but He said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority are called benefactors. But ye shall not do so: but let the greatest among you be as the younger; and he that presides as he that serveth. For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am among you as one that serveth. Ye have continued with me in my temptations;

saying, "I will declare thy name unto my brethren, in the midst of the congregation will I praise Thee." And again, "I will trust in Him:" and again, "Behold, I, and the children which God hath given me."

Whence it behoved Him to be made in all things like unto his brethren, that He might be a merciful and faithful high-priest in the things concerning God, to make atonement for the sins of the people: for as He himself hath suffered, in being tempted, He is able to succour those that are tempted.
