a start

The enigmatic expression "the last shall be first, and the first shall be last" is repeatedly attributed to [[Jesus]] in the [[New Testament]]. (Matthew 19:30; 20:16; Mark 10:31; and Luke 13:30)

What is meant by it?

It suggests that [[group theory]] is a more accurate way of viewing things than by pecking order or jealousy. All have equal opportunities for good regardless of their standing in life.

"[[Salvation]] or [[eternal life]] is not earned by one’s status in this life."<ref>https://www.neverthirsty.org/bible-qa/qa-archives/question/what-is-the-meaning-of-last-shall-be-first-and-the-first-last/</ref>
