Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place."

the earliest gospel says that the deciples were complete cowards who had legged it. the jesus in the above verse seems to be saying that they(deciples) will get ready for combat if he had asked them to .
compare jesus to bar kochbah
Quote:
Bar Kochba was not the messiah because he did not fulfill the
messianic requirements, requirements which nobody to this day have
fulfilled. He had the potential to be, and he was putting his money
where his mouth was (driving the Romans out of Judea and some even say
extending the size of the Temple Mount to the dimensions described in
Y'hezqél), but ultimately he fell short just as others before and
after him did
What he was, however, was a great Jewish military leader who - like
the Judges before him - attempted to throw off the subjugation of a
foreign oppressor. Which is a hell of a lot more than the GT's Yéshu
ever did. Bar Kochba fought to save Jewish lives, and to usher in
Jewish self-rule in the Jewish homeland under the one God, while
Yéshu's supposed death (a death hundreds of thousands of Jews before
and after any Yéshu received from the Romans) has caused more Jews to
be murdered than perhaps anything else in history.
