    Matt.20:23 "In thy kingdom" (2 of 2)

    The solicitous mother of John and James were not asking favor in this present world but in the kingdom come which is itself nothing short of extraordinary and it shows that the mother was conscious of the glory of the word and the Son who was he Word become flesh. Like the Samaritan woman by the well she was well aware of the coming of Messiah and was well receptive to her sons having part in the kingdom building. With regards to the kingdom we shall come acoss two kingdoms one of the Son and of the Father.

    St Paul refers to the resurrection from the dead which comes in a series as with the baptism of fire. The refiners fire purifying the sons of Levi already occurred when Ihe Imperial Rome destroyed Jerusalem in AD70; likewise purging the house of God by fire 'as gold and silver, that they may offer unto the Lord an offering in righteousness",(Mal.3;3;1 Pe.4:17) is yet to occur. It is to which St Paul refers, "and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is."(1 Co.3:13-15)

    "And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all." This shall occur after the last enemy death has been overcome. (1 Co.15:23-28) Obedience of the Son is in fulfilling the divine Will of the Father so he submits his own glory and honor to the Father, 'that he ay be all in all.'This shall explain the reply Jesus gave the mother of Zebedee's children.
