"And when the ten heard it, they were greatly displeased with the two brothers." v.24
Read chapter 20.
Some commentaries say that theses other brothers are more jealous or mad that these two brothers asked first. How often do brothers and sisters in Christ seem to compete more with each other than cheer for theM
This whole chapter seems to talk of the prideful competition among people but Jesus continues to tell them to humble themselves in that the "last shall be first and the first last" and " he how is greatest among you must become slave." How has competition between you and another deliver hurt you or someone else? How has it taken the focus off Jesus and focus on ourselves?
