ヨハネの福音書 13:6-20 JCB

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:10

Jesus saith to him, he that is washed ,.... Not he that is baptized; for every such person is not wholly clean, but he who is regenerated by the Spirit of God, or rather, who is washed in the blood of Christ: such an one "is clean every whit"; is all over clean; not that he has no sin in him, nor commits any; but as he is washed in the blood of Christ, and justified by his righteousness, he is wholly and entirely clean in the sight of God; for he is justified from all things he could not be... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:11

For he knew who should betray him ,.... That is, Jesus, as Beza's ancient copy, and the Syriac and Persic versions read. This he knew from the beginning; not only from the beginning of his ministry, when he chose his twelve apostles, but from the beginning of time, yea, from everlasting; this being fixed by the determinate counsel of God, which he, as the omniscient God, was privy to: he knew what preparations were making, and how things were then working, in order to bring it about; he knew... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:12

So after he had washed their feet ,.... Not Peter's only, but the rest of the disciples also: some have thought, that he washed only the feet of some of them, and not all; but it seems, by this expression, that he performed this service to each of them: and when he had gone through it with everyone of them: and had taken his garments , and put them on, and was sat down again ; at the table with his disciples, supper not being yet ended; when having done his work as a servant, he... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:13

Ye call me Master and Lord ,.... רבי , and מר , "Master" and "Lord", were dignified titles among the Jews, which they frequently F25 Vid. T. Bab. Beracot, fol. 3. 1. Derech Erets, c. 6. fol. 18. 2. gave to their doctors and men of learning, and are often to be met with in their writings: hence the disciples called Christ by these names, not out of flattery, but reverence of him, and esteem for him; nor are they blamed, but commended for it: and ye say well, for so I am ; though... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:14

If I then your Lord and Master ,.... Christ argues from these titles and characters, which his disciples rightly gave him, and from what he had done to them, though he stood in such a superior relation to them, to their duty one towards another; that since, says he, I have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet : by which he does not mean barely, that they should perform this single action; but as this was an instance of humility and condescension, and doing a good... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:15

For I have given you an example ,.... Christ is an example to his people, in many things; not in his miraculous performances and mediatorial work, but in the exercise of grace, of meekness, humility, love, patience, and the like; and in the discharge of duty, in submission to ordinances, and in attending on them; and in the several duties, both to them that are without, and to them that are within; and also in his sufferings and death; not that he died merely as an example, but likewise in... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:16

Verily, verily, I say unto you ,.... This is a strong way of asseveration, and is used when anything of moment and importance, and worthy of attention and observation is delivered. The servant is not greater than his Lord ; it is enough that he be as his Lord, which was a common phrase among the Jews; See Gill on Matthew 10:24 , Matthew 10:25 ; and as it is there made use of, to inform the disciples they must expect persecution, and to encourage them to bear it with patience; here it... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:17

If ye know these things ,.... The duties they owed to him, and one another; those kind offices of love and respect to each other; the humility, condescension, and brotherly love, which ought to be in them, and of which he had given them an example: happy are ye if ye do them ; for the bare theory, or a mere speculative knowledge of these things, is not sufficient; not he that knows and does not, but he that knows and does his master's will, is blessed; he is blessed with communion with... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:18

I speak not of you all. What he had before said on the one hand, "ye are not all clean", John 13:11 , for one of them was not; and on the other hand, when he put an "if" upon, or seemed to doubt of their knowing and doing these things, John 13:17 ; or what he was about to say concerning his being betrayed, this he did not speak of them all: I know whom I have chosen ; not to apostleship, for they were all chosen to that, Judas as well as the rest, but to grace and glory, to... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 13:19

Now I tell you before it come ,.... That is, gave them notice of this before hand, that one of them should betray him: that when it is come to pass ; and they had seen it fulfilled exactly to a tittle, and according to this Scripture: ye may believe that I am he : the Lord God omniscient, who knows and declares things before they come to pass, just as they do come to pass, which none but the eternal God can do; and that he was the Saviour and Redeemer, the Messiah spoken of and... read more
