Is it true that shortly before his arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane Jesus told his disciples to buy swords? Was He warning them to be ready to defend themselves or preparing them for an armed assault against Rome? There may be another way to interpret this command found in Luke’s Gospel.
In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus <a href="https://www.bible.com/bible/59/LUK.22.ESV">reminded His disciples</a> that, in the past, when He sent them out on missions without any provisions, all their needs were supplied. “But now,” He said, “let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.”
