So you are admitting you have no clear way of allowing for the obvious meaning of Luke 22:36 in your interpretation?
It seems painfully obvious to me you are conflating what Jesus was telling his disciples to do in preparation to “switch gears” in light of his coming absence from them with the circumstances leading to that absence.
So you are left with a simple choice, admit your interpretation is flawed, or ignore an inconvenient verse of Holy Scripture.
So I tried to be nice, but I see it very different. The whole of scripture supports the position that we are to “turn the other cheek” to physical violence. Jesus modeled this approach when He went to the cross and this was a consistent teaching of His in the New Testament. Ephesians 6 is a clear teaching that we are engaged in a spiritual war, and our enemies are not “flesh and blood”.
If you see it different, so be it.
