Matthew 26:55 in Context — Matthew 26

53 Ou, por acaso, pensas tu que eu não posso agora orar ao meu Pai, e ele me daria mais de doze legiões de anjos?

54 Como, pois, se cumpririam as Escrituras [que dizem] que assim tem que ser feito?

55 Naquela hora Jesus disse às multidões: Como a um ladrão saístes com espadas e bastões para me prender? Todo dia eu me sentava convosco, ensinando no templo, e não me prendestes.

56 Porém tudo isto aconteceu para que as Escrituras dos profetas se cumpram.Então todos os discípulos o abandonaram, e fugiram.

57 Os que prenderam Jesus o trouxeram [à casa] de Caifás, o sumo sacerdote, onde os escribas e os anciãos estavam reunidos.
