Trial Before Annas Part 3

After Jesus' arrest, He was taken to Annas for questioning. Annas had been the high priest at one time and was still seen by many people as the religious authority in Jerusalem. Little did Annas realize that his trial of Jesus was fulfilling the requirement of the Passover lamb, which had to be examined by a priest before it could be sacrificed. Annas, and then Caiaphas, fulfilled that religious requirement, further qualifying Jesus, in every aspect, as God's sacrificial Lamb.
