'Little' in the Bible
Going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John. They were in a boat repairing their nets.
and begged him urgently, saying, "My little daughter is dying. Come and lay your hands on her so that she may get well and live."
In fact, a woman whose little daughter had an unclean spirit immediately heard about him and came and fell down at his feet.
Then he took a little child and had him stand among them. He took him in his arms and told them,
"If anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him if a large millstone were hung around his neck and he were thrown into the sea.
Some people were bringing little children to Jesus to have him touch them. But the disciples rebuked those who brought them.
When Jesus saw this, he became furious and told them, "Let the little children come to me, and stop keeping them away, because the kingdom of God belongs to people like these.
I tell all of you with certainty, whoever doesn't receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it."
Going on a little farther, he fell to the ground and kept praying that if it were possible the hour might pass from him.
Again he denied it. After a little while, the people who were standing there began to say to Peter again, "Obviously you're one of them, because you are a Galilean!"
