耶稣叫他们来对他们说、你们知道、外邦人有尊为君王的、治理他们．有大臣操权管束他们。 只是在你们中间、不是这样．你们中间、谁愿为大、就必作你们的用人． 在你们中间、谁愿为首、就必作众人的仆人。 因为人子来、并不是要受人的服事、乃是要服事人、并且要舍命、作多人的赎价。
English
But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them. But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister: And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

马可福音这段对话发生在门徒讨论地位的语境中。耶稣以服事重新解释伟大，也以自己的使命说明这条道路。 活动结束后大多数人离开了，还有桌椅和垃圾需要整理。服事让看不见的需要被回应。也可以邀请分工，使忠心不变成少数人的长期负担。 今天的一小步：邀请两个人一起完成收尾，并建议下次事先轮班。 把这段话放回原来的段落，留意说话的人、听话的人和前后文。不要把经文压成一句立即见效的处方。
English
This conversation in Mark concerns the disciples' desire for status. Jesus redefines greatness through service and illustrates the path through his own mission. After the event, most people leave while tables and rubbish remain. Service notices unseen needs. Sharing the work keeps faithfulness from becoming a lasting burden on a few. A small step today: Invite two people to help and suggest a rota before the next event. Read the passage in its surrounding section. Notice speaker, audience, and context instead of turning Scripture into an instant formula.
