Verse 24. There was also a strife among them] There are two different instances of this sort of contention or strife mentioned by the evangelists, each of which was accompanied with very different circumstances; one by Matthew, in Mt 18:1, &c., by Mark, Mr 9:33, &c.; and by Luke, in Lu 9:46, &c. That contention cannot have been the same with this which is mentioned here. The other, related in Mt 20:20, &c., and Mr 10:35, &c., must be what Luke intended here to record; and this strife or contention was occasioned by the request which Zebedee's wife made to our Lord in favour of her sons, James and John; but, then, Luke has mentioned this very much out of the order of time, it having happened while our Lord and his disciples were on their way to Jerusalem: Mt 20:17; Mr 10:32.
