An Argument about Greatness
24 (A) The apostles got into an argument about which one of them was the greatest. 25 (B) So Jesus told them:
Foreign kings order their people around, and powerful rulers call themselves everyone's friends.[a] 26 (C) But don't be like them. The most important one of you should be like the least important, and your leader should be like a servant.

- 22.25 everyone's friends: This translates a Greek word that rulers sometimes used as a title for themselves or for special friends.
