Even though his disciples were at times thoughtless and quarrelsome, he patiently instructed them, showing them that he was truly humble and mild - tempered. ​ — Zechariah 9: 9; Matthew 11: 29; Luke 22: 24 - 27.
Kui ta jüngrid olidki mõnikord mõtlematud ja vaidlushimulised, õpetas ta neid kannatlikult, olles tõeliselt alandlik ja leebe.
