But Jesus called them unto him, and said,
You know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.
All Commentaries on Matthew 20:25 Go To Matthew 20
John Chrysostom
AD 407
For, as they were disturbed and troubled, He soothes them by His call before His word, and by drawing them near Him. For the two having separated themselves from the company of the ten, had stood nearer Him, pleading their own interests. Therefore He brings near Him these also, by this very act, and by exposing and revealing it before the rest, soothing the passion both of the one and of the other.
