What does Luke 22:28-30 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

Jesus balanced the need for humility and service with a promise of future reward. Though the Twelve are in view, the implication of reward for other faithful disciples is strong. Jesus evidently repeated this promise in different language from an earlier incident ( Matthew 19:28).
