Is the LAST really FIRST?

Answer 1

The last is also first as it is placed within a sequential structure comprised of a start and a finish or a first and a last.
However, the last is really first but it being first plays a secondary role to its main condition as last.

Otherwise, the last in a category or collective that is not credible or suggests corruption, than the last might show character as last, not being a corrupted first.

I would like to add what I have just learned from one of your answers.

It is called Bodhisattva in Buddhism. When the "First" made it, he said, "This is so important that I will forgo my own completion, until all have come to completion. So the first serves until the last has made it, then he enters. The first shall be last and the last shall be first!
"

Answer 4

Mark 10:31 KJV
(31) But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.

But many that are first shall be last,.... This may refer unto, or be occasioned by, either the young ruler; signifying that he, and others like him, who were superior in riches and honour, were first in this world, of the first rank and figure, should be the last in the world to come:

and the last shall be first; the apostles, who were last in this world, being poor, mean, and abject, should be the first in the other: or to the Scribes and Pharisees, who were in the chief place, and highest esteem, in the Jewish church, and yet least in the kingdom of heaven; when, on the other hand, the publicans and sinners, who were in the lowest class, and in least esteem, went first into it: or to the case of persecution, when some, who seem most forward to endure it at a distance, when it comes nearer, are most backward to it; whilst others, who were most fearful of it, and ready to shrink at the thoughts of it, most cheerfully bear it: or to the apostles themselves, one of which, who was now first, Judas, should be last; and the apostle Paul, who was last of all, as one born out of due time, should be first: or to Jews and Gentiles, intimating, that the Jews, who were first in outward privileges, would be rejected of God for their unbelief, and contempt of the Messiah; and the Gentiles, who were last called, should be first, or chief, in embracing the Messiah, professing his Gospel, and supporting his interest. This sentence is confirmed, and illustrated, by a parable, in the following chapter.
