And he sat down, and called the twelve, and said unto them,
If any man desire to be first, the same shall be last of all, and servant of all.
All Commentaries on Mark 9:35 Go To Mark 9
Gregory of Nyssa
AD 394
Let vanity be unknown among you. Let simplicity and harmony and a guileless attitude weld the community together. Let each remind himself that he is not only subordinate to the brother at his side, but to all. If he knows this, he will truly be a disciple of Christ.
