Contextual Overview
32 Now they were in the way, going up unto Jerusalem, and Jesus was going on before them, - and they were in amazement; and, they who followed, were in fear. And, taking unto himself, again, the twelve, he began to be saying unto them, as to the things about to befall him - 33 Lo! we are going up unto Jerusalem; and, the Son of Man, will be delivered up, unto the Chief-priests and the Scribes, - and they will condemn him to death, and deliver him up unto the nations; 34 And they will mock him, and spit upon him, and scourge him, and, slay; - and, after three days, will he, arise. 35 And there come near unto him, James and John, the twosons of Zebedee, - saying unto him - Teacher! we desire, that, whatsoever we shall ask thee, thou wilt do for us. 36 But, he, said unto them - What desire ye, I should do for you? 37 And, they, said unto him - Grant us, that, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left, we may sit, in thy glory. 38 But, Jesus, said unto them - Ye know not what ye are asking: Are ye able to drink the cup that, I, am to drink? or to be immersed, with the immersion wherewith, I, am to be immersed? 39 And, they, said unto him - We are able. And, Jesus, said unto them - The cup which, I, am to drink, ye shall drink, and, with the immersion wherewith, I, am to be immersed, shall ye be immersed; 40 But, to sit on my right hand and on my left, is not mine to give, except unto them for whom it hath been prepared. 41 And the ten, hearing, began to be sorely displeased, concerning James and John.

Reciprocal: 2 Chronicles 1:7 - Ask Matthew 20:21 - What
Gill's Notes on the Bible
And he said unto them,.... And also to their mother, and to them by her, what
would ye that I should do for you? Christ insists upon their telling him the particular thing they wanted to have done for them, before he would give them any promise, though he knew very well what it was they were desirous of.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
See the notes at Matthew 20:20-28.
Mark 10:35
And James and John ...came unto him - They did this through the instrumentality of their mother. They did not come in “person,” but they got their mother to make the request for them. Compare the notes at Matthew 20:20.
