Context
75:6 For victory does not come from the east or west , or from the wilderness . 75:7 For God is the judge ! He brings one down and exalts another . 75:8 For the Lord holds in his hand a cup full of foaming wine mixed with spices, and pours it out . Surely all the wicked of the earth will slurp it up and drink it to its very last drop .” 75:9 As for me, I will continually tell what you have done; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob ! 75:10 God says, “I will bring down all the power of the wicked ; the godly will be victorious .”

  • This pericope parallels 9:30-37. Both sections deal with true greatness, and both follow predictions of Jesus' passion. This second incident shows the disciples' lack of spiritual perception and their selfishness even more th...
