John 18:11 - Barnes' Notes

John 18:11

9 that the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, ^a“Of those whom You gave Me I have lost none.”

10 ^aThen Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant’s name was Malchus.

11 So Jesus said to Peter, “Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink ^athe cup which My Father has given Me?”

Before the High Priest

12 Then the detachment of troops and the captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound Him.

13 And ^athey led Him away to ^bAnnas first, for he was the father-in-law of ^cCaiaphas who was high priest that year.

John 18:10-11

See the notes at Matthew 26:51-52.

The servant' s name was Malchus - His name is mentioned by neither of the other evangelists, nor is it said by the other evangelists who was the disciple that gave the blow. It is probable that both Peter and the servant were alive when the other gospels were written.
