Matthew 20:28

Made Simple — Modern English Translation

Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial
KJV ORIGINAL
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

Just like Jesus didn't come here expecting to be served hand and foot — he came to serve others and literally give up his life to buy freedom for so many people.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Jesus flipped the script: he came to serve, not to be served, and gave everything to set us free.
