“And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.”
King James Version (KJV)
14:53 #Mt 26:57|; Lu 22:54; John 18:12.
14:55 All the council sought for witness and found none - What an amazing proof of the overruling providence of God, considering both their authority, and the rewards they could offer, that no two consistent witnesses could be procured, to charge him with any gross crime. #Mt 26:59|.
14:56 Their evidences were not sufficient - The Greek words literally rendered are, Were not equal: not equal to the charge of a capital crime: it is the same word in the 59th verse.
