The time of the Passover has come, and Jesus has gathered with his disciples in the upper room where he will institute the ordinance of the Lord’s Supper. Before that happens, Jesus humbles himself before his disciples, takes the job of a servant upon himself, and begins to wash their feet. This act of service is confusing to Peter, who refuses to receive it at first, then asks to be washed entirely. After predicting that one of the men breaking bread with him would betray him, Jesus commands his disciples to love one another, just as he has loved them. This is how the world will know those who follow Jesus. Our reading concludes with Jesus predicting that Peter would deny him three times before the rooster crows.
