| rdfs:comment | - Annas was the high priest in Jerusalem from 6–15 AD, and even after being deposed from the position, he maintained a lot of influence through his sons and his son-in-law Caiaphas who was appointed high priest in 18 AD by Roman procurator Valerius Gratus. In the time of Christ's ministry, both Annas and Caiaphas are referred to as high priest and each played a role in the trial of Jesus. Jesus was first taken to Annas during the trial, who then sent Jesus to Caiaphas. Later, soon after Christ's Ascension, the apostles Peter and John were arrested and taken before both Annas and Caiaphas. Caiaphas is mentioned in each of the three Bible passages that mention Annas, a possible indication that the two ruled together or shared power.
- Annas officially served as High Priest for ten years (6–15 AD), when at the age of 36 he was deposed by the procurator Gratus 'for imposing and executing capital sentences which had been forbidden by the imperial government.'. Yet while having been officially removed from office, he remained as one of the nations most influential political & social individuals, aided greatly by the use of his five sons and his son-in-law as puppet High Priests till his assassination in 66 AD for advocating peace with Rome.
