He washed His disciples’ feet, and in that culture, washing feetwas a job for the lowest of the low. Feet would have been filthy from walking, yet Jesus humbly wrapped a towel around His waist and began to gently wash away the dirt. The wo...
A watching crowd jeered at Jesus as His body hung with nails hammered into His palms and feet.
