VER. 14.

Εἰ οὖν ἐγὼ ἔνιψα ὑμῶν τοὺς πόδας, ὁ κύριος καὶ ὁ διδάσκαλος, καὶ ὑμεῖς ὀφείλετε ἀλλήλων νίπτειν τοὺς πόδας.

Οὐ περὶ πάντων ὑμῶν λέγω· Ἐγὼ οἶδα οὓς ἐξελεξάμην· ἀλλ ̓ ἵνα ἡ γραφὴ πληρωθῇ Ὁ τρώγων μετ ̓ αὐτοῦ τὸν ἄρτον, ἐπῆρεν ἐπ' ἐμὲ τὴν πτέρναν αὐτοῦ.

bYe have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain : that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you, John xv. 16. If ye were of the world, the world would love his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hateth 19.

* Or, from henceforth.

a And now I have told you before it come to pass; that when it is come to pass, ye might believe, John xiv. 29.

Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, xx. 2. Therefore that disciple whom Jesus loved saith unto Peter, It is the Lord, xxi. 7. Then Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; which also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, which is he that betrayeth thee? 20. This is the disciple which testifieth of these things, and wrote these things: and we know that his testimony is true, 24.

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father, Phil. ii. 10, 11.

Λέγει αὐτῷ Σίμων Πέτζος Κύριε, που ὑπάγεις; Απεκρίθη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς. Ὅπου υπάγω, οὐ δύνασαί μοι νῦν ἀκολουθῆσαι, ὕστερον δὲ ἀκολουθήσεις μοι.

a A new commandment I give unto you, b That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

Again, a new commandment I write unto you; which thing is true in him and in you: because the darkness is past, and the true light now shineth. He that saith he is in the light, and hateth his brother, is in darkness even until now. He that loveth his brother abideth in the light, and there is none occasion of stumbling in him. But he that hateth his brother, is in darkness, and walketh in darkness, and knoweth not whither he goeth, because that darkness hath blinded his eyes, 1 John ii. 8—11. And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment 'unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another, 2 John 5.

For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens, 2 Cor. v. 1.
