I read a really good article on Servant-Benefaction here:
The Servant-Benefactor as a Model of Greatness
It’s pretty illuminating for anybody wishing to understand Luke 22.
You can access it freely using “sci-hub.tw/<insert url here>”
Here’s a good line from the conclusion:
Those who aspire to “greatness”, but who are not yet called “benefactors” (v 26a), are advised to follow the example of Jesus, the servant-benefactor par excellence (v 27b), and that of those apostles who remained with Jesus throughout the Passion (v 28).
