FUMCAH

In Jesus' world, foot washing was slave work. So it it was even too low for Jewish servants. They were exempt from it. And yet, Jesus gets up from the table, He takes off his outer roll robe and ties a towel around his waist. That verb for taking off his robe, it's it's tithami. It's the same Greek word that later the gospel of John writer uses for Jesus to lay down his life on the cross. Jesus lays down the robe, and Jesus lays down his life in an act of service.
