Jump to Previous Feet Master Objected Peter Simon Sir Wash WashedJump to Next Feet Master Objected Peter Simon Sir Wash WashedJohn 13 1. Jesus washes the disciples' feet, and exhorts them to humility and charity.18. He foretells and discovers to John by a token, that Judas should betray him; 31. commands them to love one another; 36. and forewarns Peter of his denials. He came to Simon Peter This phrase marks a pivotal moment in the narrative of the Last Supper. The Greek verb "ἔρχεται" (erchetai) indicates a deliberate action, emphasizing Jesus' intentional approach to Peter. Simon Peter, often portrayed as the most outspoken and impulsive of the disciples, represents humanity's initial resistance to divine humility and service. Historically, Peter's character is a reflection of the early church's struggles with understanding the nature of Christ's servanthood. This moment is a profound illustration of Jesus' willingness to serve, challenging the social norms of the time where a teacher would never perform such a menial task for his disciples. who asked Him 'Lord, are You going to wash my feet?' Lord, dost thou wash my feet?--For the title, comp. Matthew 16:22. The word "Thou" is to be strongly emphasised, but the common error of reading "my" as an emphatic word is to be avoided. The act is in itself natural; perhaps is even one that he had expected from some of the less prominent in the apostolic band. What he cannot understand is that his Master should do it. "Lord, dost Thou wash my feet?" Comp. with this feeling of the Apostle at the close of our Lord's life that of John the Baptist at its commencement (Matthew 3:14-15). Verse 6. - It cannot be determined with whom our Lord commenced the feet-washing. Some of the older expositors have said it was with Judas. The οϋν might denote that several of the disciples, in awestruck wonder, had submitted without a word, and then (οϋν resumptive) he cometh to Simon Peter. But the great bulk of ancient and modern expositors suppose that Peter was the first to whom this great grace was offered. At all events, in his impulsive manner always rushing forwards, and ready to give his Master advice, and to be the mouthpiece of otherwise unuttered feelings, Peter was the first to exclaim, (and) he saith unto him, and with strong emphasis on the Σύ and the μου, Dost thou wash my feet? The protest was natural. It corresponds with many another scene in Peter's life; as when he said, "Depart from me; for I am a sinful man," or cried, "That be far from thee," and later on in this chapter, "Why cannot I follow thee now?" or, "I have never eaten anything common or unclean." This trait in Peter's character is wonderfully accurate, and corresponds with the portraiture of the same man in the synoptic narrative (see Introduction, p. 115.). There is here an analogous blending of reverence and self-will, of outwardness and forwardness - a new illustration of one who would distinguish himself by the greatness of his humility.Parallel Commentaries ...
