Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.” “You are not all clean.” “Do you know what I have done to you? You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am. If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.
