Summary
Verse 35 again, He sat down, called the 12, and said to them, whoever wants to be first must be last of all, and servant of all. There the Scripture says, that He, that's Jesus, said to them, I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. So they're gathered to celebrate the Passover and it's at this Passover celebration that Jesus institutes communion for the first time. This is an ongoing issue with the disciples who have heard the teachings of the Lord Jesus and the Paul to serve and tohood and here at the table with the cross hours away, they're back at it again which one of them is the greatest? Verse 35 of our text, he sat down, called the 12, and said to them, whoever wants to be first, must be last of all, and servant of all. He's speaking of Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the first born of all creation, that word there, first born.
