Biblical Riddle

[ChrisC]

I was told this years ago. Maybe it's been posted repeatedly or maybe you haven't heard it before.

Which Biblical character could rightly say this:

"Before I was a king, he was in subjection to me. Now I am a king, I am in subjection to him."

Please don't post the answer for a couple of days. Unless it's already widely known.

One brother have the answer as Mary.

But I am not sure of it.

There is already a topic about these.

I don't know the answer, so it is not well known (to me).

of course, it's Mary

Wow, very clever riddle.  Never even occurred to me it could be a woman.  Wonder what the ratio of men is to women of the 144,000?  Might be interesting to find out someday.

 

Also, is it reasonable to believe that the prostitute who washed Jesus' feet with her tears and dried them with her feet is also in good probability one of the 144,000 now?  It's obvious she had faith he was the Christ or she wouldn't of done what she did, all she would have to do from that point is live longer than Jesus and be faithful to receive that reward, correct?
