The disciples found it difficult to understand that the Messiah that the Old Testament foretold would be betrayed, suffer, and die. Seeing Jesus only as an earthly king, they argued among themselves concerning which of them should be given status within His kingdom. Alistair Begg reminds us that despite the lack of humility on the part of the disciples, Jesus did not abandon them but showed them grace and gave them a lesson in true humility.
