Luke 22:24-30

The Passover Betrayal, the New Covenant Meal, and the Suffering Servant King

The leaders plot, Judas betrays, Jesus prepares and interprets the Passover as the new covenant in his blood, teaches servant greatness, warns and prays for Peter, submits to the Father in agony, is betrayed and arrested, is denied by Peter, is mocked by men, and confesses before the council that he is the Son of Man and Son of God.

24 A dispute also arose among the disciples as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

25 So Jesus declared, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them call themselves benefactors.

26 But you shall not be like them. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who leads like the one who serves.

27 For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines? But I am among you as one who serves.

28 You are the ones who have stood by Me in My trials.

29 And I bestow on you a kingdom, just as My Father has bestowed one on Me,

30 so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
