_____________________John 12:11_
Holy
Father,
protect them
in your name…
… that they
may be one,
as we are one.
Maundy from the Latin mandatum,
command to love one another that
Jesus gave to his disciples the
night they ate the Passover to-
gether, as he washed their
feet, including Judas who left
the dinner and betrayed
Jesus to the authorities.
Gee , now I can't remember exactly When Judas "went out"....He was at dinner. Was he there at the foot washing? I hope not.... I'll have to look later ... And now it's later and I am reminded that the footwashing is only in John and he doesn’t mention the institution of the Lord’s Supper.... the rest tell that story but not the washing of the feet. So, when exactly Judas bailed that evening l to sell Jesus out, we still don’t know…. I like to think that he could not have had that intimate time of footashing with Jesus and Then betrayed Jesus .... I guess I'm jI’ll just add it to the list of all the other things I have to ask when the time comes. I'll ask God or Judas himself- whoever I see first....
