Jadi jikalau Aku membasuh kakimu, Aku yang adalah Tuhan dan Gurumu, maka kamupun wajib saling membasuh kakimu;
Jikalau Aku, Tuhan dan Guru, sudah membasuh kakimu, patutlah kamu juga membasuh kaki sama sendiri.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
If I then your Lord and Master,.... Christ argues from these titles and characters, which his disciples rightly gave him, and from what he had done to them, though he stood in such a superior relation to them, to their duty one towards another; that since, says he, I
have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet: by which he does not mean barely, that they should perform this single action; but as this was an instance of humility and condescension, and doing a good office to strangers and travellers, and was afterwards an expression of love to the saints, see 1 Timothy 5:10, so he would teach them hereby, to behave in a spirit of humility and condescension to one another, to do every kind and good office, and by love to serve one another in all things.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Ye also ought to wash ... - Some have understood this literally as instituting a religious rite which we ought to observe; but this was evidently not the design; because:
- There is no evidence that Jesus intended it as a religious observance, like the Lord’s Supper or the ordinance of baptism.
- It was not observed by the apostles or the primitive Christians as a religious rite.
- It was a rite of hospitality among the Jews, a common, well-known thing, and performed by servants.
- It is the manifest design of Jesus here to inculcate a lesson of humility; to teach them by his example that they ought to condescend to the most humble offices for the benefit of others. They ought not to be proud, and vain, and unwilling to occupy a low place, but to regard themselves as the servants of each other, and as willing to befriend each other in every way. And especially as they were to be founders of the church, and to be greatly honored, he took this occasion of warning them against the dangers of ambition, and of teaching them, by an example that they could not forget, the duty of humility.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse John 13:14. Ye also ought to wash one another feet. — That is, ye should be ready, after my example, to condescend to all the weakness of your brethren; to be willing to do the meanest offices for them, and to prefer the least of them in honour to yourselves.
