Introduction123456789101112131415161718192021LukeActs John 13
Evidently there is a meaning here not seen on the surface (verse 12). "He that is washed [bathed (louo), which is regeneration] needeth not except to wash [nipto] his feet" (verse 10). The spiritual meaning is that He is cleansing His own from the defilement of the world (1 John 1:9) in order to restore them to fellowship. He is sending them out to do the same thing (verse 14, cf. Galatians 6:1).
He is now warning His own and preparing them, since He would soon go to the cross.
