'Little Child' in the Bible

Then He took a little child and had him stand in the midst of them; then He took him in His arms, and said to them,

"Whoever, as a disciple of mine, welcomes one little child like this, welcomes me, and whoever welcomes me, welcomes not merely me but Him who sent me."

And people were bringing little children to Him for Him to touch them, but the disciples reproved them for it.

When Jesus saw it, He was indignant, and said to them, "Let the little children come to me, and stop keeping them from it, for to such as these the kingdom of God belongs.

I solemnly say to you, whoever does not accept the kingdom of God as a little child does, will never get into it at all."

Then He took the little children into His arms, and as He laid His hands upon them one by one, He tenderly blessed them.
