Hilary of Poitiers, on Matt 26:51

“And behold one of them that were with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, drew out his sword: and striking the servant of the high priest, cut off his ear.”

“The Lord then bids him return his sword into its sheath, because He would destroy them by no weapon of man, but by the sword of His mouth.”
