high priest put questions to Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.
20Jesus made answer, I said things openly to the world at all times; I have given my teaching in the Synagogues and in the Temple to which all the Jews come; and I have said nothing secretly.
21Why are you questioning me? put questions to my hearers about what I have said to them: they have knowledge of what I said.
22When he said this, one of the police by his side gave him a blow with his open hand, saying, Do you give such an answer to the high priest?
