In the ancient Jewish and Greco-Roman world, the washing of feet was often the lowest form of servitude, a task delegated to slaves. But Jesus, the glorious king of heaven, knelt down and washed the feet of sinners. Most amazing of all, he even washed the feet of Judas, His betrayer. Just as the Master bowed down to serve, we as His disciples must bow down to serve others—even our enemies.
