Mark 9:37

"Whoever welcomes one such child in my name welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me welcomes not [only] me but [also] the one who sent me."
[Here the Greek word paidion is used, which describes a small child up to school age. Jesus is in Peter's house in Capernaum, see verse 33, so it is not unlikely that it is Peter's child that Jesus brings forward to teach about humility in an illustrative way. It is interesting to note that in Aramaic, the language Jesus probably spoke, the same word is used for both children and servants. The phrase "took in his arms" describes how Jesus embraces and welcomes the child. The word is only used here and in Mark 10:16.]
