'Little Child' in the Bible

He took a little child, and set him in the midst of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them,

They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.

But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don't forbid them, for the Kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive the Kingdom of God like a little child, he will in no way enter into it."
