The Gospel of John tells us that Jesus' first interrogation was by Annas, who demanded to know what He had taught. Jesus suggested that Annas interrogate instead the people who had heard His preaching. In Anne Catherine's vision, many of the witnesses in fact gave correct testimony of Jesus but drew the wrong implications of his ministry.

First they led Him to Annas, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. ... The high priest then questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching. Jesus answered him, "I have spoken openly to the world; I have always taught in the synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together; I have said nothing secretly. Why do you ask Me? Ask those who have heard Me, what I said to them; they know what I said." When He had said this, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, "Is that how You answer the high priest?" Jesus answered him, "If I have spoken wrongly, bear witness to the wrong; but if I have spoken rightly, why do you strike Me?" - John 18:13, 19-23
