12:48. He that despiseth me and receiveth not my words hath one that judgeth him. The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. 12:49. For I have not spoken of myself: but the Father who sent me, he gave me commandment what I should say and what I should speak. 12:50. And I know that his commandment is life everlasting. The things therefore that I speak, even as the Father said unto me, so do I speak. John Chapter 13 Christ washes his disciples' feet. The treason of Judas. The new commandment of love. 13:1. Before the festival day of the pasch, Jesus knowing that his hour was come, that he should pass out of this world to the Father: having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end. Before the festival day of the pasch... This was the fourth and last pasch of the ministry of Christ, and according to the common computation, was in the thirty-third year of our Lord: and in the year of the world 4036. Some chronologers are of opinion that our Saviour suffered in the thirty-seventh year of his age: but these different opinions on this subject are of no consequence. 13:2. And when supper was done (the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him), 13:3. Knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands and that he came from God and goeth to God, 13:4. He riseth from supper and layeth aside his garments and, having taken a towel, girded himself. 13:5. After that, he putteth water into a basin and began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. 13:6. He cometh therefore to Simon Peter. And Peter saith to him: Lord, dost thou wash my feet? 13:7. Jesus answered and said to him: What I do, thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. 13:8. Peter saith to him: Thou shalt never wash my feet, Jesus answered him: If I wash thee not, thou shalt have no part with me. 13:9. Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head. 13:10. Jesus saith to him: He that is washed needeth not but to wash his feet, but is clean wholly. And you are clean, but not all. 13:11. For he knew who he was that would betray him; therefore he said: You are not all clean. 13:12. Then after he had washed their feet and taken his garments, being set down again, he said to them: Know you what I have done to you? 13:13. You call me Master and Lord. And you say well: for so I am. 13:14. If then I being your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet. 13:15. For I have given you an example, that as I have done to you, so you do also. 13:16. Amen, amen, I say to you: The servant is not greater than his lord: neither is the apostle greater than he that sent him. 13:17. If you know these things, you shall be blessed if you do them.
