50 Y uno de ellos hirió al siervo del sumo sacerdote y le cortó la oreja derecha.

Lucas 22:50 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 22:50

And one of them smote the servant of the high priest
The person that drew his sword, and performed this daring action, not waiting for an answer from Christ, was Peter, and the high priest's servant, that he smote, was Malchus; both which we learn from ( John 18:10 ) and cut off his right ear;
he aimed, no doubt, at his head, but missing his blow, took off his right ear. It is very likely, that this servant was very busy and forward to lay hold on Christ, and showed much virulence, and great malignity; and therefore Peter singled him out, and levelled his blow at him.

Lucas 22:50 In-Context

48 Pero Jesús le dijo: Judas, ¿con un beso entregas al Hijo del Hombre?

49 Y cuando los que rodeaban a Jesús vieron lo que iba a suceder, dijeron: Señor, ¿heriremos a espada?

50 Y uno de ellos hirió al siervo del sumo sacerdote y le cortó la oreja derecha.

51 Respondiendo Jesús, dijo: ¡Deteneos! Basta de esto. Y tocando la oreja al siervo, lo sanó.

52 Entonces Jesús dijo a los principales sacerdotes, a los oficiales del templo y a los ancianos que habían venido contra El: ¿Habéis salido con espadas y garrotes como contra un ladrón?
