rehend me? (49)Daily was I with
you in the temple teaching, and ye laid no hold upon me: but _this is
done_ that the scriptures might be fulfilled.

(50)Then they all deserting him, fled. (51)And a certain youth followed
him, having a linen cloth wrapped round his naked body; and the young
men laid hold of him; (52)and leaving the linen cloth behind, he fled
naked from them.

(53)And they led Jesus unto the high-priest; and with him were
assembled all the chief priests, and the elders, and the scribes.
(54)And Peter followed him at a distance, until he came into the palace
of the high-priest: and was seated with the servants, and warming
himself at the fire.

(55)Then the chief priests, and the whole sanhedrim, sought for witness

(66)And as Peter was in the hall, at the lower end, there came to him
one of the high-priest's maid-servants: (67)and seeing Peter warming
