By washing His disciples’ dirty feet, Jesus gave us a powerful example of servanthood in order to enable us to defeat our own tendency toward selfishness and pride. True blessing in the Christian life comes from following His example. The spiritual significance of the washing goes to our salvation in Christ, such that, unless Jesus washes us we have no part with Him.
