25 And Yah Shua calls them to him, and says, You know that the archs of the goyim rule over them; and they who are mega authorize over them. 26 But so be it not among you: but whoever wills to be mega among you, becomes your minister; 27 and whoever wills to be first among you, becomes your servant. 28 Exactly as the Son of humanity comes not to be ministered unto, but to minister: and to give his soul a redemption for many.

1
THE FINAL NIGHT OF YAH SHUA: THE FINAL SUPPER
Preceding the celebration of the pasach, Yah Shua, knowing his hour to depart from this cosmos to the Father is come, loving his own who are in the cosmos, he loves them to the completion/shalom. 2
YAH SHUA PURIFIES THE FEET OF THE DISCIPLES
And being supper; Diabolos having already put into the heart of Yah Hudah the urbanite the son of Shimon to betray him; 3 Yah Shua, knowing that the Father gave all into his hands and that he comes from Elohim and goes to Elohim, 4 he rises from supper and places his clothing; and takes a linen and girds himself: 5 so he pours water into a bason and begins to wash the feet of the disciples; and to squeezedry them with the linen he is girt. 6 So he comes to Shimon Petros: and Petros words to him, Adonay, you - wash my feet? 7 Yah Shua answers him, saying, What I do you know not now; but after this you know. 8 Petros words to him, You wash not my feet to the eons. Yah Shua answers him, Unless I wash you, you have no part with me. 9 Shimon Petros words to him, Adonay, not only my feet but also my hands and my head. 10 Yah Shua words to him, Whoever bathes, need not wash, except his feet, but is wholly pure: and you are pure - but indeed not all. 11 - for he knows who is to betray him; so he says, You are not all pure. 12
FOOT PURIFYING EXAMPLE
After he washes their feet, and takes his clothing and reposes again, he says to them, Know you what I did to you? 13 You voice out to me, Doctor and Adonay: and you word well; for I am. 14 So if I, your Adonay and Doctor, wash your feet; you also are indebted to wash the feet of one another: 15 for I give you an example to do exactly as I do to you. 16 Amen! Amen! I word to you, Neither is the servant greater than his adoni; nor the apostolized greater than he who sent him. 17 If you know these, blessed - whenever you do them. 18 I word not concerning you all: I know whom I chose: except to fulfill/shalam the scripture, He who eats bread with me lifts his heel against me. Psalm 41:9 19 Now I word to you ere it becomes, so, whenever it becomes, you trust that I AM. 20 Amen! Amen! I word to you, Whoever takes whomever I send, takes me; and whoever takes me, takes him who sent me. 21 Saying thus, Yah Shua is troubled in spirit, and witnesses, and says, Amen! Amen! I word to you, that one of you betrays me. 22 So the disciples look at one another, perplexed about whom he words: 23 and reposing in the bosom of Yah Shua is one of his disciples whom Yah Shua loves: 24 so Shimon Petros beckons him to ask who it is concerning whom he words. 25 Then, falling on the chest of Yah Shua, he words to him, Adonay, who is it? 26 Yah Shua answers, It is he, to whom I give a morsel when I baptize it. - and he baptizes the morsel and gives it to Yah Hudah the urbanite of Shimon. 27
SATAN ENTERS YAH HUDAH
And after the morsel, then Satan enters him: and Yah Shua words to him, What you do, do quickly. 28 And no one reposing knows why he says this to him. 29 For some think, because Yah Hudah had the bag, that Yah Shua words to him, Market what we need for the the celebration; or to give somewhat to the poor. 30 So he takes the morsel and straightway goes: and it is night. 31 So when he goes, Yah Shua words, Now the Son of humanity is glorifiedl and Elohim is glorified in him: 32 if Elohim is glorified in him, Elohim also glorifies him in himself, and straightway glorifies him. 33 Little children, yet a little I am with you. You seek me: and exactly as I say to the Yah Hudiym, Where I go, you cannot come; - I also word to you. 34
A NEW MISVAH
A new misvah I give you - to love one another; exactly as I love you, you also love one another: 35 by this everyone knows you are my disciples - whenever you have love in one another. 36 Shimon Petros words to him, Adonay, where go you? Yah Shua answers him, Where I go, you cannot follow me now - but follow me afterwards. 37 Petros words to him, Adonay, why cannot I follow you now? I place my soul for your sake. 38 Yah Shua answers him, You, place your soul for my sake? Amen! Amen! I word to you, The rooster voices not, until you utterly deny me thrice.

Philippians 2:1-30

1
HUMBLING OF SELF
So if there is any consolation in Messiah, if any consolation of love, if any communion of the Spirit, if any spleens and compassions, 2 fulfil/shalam my cheer - of the same thought, having the same love, co-souled, of one thought, 3 naught through rivalry or vainglory; but in humblemindedness esteem each other superior to self: 4 each not scoping for ones own self, but each also on those of others. 5
THE SELF-HUMBLING OF MESSIAH
Indeed have this thought in you, which is also in Messiah Yah Shua: 6 who, being in the form of Elohim, deemed it not usurpation to be equal with Elohim: 7 but voided himself and took the form of a servant and became in the likeness of humanity: 8 and being found in configuration as a human, he humbled himself and became obedient to death - even the death of the stake. 9
THE EXALTATION OF MESSIAH
So Elohim also supremely exalted him and granted him charism - a name above every name: 10 that in the name of Yah Shua every knee bows - of the heavenlies and earthly and subterranean; 11 and that every tongue avow that Yah Shua Messiah is Adonay, to the glory of Elohim the Father. Isaiah 45:22,23 12
WORKING OUT SALVATION
So my beloved, exactly as you always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my being away, work out your own salvation with awe and trembling. Ephesians 2:8-10 13 For it is Elohim who energizes in you both to will and to energize his well-approval. 14 Do all apart from murmurings and reasonings: 15 that you be blameless and unadulterated - the children of Elohim - unblemished midst a crooked and perverted generation; in whom you manifest as lights in the cosmos: 16 holding forth the word of life, to boasting to the day of Messiah, that I neither ran in vain nor labored in vain. 17 Rather, if I am libated on the sacrifice and service of your trust, I cheer and co-rejoice: 18 and for the same cause you also cheer and co-rejoice with me. 19
PAULOS SENDS TIMO THEOS AND EPAPHRODITUS
And I hope in Adonay Yah Shua to quickly send Timo Theos to you, that I also be well-souled when I know about your state: 20 for I have no one like-souled, who is genuinely concerned about your state. 21 For all seek their own - not those of Yah Shua Messiah. 22 But you know the proof of him, who, as a child with the father, he served with me in the evangelism. 23 So indeed, I hope to send him immediately, as soon as ever I see how it goes with me. 24 And I confide in Adonay that I myself also come shortly. 25 Yet I deemed it necessary to send you Epaphroditus, my brother and co-worker and co-warrior - and your apostle and minister to my need. 26 Since he yearned after you all and was distressed, because you heard he had been frail. 27 For indeed he was frail - close by death: but Elohim mercied him; and not only him, but also me, lest I have sorrow upon sorrow. 28 So I send him diligently, so that when you see him again, you cheer and that I also be ungrieving. 29 So receive him in Adonay with all cheer; and hold such honorable: 30 for, because of the work of Messiah he approached death, hazarding his soul, to fill full/shalam your lack of liturgy toward me.

Philippians 2:7

7 but voided himself and took the form of a servant and became in the likeness of humanity:

Luke 22:27

27 For which is greater - he who reposes or he who ministers? Is not indeed he who reposes? But I - I am among you as he who ministers.
