In one of the most intense moments leading up to Jesus’ crucifixion, as He is being arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane, a disciple reacts in violence, striking the servant of the high priest and cutting off his ear. However, instead of allowing the situation to escalate, Jesus does something remarkable—He heals the wounded man. This act of mercy, recorded in Luke 22:50-51, demonstrates Jesus’ unwavering compassion even in the face of betrayal and suffering. Today, we will explore this passage to better understand Christ’s love, His commitment to peace, and what it teaches us about responding to adversity.
And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. But Jesus responded and said, ‘Stop! No more of this.’ And He touched his ear and healed him.
