l judge him at the last day. [12:49] For I have
not spoken of myself; but the Father who sent me gave me commandment
what to say and what to speak; [12:50]and I know that his commandment
is eternal life. What things I speak, therefore, I so speak as the
Father has told me.

CHAPTER XVI.

CHRIST AT THE LAST SUPPER, AND HIS SERMON TO THE ELEVEN.

1 [13:1]AND before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his
hour had come to depart from this world to the Father, having loved his
own in the world he loved them to the end. [13:2]And supper being over,
the devil having already put it in the heart that Judas Iscariot, the
son of Simon, should betray him, [13:3]he knowing that the Father had
given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was
going to God, [13:4]arose from supper, and laid aside his clothes, and
taking a towel girded himself: [13:5]Then he put water into the
wash-basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them
with the towel with which he was girded.

2 [13:6]Then he came to Simon Peter; he said to him, Lord, do you wash

done to you? [13:13] You call me Teacher and Lord; and you say well,
for I am. [13:14]If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your
feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. [13:15]For I have
given you an example, that you also should do as I have done. [13:16]I
tell you most truly, the servant is not greater than his lord, nor the
apostle greater than he that sent him. [13:17]If you know these things,
blessed are you if you do them. [13:18]I speak not of you all; I know
whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He that
eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me. [13:19]I tell you
from this time, before it occurs, that when it occurs you
