Those who came to arrest Jesus in the garden no doubt had heard accounts of His miracles. How is it, after witnessing such a miracle mere feet away, that they–and we– could so easily doubt the power of Our Lord?

And when those who were about [Jesus] saw what would follow, they said, "Lord, shall we strike with the sword?" And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. But Jesus said, "No more of this!" And He touched his ear and healed him. - Luke 22:49-51
