Jesus wanted to teach the disciples a lesson in
humility, and He did it in a unique way, one
that the disciples wouldn't forget.
He got up from the
table and after taking
off His robe, He took a
towel and wrapped it
around Himself.
Then He put
water in a basin and
began to wash their
feet.
Read John 13:3-5
It was a way of rebuking their selfish
ambitions.
