‏ Mark 10:41-44

10:41 ^a the ten other disciples ... were indignant: Perhaps they wanted the special places requested by James and John for themselves. All of Jesus’ disciples needed a new understanding of what leadership in God’s Kingdom means (10:42-45 ^b).
Summary for Mark 10:42-44: 10:42-44 ^c The unbelieving world (the rulers in this world) thinks that leadership means lording it over others. Just as Jesus’ role as Messiah and Son of God meant suffering and death (8:31 ^d; 9:31 ^e; 10:32-34 ^f, 45 ^g), being his follower involves serving others, not ruling over them (9:35 ^h; John 10:11 ⁱ).
