Matthew 20:24-27

20:24 Now when the other ten heard this, they were angry with the two brothers. 20:25 But Jesus called them and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in high positions use their authority over them. 20:26 It must not be this way among you! Instead whoever wants to be great among you must be your servant, 20:27 and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave


tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the transition to a new topic.

tn Grk “the ten.”

tn The word “this” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied. Direct objects were often omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

tn See the note on the word “slave” in 8:9.
