Which verse records Jesus washing the disciples' feet?

• A. John 13:4-17
• B. Luke 22:19-20
• C. 1 Corinthians 11:23-25
• D. Matthew 26:26-29

Answer: (A)

The main idea here is showing servant leadership and humility as a model for disciples. Jesus washing the disciples’ feet demonstrates how true followers serve others, even in humbling, ordinary tasks, and it ties that service to obedience and love. The best record of this act is in the Gospel of John, during the Last Supper, where Jesus rises, takes a towel, and washes their feet, then tells them, “If I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.” This passage emphasizes not just the act itself but the calling to imitate Jesus’ humility in daily ministry.

The other cited passages refer to the institution of the Lord’s Supper or the recounting of that meal (Luke and Paul’s account in 1 Corinthians), or to the accompanying meal details in Matthew. They do not depict the foot-washing event, which is why the John passage is the correct record for this question.
