46A dispute arose among them: which of them was the greatest?Who is the Greatest? Lk.9.46-48 (Capernaum) | Mt.18.1-5 | Mk.9.33-37Εἰσῆλθεν δὲ διαλογισμὸς ἐν αὐτοῖς, τὸ τίς ἂν εἰη μείζων αὐτῶν.
47Jesus knew what was passing in their minds, so he took a child by the hand and stood him at his side, ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς εἰδὼς τὸν διαλογισμὸν τῆς καρδίας αὐτῶν ἐπιλαβόμενος παιδίον ἐστησεν αὐτὸ παρ' ἑαυτῷ,
48and said, 'Whoever receives this child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me receives the One who sent me. For the least among you all-he is the greatest.'
 καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, Ὃς ἐὰν δέξηται τοῦτο τὸ παιδίον ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου ἐμὲ δέχεται, καὶ ὃς ἂν ἐμὲ δέξηται δέχεται τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με· ὁ γὰρ μικρότερος ἐν πᾶσιν ὑμ ῖν ὑπάρχων οὗτός ἐστιν μέγας.
