Jesus restored the ear of the high priest's servant

Luke 22:50-51

And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.

The betrayal

On the night that Jesus was betrayed by Judas Iscariot, one of his followers used a sword to cut off the ear of one of the men who had come to arrest Jesus.

When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. "Why are you sleeping?" he asked them. "Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation."

While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus asked him, "Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"

When Jesus' followers saw what was going to happen, they said, "Lord, should we strike with our swords?" And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

The Miracle

We learn in the Gospel of John, in John 18:1-14, the follower who used a sword to attack one of the men who had come to arrest Jesus was Peter, Simon Peter the Apostle.

Jesus answered, "No more of this!" And he touched the man's ear and healed him.

Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for him, "Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour-when darkness reigns."

Rather than resist arrest, or allow his followers to engage in violence, Jesus admonished them and told them to stop resisting. Jesus then performed a miracle in which he healed the injured man's ear. Then Jesus cooperated and allowed himself to be arrested

Malchus

Peter, who cut off Malchus’ ear, had a history of impulsive behavior. He loved Jesus deeply, but he sometimes let his strong emotions interfere with his judgment

Jesus reprimanded the violence, immediately dropped to his knees and miraculously healed the servant’s ear.“But Jesus answered, ‘No more of this!’ And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.”

This healing was the last miracle that Jesus performed before his crucifixion

Malchus’ experience shows us that Jesus’ love was omnipresent. He was betrayed and unfairly arrested at that very moment, yet all that He had for this high priest’s servant was love.

The Bible doesn’t mention Malchus after this, but one can imagine that his life and heart was changed after his personal encounter with Jesus
