“Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword. For I have come to set a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and one’s enemies will be those of his household” (Mt 10:34-36).
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 875635


A spiritual sword. Good versus evil. I don't recall in any of the later scriptures (after the four gospels) of a single disciple using any sort of physical weapon.

NAB LUK 22:35

"...And the man without a sword must sell his coat and buy one."


Jesus was not at all peace lover.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 875635


This is an erroneous quotation. Luke 22:35 doesn't say that (Jesus asks if they ever lacked anything in that verse). Luke 22:36 says 'they' should get swords (not 'the man without a sword'), and Luke 22:37 says it is so that Jesus would be numbered with the transgressors (the law breakers) to fulfill a prophecy in Isaiah.

Further refutement: Luke 22:51 specifically states Jesus told them not to attack ('no more of this!'), and he never gave them the order to ever use the swords in the first place.
