Jesus was of royal lineage. He traces the historical roots of Jesus back to King David. He writes of the miraculous birth of Jesus as well as of the obscure places of His birth, both of which were fulfillments of prophecies concerning the Messiah. Jesus was the majestic One. There has never been a king like King Jesus.
Royalty is to be served.
Yet this King did not come to be served, but He came to serve. He did not come with great ego needs, but He came to lay His life down for all humanity. He is the King who served the people. Mark, who spent much time with the apostles Peter and Paul, wrote of the servanthood of Jesus. He omits the birth and early life of Jesus in his gospel account.
