“Those around Jesus saw what was about to happen and said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”
Luke 22:49 (BSB)
Context Reading
47While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him. 48But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49Those around Jesus saw what was about to happen and said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?” 50And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. 51But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.
