Luke 22:51 - Forerunner Commentary

Luke 22:51

49 When those around Him saw what was going to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

50 And ^aone of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

51 But Jesus answered and said, “Permit even this.” And He touched his ear and healed him.

52 ^aThen Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out, as against a ^brobber, with swords and clubs?

53 When I was with you daily in the ^atemple, you did not try to seize Me. But this is your ^bhour, and the power of darkness.”

Peter Denies Jesus, and Weeps Bitterly

54 ^aHaving arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the high priest’s house. ^bBut Peter followed at a distance.

55 ^aNow when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.
