“When he (Jesus) had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. ”Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them. "You call me 'Teacher' and 'Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.” John 13:12-14
