约翰福音 13:13 CUVS

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - John 13:1-38

Christ's Example Joh 13:15 The incident recorded in this chapter is made the more beautiful by certain features of surpassing grandeur which are found in immediate connection with it. There seems, indeed, at first an inequality between the majesty of the mountain and the value of the frail flower which blooms on its sunny height. We are startled by the difference between the introduction and the progress of the narrative. It is as if God had called attention by great thunderings, and when he... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - John 13:2-17

And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's s on, to betray him; (3) Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God: (4) He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. (5) After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded. (6) Then cometh he to Simon... read more

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Bible - John 13:1-17

1-17 Our Lord Jesus has a people in the world that are his own; he has purchased them, and paid dear for them, and he has set them apart for himself; they devote themselves to him as a peculiar people. Those whom Christ loves, he loves to the end. Nothing can separate a true believer from the love of Christ. We know not when our hour will come, therefore what we have to do in constant preparation for it, ought never to be undone. What way of access the devil has to men's hearts we cannot tell.... read more

F. B. Hole's Old and New Testament Commentary - John 13:1-99

John 13 THIS CHAPTER THEREFORE begins with a description of the spirit in which Jesus gathered His disciples together for the last Passover Supper. The other Gospels have told us all we need to know as to the surrounding circumstances; here we are made aware of the atmosphere of Divine love which graced the occasion. He was in the full knowledge of His approaching death, which is viewed as a departure out of the judged “cosmos” to the Father whilst He leaves behind in the “cosmos” a few who... read more

The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - John 13:12-17

The application of the washing of feet to the disciples: v. 12. So after He had washed their feet, and had taken His garments, and was set down again, He said unto to them, Know ye what I have done to you? v. 13. Ye call Me Master and Lord; and ye say well; for so I am. v. 14. If I, then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet. v. 15. For I have given you an example that ye should do as I have done to re you. v. 16. Verily, verily, I say... read more

F.B. Meyer's 'Through the Bible' Commentary - John 13:12-20

the Master’s Example John 13:12-20 Notwithstanding His great humility, Jesus expects to be regarded as Master and Lord; do we so call and treat Him? We must be as willing to obey Him as a soldier to obey his commanding officers, even when the order conflicts with his comfort, convenience, or safety. We must also do for each other, in our poor measure, what He has done for us, taking on us the form and work of a slave, that we may remove from each other any stain that may have been... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - John 13:1-38

For a time our Lord now devoted Himself to His own, and in this connection we have the account of His washing the disciples' feet. The whole action was Eastern, and was the action of a slave: By what He did and said our Lord intended to emphasize that the supreme action of God is service, and that fellowship with Him demands such action on the part of His followers. Then, in connection with the Pass over feast, Judas was excluded, and our Lord uttered the significant words, "Now is the Son of... read more

James Nisbet's Church Pulpit Commentary - John 13:13

THE CALL TO SERVICE‘Ye call Me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.’ John 13:13 The underlying foundation for every call to a definite step in the Christian life must be the plain teaching of our Lord Himself. I. If we ask what Christ saves men for, we find it summed up in a sentence thus: That we ‘might serve Him without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our life’ ( Luke 1:74-Susanna :). A life of service, fearlessly and happily rendered; with a heart... read more

Peter Pett

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 13:1-17

The Washing of the Feet: A Lesson in Humility (John 13:1-17 ). Two major lessons come out from this passage. The first is that of the example that Jesus was giving of true humility in love and service. He stressed that His disciples were similarly to behave as He has (John 13:13-17). The second is what is to be learned from His statement to Peter about the need for those who have already been bathed only to wash their feet. It was indicating that He was the source both of their initial... read more
