Answers

  2. The Apostle Peter cut off the ear of the high priest's servant with a sword (Jn 18:10). Jesus then touched the man's ear and healed him, saying 'No more of this!' (Lk 22:51)
  3. Freed slaves who opted to stay with their masters had their ears voluntarily pierced with an awl (Ex 21:6; Dt 15:17).
