Context of Matthew 20:18

16So the last will be first, and the first will be last.” 17As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, He took the twelve disciples aside and said, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn Him to death 19and will deliver Him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. And on the third day He will be raised to life.” 20Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and knelt down to make a request of Him.
