Luke 22:38 Context
36Then saide hee vnto them, But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and hee that hath no sword, let him sel his garment, and buy one. 37For I say vnto you, that this that is written, must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: For the things concerning me haue an end. 38And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And hee saide vnto them, It is ynough. 39¶ And he came out, and went, as hee was wont, to the mount of Oliues, and his disciples also followed him. 40And when he was at the place, he said vnto them, Pray, that yee enter not into temptation.

Wesley's Notes for Luke 22:38
22:38 Here are two swords - Many of Galilee carried them when they travelled, to defend themselves against robbers and assassins, who much infested their roads. But did the apostles need to seek such defence? And he said; It is enough - I did not mean literally, that every one of you must have a sword.
