Washing the feet of one\u2019s guests was an act of hospitality on the part of a host and was usually performed by a servant, not the host. Peter considered it to be demeaning for the Master to be performing the task of a servant, yet this is exactly what Yeshua was attempting to demonstrate. As the Messiah, he came to lay down his life in loving service for his disciples and not to be served (Matt 20:28; John 10:15; 15:13). Yeshua then made the point that his disciples should following his example in serving one another (vv. 12\u201317).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2016\/03\/18\/foot-washing\/footwashing-16957924\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8340\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-8340\" src=\"http:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Footwashing-16957924-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Footwashing 16957924\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Footwashing-16957924-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Footwashing-16957924.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemory\"><a href=\"javascript:\" onclick=\"Evernote.doClip({title: 'Foot Washing\u2014An Act of Loving Service',url: 'https:\/\/hoshanarabbah.org\/blog\/2016\/03\/18\/foot-washing\/',contentID: 'post-8339',suggestTags: 'Foot Washing,John,Passover,Yeshua',providerName: 'Hoshana Rabbah Blog',styling: 'text' });return false\" class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryLink\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/static.evernote.com\/article-clipper.png\" \nclass=\"evernoteSiteMemoryButton\" \/>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\t\t\t\t<div class=\"evernoteSiteMemoryClear\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John 13:8, You will never wash.
