The Disciples Argue About Greatness

24 aNow there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.  
25 aAnd He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’  
26 aBut not so among you; on the contrary, bhe who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

Luke 22:23

Which of them it was (to tiv ara eih ec autwn). Note the article to with the indirect question as in verses Luke 22:2, Luke 22:4. The optative eih here is changed from the present active indicative estin, though it was not always done, for see dokei in verse Luke 22:24 where the present indicative is retained. They all had their hands on the table. Whose hand was it?
