Context of Mark 14:46

44Now he that delivered him up had given them a sign between them, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; seize him, and lead [him] away safely. 45And being come, straightway coming up to him, he says, Rabbi, Rabbi; and he covered him with kisses. And they laid their hands upon him and seized him. 47But a certain one of those who stood by, having drawn his sword, struck the bondman of the high priest, and took off his ear. 48And Jesus answering said to them, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and sticks to take me?
