Luke 22:24

Modern English Version

There was also rivalry among them concerning which of them was to be counted the greatest.

See the chapter Copy

A dispute arose among them as to which of them was the greatest.

But they kept silent, for on the way they had disputed among themselves who was the greatest.

Love suffers long and is kind; love envies not; love flaunts not itself and is not puffed up,

Be devoted to one another with brotherly love; prefer one another in honor,

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

They began to inquire among themselves which of them it was who would do this.
