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.
Edhe pse kishte raste kur dishepujt e tij nuk i mendonin dy herë gjërat ose grindeshin me njëri - tjetrin, ai i mësoi me durim, duke u treguar se ishte vërtet i përulur dhe me natyrë të butë. ​ — Zakaria 9: 9; Mateu 11: 29; Luka 22: 24 - 27.
