• Those of any importance, such as the high-priest’s palace was sure to be, were usually built in the form of a quadrangle, having an interior open court. Access to the house was had by a porch or arched passage from the front, closed, as regards the street, by a heavy folding door or gate, containing in it a wicket for foot passengers, and kept by a porter. This entrance to the court would appear to be what Mark calls “the porch” (Mark 14:68). The interior court was usually open to the sky, and here it was that they “made a fire of coals; for it was cold” (John 18:18). In Luke we read that they “kindled a fire in the midst of the hall” (Luke 22:55). (“Sifted as Wheat” by W.T.P. Wolston)
• The confession of Jesus before friends is very different from confession before bloodthirsty enemies….It is blessed to learn our nothingness and worse in His presence who keeps from falling; but every saint, and especially every servant, must learn himself, if not there, in the bitter humiliation of what we are when we forget Him. (“John 18” by W. Kelly)
