John 18:24

‘Annas therefore sent him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.'

The continued emphasis on the fact that Jesus was bound must be seen as significant. God bound by man. The world was doing what it could to restrain Him, even though He has seemingly submitted Himself to their will. For a while the one whom Jesus has bound (Satan) is himself binding Jesus (Mark 3:27). This is part of His humiliation. But it is only introductory to His greater triumph. He Who will break man's bonds must Himself first be bound.

We note here confirmation of Jesus' examination before Caiaphas. But John is aware that details of that examination were well known and adds nothing further.
