Secondly. Jesus Christ touched Malchus his ear, and healed it. Luk. 22.51. whether it did his soul any good or not, is not said, there is no mention made of it; only Joh. 18.26. A Kinsman of Malchus challenged Peter to be one of Jesus his company. Did I not see thee in the Garden with him? and no doubt he could have told him, that it was he that cut off Malchus his ear; but because of the Miracle which Jesus did, in healing it with a touch, the High Priest (it is like) charged and they all agreed to bury it in as much silence as they could; for it was a great Conviction of their malice, that could not be mollified by such a miracle. But poor Peter was too bold (not in Courage, but Fear) in denying; which how great a stumbling it might be to him that charged him, we cannot say. But O what a ⟨p. 73⟩sad Temptation is fear? that caused Peter so rashly, and so often to deny his Lord But we are yet in the Garden, where Malchus Ear was rashly cut off by Peter, and miraculously healed by Jesus Christ.
