Matthew 20:1 For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.

Matthew 20:2 And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.

Matthew 20:3 And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,

Matthew 20:4 And said unto them, Go you also into the vineyard and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went to help too.

Matthew 20:5 Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour and did likewise.

Matthew 20:6 And about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle and said unto them, Why stand you here all the day idle?

Matthew 20:7 They say unto him, Because no man has hired us. He said unto them, Go you also into the vineyard and whatsoever is right that shall you receive.

Matthew 20:8 So when evening was come, the lord of the vineyard said unto his steward, Call the labourers and give them their hire beginning from the last unto the first.

Matthew 20:9 And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.

Matthew 20:10 But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more and they likewise received every man a penny.

Matthew 20:11 And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,

Matthew 20:12 Saying, These last have wrought but one hour and you have made them equal unto us which have borne the burden and heat of the day.

Matthew 20:13 But he answered one of them and said, Friend, I do you no wrong. Did not you agree with me for a penny?

Matthew 20:14 Take that which is yours is and go your way. I will give unto this last, even as unto you.

Matthew 20:15 Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?

Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first and the first last. For many be called, but few chosen.
Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first and the first last.(the 'educated' elite of the day, who were the scribes, doctors, lawyers, Sadducees and Pharisees, were so far away from their heart, their spirit's connection with the Soul, they would end up being the last, though they would have expected to be the first:.Matthew 21:31.

The disciples also had this 'me first' ego motivation:.Mark 9:33-37. They had time for learning how to be last so they could be in the first category as they were with Emmanuel mostly every day and there was much still to learn from Him. But, the simple, honest and helpful folk who were starved of education back then, but lived sincerely from their hearts, they would be first:.Isaiah 66:2. Always help them if you can:.Proverbs 31:8,9). For many be called, but few chosen.

Meaning, the Creator doesn't override anyone, doesn't force anyone and so the chosen are ones that are responsive to Christ:.2Corinthians 3:16. The disciples at first were very responsive, but soon began to compare amongst themselves who would of them would be regarded as the best:.2Corinthians 10:12. And similar were the Pharisees of Emmanuel's time who were close-minded in maintaining their own 'righteousness', which was actually unrighteous, because most of them cared only for self, knew better, yet didn't act on the good they knew and this for selfish reasons kept them away from growing spiritually:.Matthew 23rd chapter.

Matthew 20:17 And Emmanuel going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples.(Matthew 10:1-4).apart in the way and said unto them,

Matthew 20:18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes and they shall condemn him to death,

Matthew 20:19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify him and the third day he shall rise again.

Matthew 20:20 Then came to him the mother of Zebedee's children with her sons, worshipping him and desiring a certain thing of him.

Matthew 20:21,22 And he said unto her, What do you need? She said unto him, Grant that these my two sons may sit, the one on your right hand and the other on the left, in your kingdom. But Emmanuel answered and said, You know not what you ask. Are you able to drink of the cup that I shall drink of and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with? They say unto him, We are able.

Matthew 20:23 And he said unto them, You shall drink indeed of my cup and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with. But to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared of my Father.

Matthew 20:24 And when the ten heard it.(the other disciples), they were moved with indignation against the two brethren.(these were James and John:.Mark 10:35).

Matthew 20:25 But Emmanuel 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.

Matthew 20:26 But it shall not be so among you. But whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister.

Matthew 20:27 And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant.

Matthew 20:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister and to give his life a ransom.for many.

Matthew 20:29-33 And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him. And, behold, two blind men sitting by the way side, when they heard that Emmanuel passed by, cried out, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you Son of David. And the multitude rebuked them, because they should hold their peace, but they cried the more, saying, Have mercy on us, O Lord, you Son of David. And Emmanuel stood still and called them and said, What will you that I shall do unto you? They say unto him, Lord, that our eyes may be opened.

Matthew 20:34 So Emmanuel had compassion on them and touched their eyes and immediately their eyes received sight and they followed him.
