The Lord’s Supper
Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him,
Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God,
Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God.
got up from supper, and laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.
So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist,
Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet
Then He poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.
and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him.
So He came to Simon Peter. He said to Him, “Lord, do You wash my feet?”
When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
Jesus answered and said to him, “What I do you do not realize now, but you will understand hereafter.”
Jesus replied, “You don’t understand now what I am doing, but someday you will.”
Peter said to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”
“No,” Peter protested, “you will never ever wash my feet!”
Jesus replied, “Unless I wash you, you won’t belong to me.”
Jesus replied, “Unless I wash you, you won’t belong to me.”
Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.”
Simon Peter exclaimed, “Then wash my hands and head as well, Lord, not just my feet!”
Jesus said to him, “He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you.”
For He knew the one who was betraying Him; for this reason He said, “Not all of you are clean.”
For Jesus knew who would betray him. That is what he meant when he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
After washing their feet, he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, “Do you understand what I was doing?
“You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.
You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am.
“If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet.
“For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.
I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.
I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message.
“If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.
Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them.
“I do not speak of all of you. I know the ones I have chosen; but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘HE WHO EATS MY BREAD HAS LIFTED UP HIS HEEL AGAINST ME.’
“From now on I am telling you before it comes to pass, so that when it does occur, you may believe that I am He.
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”
I tell you the truth, anyone who welcomes my messenger is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming the Father who sent me.”
Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
When Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you will betray Me.”
The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know of which one He was speaking.
The disciples looked at each other, wondering whom he could mean.
There was reclining on Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.
So Simon Peter gestured to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.”
Simon Peter motioned to him to ask, “Who’s he talking about?”
He, leaning back thus on Jesus’ bosom, said to Him, “Lord, who is it?”
So that disciple leaned over to Jesus and asked, “Lord, who is it?”
Jesus then answered, “That is the one for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the morsel, He took and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
Jesus responded, “It is the one to whom I give the bread I dip in the bowl.” And when he had dipped it, he gave it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot.
After the morsel, Satan then entered into him. Therefore Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
When Judas had eaten the bread, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus told him, “Hurry and do what you’re going to do.”
Now no one of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him.
None of the others at the table knew what Jesus meant.
For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we have need of for the feast”; or else, that he should give something to the poor.
Since Judas was their treasurer, some thought Jesus was telling him to go and pay for the food or to give some money to the poor.
So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and it was night.
So Judas left at once, going out into the night.
Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him;
if God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.
“Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’
Dear children, I will be with you only a little longer. And as I told the Jewish leaders, you will search for me, but you can’t come where I am going.
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.
So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other.
“By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.”
Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?” Jesus answered, “Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you will follow later.”
Simon Peter asked, “Lord, where are you going?”
And Jesus replied, “You can’t go with me now, but you will follow me later.”
And Jesus replied, “You can’t go with me now, but you will follow me later.”
Peter said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You right now? I will lay down my life for You.”
“But why can’t I come now, Lord?” he asked. “I’m ready to die for you.”
