John 18:2-8

2Now Judas, who was betraying Him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

3So Judas, having obtained the Roman cohort and some officers from the high priests and the Pharisees, came there with lanterns and torches and weapons.

4Then Jesus, knowing all that was about to happen to Him, went to them and asked, “Whom do you want?”

5They answered Him, “Jesus the Nazarene.” Jesus said, “I am He.” And Judas, who was betraying Him, was also standing with them.

6When Jesus said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

7Again He asked them, “Whom do you want?” And they said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”

8Jesus answered, “I told you that I am He; so if you want Me, let these men go on their way.”
