John 13:6

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 13:6. Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

I do not wonder that he said that; would not you have been equally astonished had you been there? Peter had some faint idea who Christ was, he had confessed him in such a way that Jesus had said to him "Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven." Knowing so much about Christ, Peter did marvel at his action; he felt so astonished that he asked "Dost thou wash my feet?"
