Context of Matthew 20:17

15Can’t I do what I want with my own money? Or do you resent my generosity towards others?’ 16“In this way the last will be first, and the first will be last.” When Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem, he took the twelve apostles aside and said to them privately, 18“We’re going to Jerusalem. There the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the experts in Moses’ Teachings. They will condemn him to death 19and hand him over to foreigners. They will make fun of him, whip him, and crucify him. But on the third day he will be brought back to life.”
