The Apostle and Gospel author Matthew liked to moralize and
lecture via parable.  In chapter 20, he warns the Jewish leaders
that dire consequences might accompany their scorning of Jesus,
saying:

	So the last shall be first, and the first last: for
	many be called, but few chosen.

I have to agree that it is one of the wittiest things I've ever
seen on usenet, and my hat's off to Jordan.
