When Jesus had finished washing their feet, he put his clothes back on and returned to his place. “Do you understand what I’ve done for you?” he asked them.
Jesus answered, “You don’t realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
So he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothes, and wrapped a towel around his waist.
“Do you understand all these things?” Jesus asked. “Yes,” they replied.
Then Jesus said to them, “Don’t you understand this story? Then how will you understand any of the stories?
Who is more important, the one at the table or the one who serves? Isn’t it the one who’s at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
