SEV Biblia, Chapter 10:45
Porque el Hijo del hombre tampoco vino para ser servido, mas para servir, y dar su vida en rescate por muchos.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 45. For even the son of man , etc..] That is, Christ himself; a name by which he frequently goes both in the Old and New Testament to the arguments before produced, Christ adds his own example, to teach his disciples humility and lowliness of mind and to check their ambitious views and desires: came not to be ministered unto : not but that he was ministered unto even by the angels of God; who ministered to him in the wilderness, after he had been tempted by Satan; and he was also ministered unto by some women out of their substance; but these show the low estate he was in to stand in need of such ministrations: here the sense is that he did not appear as an earthly prince, with a fine equipage, a large retinue and attendance, but to minister ; to be a servant, as he is in his mediatorial office and capacity: he was sent, and came as the servant of the Lord; and he ministered, in his prophetic office, the Gospel unto men; and went about in the form of a servant, doing good, ministering medicine both to the souls end bodies of men: but the great work he came about, was the work of man's redemption; which he willingly and cheerfully undertook, diligently and faithfully prosecuted, and has completely finished; to which respect is had in the next clause: and to give his life a ransom for many ; even for all the elect of God, to redeem them from sin, Satan, and the law; and secure them from the wrath of God, and eternal death; and this he has done, by laying down his life as the ransom price for them; (see Gill on Matthew 20:28).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 32-45 - Christ's going on with his undertaking for the salvation of mankind was, is, and will be, the wonder of all his disciples. Worldly honou is a glittering thing, with which the eyes of Christ's own disciple have many times been dazzled. Our care must be, that we may have wisdo and grace to know how to suffer with him; and we may trust him to provide what the degrees of our glory shall be. Christ shows them tha dominion was generally abused in the world. If Jesus would gratify all our desires, it would soon appear that we desire fame or authority, an are unwilling to taste of his cup, or to have his baptism; and shoul often be ruined by having our prayers answered. But he loves us, an will only give his people what is good for them.
