In this episode, Ronn and Mike discuss the events and conversations recorded in John 13. Ronn began by recommending that the "dinner" of John 13:2 recalled the supper hosted in Lazarus' home (as described in 12:1-8) a week prior to Jesus' crucifixion and not during the final Passover evening. Jesus' "new commandment" to love others (13:34) was therefore to be understood in reference to his washing of his followers' feet beyond that of the 12 disciples—likely visitors to Lazarus' home who would have been considered outsiders to the family of Israel. The episode ends by considering the evidence (both pro and con) for whether John 13-17 took place during Passover evening or the week prior.
