Matthew 20:20-28
The mother of Zebedee's children; Salome, the mother of James and John.Drink of the cup, &c.; share the sufferings which I must endure.
Your minister; your servant. The idea is that although, in the estimation of the world, greatness is considered as implying elevation above others, and the exercise of authority and power over them,—yet, in the kingdom of Christ, it consists in unostentatious and humble efforts to promote their happiness and welfare.
