very improbable that tbe disciple wbould ask'J re us if be should Muite with the sword , and then , if Jesus said ,- "No , you shall not ; you roust tot ; Ifoibid it , " it is very unlikely that disciple would do ic . He asked Christ ; Christ is net * aid to have forbiddn , acd the infer * nee is that be commanded it ; and Peter accordingly did unite -with the sword , and cut off the ear of cae of the Bften that was apprehending Christ . Now , what was Christ ' s acswer ? Did he reprove Peter ? No ; ha did not . Did he tell feim that he had acted » ery precipitately , very rashly , wry - \ yToag r Ko , he did not . So far from reproving him , it appears to me , after reading this pastage , and the collateral Scriptuw * very carefully and very guardedly , so fax from leptoving him , it appears to
me that Christ ralhir approved of what Peter had done , for his remark wag * ' Pup up Iby sword into thy sheath ; " it has done its work ; all it had to do ; all I wuhed it to do . It is enough ; now put up thy tfword into thy sheath . Suffer thus far ; coffer ye bow thus far , as though Christ bad said ** Ya will not always be called upon to suffer thunfar ; bat row suffer thus far ; forbear . " Christ then proceeded to heal the wound ; and he added , to those who were around him , a reason why they should not further trails with the sword ; he added to console them , and ts c « mfert them , and te encourage them ajic strengthen their faith , to attach their crniideace more entirely to himself , Le added , '' Sbffur thnsfarnow , for "—and that is ihe reason ; it is do
rebuke ; it is the rea . non why they should forbear for a while ; for mvs Christ , *• all ther thatu * e the sword shall perish by the sword . " Thotsevery men that are low with staves and swords come to lay hold of we ; these very men thet will dare to draw out . the troops to tu'ionnd the ere « on Calvsry , thost ; very rs « n that bring their armed bandx against the Priace oi Peace ; for Ao » e \ erymen aie preparing the . phial ot my Father ' s vengeance . It is ? 11 right ; it will come in due time : not now . If I wanted it now I would r . sk my Farter to eend me twelve 1 gions of troops more than the chief priests can bring ; rxcre than the Scrine * Mid'WiarUees can bring ; inor « tbsn the Rom w Knipfror can command ; twelve legion * of augew '¦ ! could kav * from
