The opposite of lowliest.

An example of God choosing the weakest and lowliest can be seen in the story of David from the Bible. David, as a young shepherd boy, was chosen by God to defeat the giant Goliath and eventually became a great king of Israel, showing that God often uses the humble and unlikely to accomplish great things.

The lowliest position on a cattle drive is the person riding drag. Drag is a position requiring little skill. He's at the back of the heard and lives in the dust stirred up by the cattle.

It tells us that He was humble enough to have a very lowly birth and be laid in a manger. He was a heavenly king, but chose to live on earth amongst the lowliest inhabitants rather that the rich and famous exclusively.
