n“Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but
also my hands and my head!”
Jesus said to him, “He who is bathed needs
only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.” For He knew who would
betray Him; therefore He said,
“You are not all clean.” So when He had
washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to
you? You call Me Teacher and Lord,
and you say well, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have
washed your feet, you also
ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. Most
assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent
him. If you know these things,
blessed are you if you do them.”
