I don't think it's allegorical, unless the the tussle in the garden was a hoax (you know, where a highpriest's servant named Malchus got his ear cut off and Jesus miraculously healed it. It may represent indecision on Jesus's part -- whether the fight it out or go quietly -- utlimately whether he was divine or not. Taken together with "Why hast thou forsaken me!" his unwillingness to repeat his full claims before Pilate, I think the willingness to fight expressed here is really critical to the meaning of Jesus's life.
