[3][That] Jesus, knowing (fully aware) that the Father had put everything into His hands, and that He had come from God and was [now] returning to God,
[4]Got up from supper, took off His garments, and taking a [servant’s] towel, He fastened it around His waist.
[5]Then He poured water into the washbasin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the [servant’s] towel with which He was girded.

[14]If I then, your Lord and Teacher (Master), have washed your feet, you ought [it is your duty, you are under obligation, you owe it] to wash one another’s feet.
[15]For I have given you this as an example, so that you should do [in your turn] what I have done to you.
[16]I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, A servant is not greater than his master, and no one who is sent is
