Contextual Overview

21 Jesus said, "But here on this table is the hand of the one who will hand me over to my enemies. 22 The Son of Man will do what God has planned. But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed." 23 Then the apostles asked each other, "Which one of us would do that?" 24 Later, the apostles began to argue about which one of them was the most important. 25 But Jesus said to them, "The kings of the world rule over their people, and those who have authority over others want to be called ‘the great providers for the people.' 26 But you must not be like that. The one with the most authority among you should act as if he is the least important. The one who leads should be like one who serves. 27 Who is more important: the one serving or the one sitting at the table being served? Everyone thinks it's the one being served, right? But I have been with you as the one who serves. 28 "You men have stayed with me through many struggles. 29 So I give you authority to rule with me in the kingdom the Father has given me. 30 You will eat and drink at my table in that kingdom. You will sit on thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And they began to inquire among themselves,.... Two days before, at the supper in Bethany, when the same thing was hinted to them, they looked at one another, John 13:22 as persons in the utmost surprise and consternation, not being able, for a while, either to speak to Christ, or one another; but now they inquired among themselves, and of Christ likewise, Matthew 26:21

which of them it was that should do this thing; so barbarous, shocking, and horrible.
