The Servant King (John 13:1-17)

John 13 presents a powerful scene of Jesus’ humility and love as He washes His disciples’ feet. This act occurs just before the Passover Festival, when Jesus knows that His hour has come and that He will soon face the cross. Despite having all authority and knowing He was about to return to the Father, Jesus takes the position of a servant, kneeling down to wash the feet of His disciples, including Judas, who would soon betray Him.
