36 From the Book of John is: John 18:1-27
Jesus'
arrest and trial before Caiaphas.
1.
In verses 4-11 and 19-23 what qualifies of our Lord's character
appear in relation to (a) those who came to arrest Him, (b) His
disciples, and (c) His accusers?
2.
How did Peter's own actions contribute to his fall? Of what was he
afraid? Does fear ever prevent you from declaring your association
with Jesus Christ?
Note.
Verses 5, 6, 8. 'I am he': the thrice-repeated use of this phrase
point to its special significance. It is virtually a reiteration of
the divine name, 'I AM'. Cf. Ex. 3:14; Jn. 8:58. Note the effect of
Christ's statement on the hearers.
