Who Is the Greatest?
24 ch. 9:46;Mark 9:34A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. 25 For ver. 25-27, [Matt. 18:1-4;20:25-28;Mark 10:42-45] And he said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles 1 Pet. 5:3exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.26 ch. 9:48;[Matt. 23:11] But not so with you. Rather, let [See ver. 25above]the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.27 For who is the greater, [ch. 12:37] one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But See Matt. 20:28I am among you as the one who serves.
