36 Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.
37 For I say to you that this which is written must still be1 accomplished in Me: a‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”  
38 So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

Luke 22:38

Here are two swords - Many of Galilee carried them when they travelled, to defend themselves against robbers and assassins, who much infested their roads. But did the apostles need to seek such defence? And he said; It is enough - I did not mean literally, that every one of you must have a sword.
