Matthew 19:30 (2024) – But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first. [cf. Matt. 19:30 – But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first. Matt. 20:16 – So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. Mark 10:31 – But many that are first shall be last; and the last first. Luke 13:30 – And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last. Compare Matt. 5:17-19 – Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven. Matt. 21:28-31 – But what think ye? A certain man had two sons; and he came to the first, and said, Son, go work to day in my vineyard. He answered and said, I will not: but afterward he repented, and went. And he came to the second, and said likewise. And he answered and said, I go, sir: and went not. Whether of them twain did the will of his father? They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you.]
