The context of Matt 20 is the question Peter is asking in 19:27, “We have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?” The parable of vineyard workers shows us the principle in the Kingdom is God’s kindness. It is not working more and paying more. In fact, our election is already based on God’s kindness not our merit.
Another principle in God’s Kingdom is shown in the request of James and John. Our greatness is not based on power and pride, it is based on our humility and service.
