Matthew 26:55 in Context — Matthew 26
53 Penses-tu que je ne puisse pas invoquer mon Père, qui me donnerait à l’instant plus de douze légions d’anges?
54 Comment donc s’accompliraient lesÉcritures, d’après lesquelles il doit en être ainsi?
55 En ce moment, Jésus dit à la foule: Vous êtes venus, comme après un brigand, avec des épées et des bâtons, pour vous emparer de moi. J’étais tous les jours assis parmi vous, enseignant dans le temple, et vous ne m’avez pas saisi.
56 Mais tout cela est arrivé afin que les écrits des prophètes fussent accomplis. Alors tous les disciples l’abandonnèrent, et prirent la fuite.
57 Ceux qui avaient saisi Jésus l’emmenèrent chez le souverain sacrificateur Caïphe, où les scribes et les anciens étaient assemblés.
