John 13:1-19 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world to the Father… Henry the Eighth used to come up the Thames to Chelsea to Sir Thomas More's house, drop in to dinner, and walk afterwards in the garden, his arms about More's neck. More's son-in-law, Roper, records it with delight. But More knew just what all this was worth, and that his head would count with the king for nothing against a French city or citadel, say. It is not so with Christ. "Having loved His own which were in the world, He loved them to the end." Parallel Verses KJV: Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end. |
