John 13:1 NASB
1 Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
Jesus’ death and resurrection were now imminent.
He had come to die in obedience to the Father’s will.
His coming to die was the ultimate act of love for all mankind.
John 13:2 NASB
2 And during supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him,
John 13:3–11 NASB
3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God, and was going back to God, 4 *rose from supper, and *laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself about. 5 Then He *poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded. 6 And so He *came to Simon Peter. He *said to Him, “Lord, do You wash my feet?” 7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I do you do not realize now, but you shall understand hereafter.” 8 Peter *said to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.” 9 Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.” 10 Jesus *said to him, “He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For He knew the one who was betraying Him; for this reason He said, “Not all of you are clean.”
John 13:12–17 NASB
12 And so when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments, and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?13 “You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.14 “If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.15 “For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.16 “Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master; neither is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.17 “If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.
