Bible Question: Why did christ wash the Deciples feet? What does it sybolise? |
Bible Answer: Ashes, Jesus Himself gives the answer to your question in John 13:15. But the whole passage is best looked at in context of all of John 13 along with Luke 22 as seen below. Both scenes take place at the Last Supper. Luke 22:24: A dispute also arose among them, which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. 25: And he said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and those in authority over them are called benefactors. 26: But not so with you; rather let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. 27: For which is the greater, one who sits at table, or one who serves? Is it not the one who sits at table? But I am among you as one who serves. John13:12: When he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, and resumed his place, 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, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. 15: For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you. 16: Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17: If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 34: A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35: By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."
