Dispute Over Greatness

Luke 22:24-30

And there arose also a strife among them, which of them should seeme to be ye greatest.

But hee saide vnto them, The Kings of the Gentiles reigne ouer them, and they that beare rule ouer them, are called bountifull.

But yee shall not be so: but let the greatest among you be as the least: and the chiefest as he that serueth.

For who is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serueth? Is not he that sitteth at table? And I am among you as he that serueth.

And yee are they which haue continued with me in my tentations.

Therefore I appoint vnto you a kingdome, as my Father hath appointed vnto me,

That ye may eate, and drinke at my table in my kingdome, and sit on seates, and iudge the twelue tribes of Israel.
