183:3.6 [[The apostles]] and [[disciples]] were [[literally]] stunned by what they saw. For a [[moment]] no one moved. Then [[Jesus]], disengaging himself from the [[traitorous]] [[embrace]] of [[Judas Iscariot|Judas]], stepped up to the guards and [[soldiers]] and again asked, " Whom do you seek? " And again the captain said, " [[Jesus]] of [[Nazareth]]. " And again answered [[Jesus]]: " I have told you that I am he. If, therefore, you seek me, let these others go their way. I am ready to go with you. "[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_John#Chapter_18]

183:3.7 [[Jesus]] was ready to go back to [[Jerusalem]] with the guards, and the captain of the [[soldiers]] was altogether willing to allow the [[three]] [[apostles]] and their [[associates]] to go their way in [[peace]]. But before they were able to get started, as [[Jesus]] stood there awaiting the captain's orders, one [[Malchus]], the Syrian bodyguard of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kohen Gadol high priest], stepped up to [[Jesus]] and made ready to bind his hands behind his back, although the Roman captain had not directed that [[Jesus]] should be thus bound. When [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] and his [[associates]] saw their Master being subjected to this [[indignity]], they were no longer able to restrain themselves. [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] drew his [[sword]] and with the others rushed forward to smite [[Malchus]]. But before the [[soldiers]] could come to the [[defense]] of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kohen Gadol high priest]'s [[servant]], [[Jesus]] raised a [[forbidding]] hand to [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] and, [[speaking]] sternly, said: " [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]], put up your [[sword]]. They who take the sword shall perish by the [[sword]]. Do you not [[understand]] that it is [[the Father]]'s will that I drink this cup?

183:3.8 While Jesus thus effectively put a stop to this show of physical resistance by his followers, it was enough to arouse the fear of the captain of the guards, who now, with the help of his soldiers, laid heavy hands on Jesus and quickly bound him. And as they tied his hands with heavy cords, Jesus said to them: " Why do you come out against me with swords and with staves as if to seize a robber? I was daily with you in the temple, publicly teaching the people, and you made no effort to take me. "

183:3.9 When [[Jesus]] had been bound, the captain, [[fearing]] that the followers of [[the Master]] might attempt to [[rescue]] him, gave orders that they be seized; but the [[soldiers]] were not quick enough since, having overheard the captain's orders to [[arrest]] them, [[Jesus]]' followers fled in haste back into the ravine. All this time [[John Mark]] had remained [[secluded]] in the near-by [[Shelter|shed]]. When the guards started back to [[Jerusalem]] with [[Jesus]], [[John Mark]] attempted to steal out of the shed in order to catch up with the fleeing [[apostles]] and [[disciples]]; but just as he emerged, one of the last of the returning [[soldiers]] who had pursued the fleeing [[disciples]] was passing near and, seeing this [[young man]] in his linen coat, gave chase, almost overtaking him. In [[fact]], the [[soldier]] got near enough to [[John Mark|John]] to lay hold upon his coat, but the [[young man]] freed himself from the [[garment]], [[escaping]] naked while the [[soldier]] held the empty coat. [[John Mark]] made his way in all haste to [[David Zebedee]] on the upper trail. When he had told [[David Zebedee|David]] what had happened, they both hastened back to the tents of the [[sleeping]] [[apostles]] and informed all eight of [[the Master]]'s [[betrayal]] and [[arrest]].

183:3.10 At about the time the eight [[apostles]] were being [[awakened]], those who had fled up the ravine were returning, and they all gathered together near the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_press olive press] to [[debate]] what should be done. In the meantime, [[Simon Peter]] and [[John Zebedee]], who had hidden among the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olive_tree olive trees], had already gone on after the mob of [[soldiers]], guards, and servants, who were now [[leading]] [[Jesus]] back to [[Jerusalem]] as they would have led a desperate [[criminal]]. [[John, the Apostle|John]] followed close behind the mob, but [[Peter, the Apostle|Peter]] followed afar off. After [[John Mark]]'s [[escape]] from the clutch of the [[soldier]], he provided himself with a cloak which he found in the tent of [[Simon Peter]] and [[John Zebedee]]. He [[suspected]] the guards were going to take [[Jesus]] to the [[home]] of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanhedrin_trial_of_Jesus Annas], the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kohen Gadol high priest] [[emeritus]]; so he skirted around through the olive orchards and was there ahead of the mob, hiding near the entrance to the gate of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kohen Gadol high priest]'s [[palace]].
