7. Jesus: Identity and Servitude
John 13:1–5 (TNIV)
13 !It was just before the Passover Festival.
Jesus knew that the hour had come for him
to leave this world and go to the Father.
Having loved his own who were in the
world, he loved them to the end.
2The evening meal was in progress, and
the devil had already prompted Judas, the
son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
3Jesus knew that the Father had put all
things under his power, and that he had
come from God and was returning to God;
4so he got up from the meal, took off his
outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around
his waist. 5After that, he poured water into a
basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet,
drying them with the towel that was
wrapped around him.

what I am doing, but later you will
understand.”
8“No,” said Peter, “you shall never wash
my feet.”
Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you
have no part with me.”
9“Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not

This picture illustrates the biblical story of Christ washing his disciples’ feet at the Last Supper. It has an unusually low viewpoint and compressed space. Critics objected to the picture’s coarseness – it originally depicted Jesus only semi-clad. This caused an outcry when it was first exhibited and it remained unsold for several years until Ford Madox Brown reworked the figure in robes.Brown was never invited to join the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood but he was a close associate of the group. Several members modelled for the disciples in this picture and the critic F G Stephens sat for Christ.\n\n
