183:5.3 About this time [[John Zebedee]], remembering his [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_(form_of_address) Master]'s instructions to remain always near at hand, hurried up near [[Jesus]] as he marched along between the [[two]] captains. The commander of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_temple the temple] guards, seeing [[John, the Apostle|John]] come up alongside, said to his assistant: " Take this man and bind him. He is one of this fellow's followers. " But when the [[Roman]] captain heard this and, looking around, saw [[John, the Apostle|John]], he gave orders that the [[apostle]] should come over by him, and that no man should [[molest]] him. Then the [[Roman]] captain said to the [[Jewish]] captain: " This man is neither a [[traitor]] nor a [[coward]]. I saw him in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gethsemane the garden], and he did not draw a [[sword]] to [[resist]] us. He has the [[courage]] to come forward to be with his [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_(form_of_address) Master], and no man shall lay hands on him. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_law Roman law] allows that any [[prisoner]] may have at least one [[friend]] to stand with him before the [[judgment]] bar, and this man shall not be [[prevented]] from standing by the side of his [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_(form_of_address) Master], the [[prisoner]]. " And when [[Judas Iscariot|Judas]] heard this, he was so [[ashamed]] and [[humiliated]] that he dropped back behind the marchers, coming up to the [[palace]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annas Annas] [[alone]].

183:5.4 And this [[explains]] why [[John Zebedee]] was [[permitted]] to remain near [[Jesus]] all the way through his trying [[experiences]] this night and the next day. The [[Jews]] [[feared]] to say aught to [[John, the Apostle|John]] or to [[molest]] him in any way because he had something of the [[status]] of a [[Roman]] [[counselor]] designated to [[act]] as [[observer]] of the [[transactions]] of the [[Jewish]] [[ecclesiastical]] [[court]]. [[John, the Apostle|John]]'s position of [[privilege]] was made all the more [[secure]] when, in turning [[Jesus]] over to the captain of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_temple the temple] guards at the gate of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annas Annas]'s [[palace]], the [[Roman]], addressing his assistant, said: " Go along with this [[prisoner]] and see that these [[Jews]] do not [[kill]] him without [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilate Pilate]'s [[consent]]. Watch that they do not [[assassinate]] him, and see that his [[friend]], the [[Galilean]], is [[permitted]] to stand by and [[observe]] all that goes on. " And thus was [[John, the Apostle|John]] able to be near [[Jesus]] right on up to the [http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Paper_187 time of his death on the cross], though the other ten [[apostles]] were compelled to remain in hiding. [[John, the Apostle|John]] was [[acting]] under [[Roman]] [[protection]], and the [[Jews]] [[dared]] not [[molest]] him until after [[the Master]]'s [[death]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_john#Chapter_18]
