    Going back to the incident in the bible in which Simon Peter struck somebody with a sword (John 18:10) only Luke's account mentions any question being raised.

    This question was actually raised by the disciples - Luke's account states that they asked Jesus about hitting back with their swords. (Luke 22:49,50)

    In quoting the WTS attempt to explain why Peter was carrying a lethal weapon, the point I was trying to make is this:

    - That the WTS explanation is a likely story! (I'm in full agreement with james_wood's post about that one)

    I apologise if I gave the impression of supporting the WTS view. (Hell will freeze over first, before that ever happens!)

    Jack.
