ἀρκεῖται γὰρ ἡμῖν, ἐπὰν ἔλθωμεν εἰς ταὐτὸ τοῖς τοῦ Ἰησοῦ μαθηταῖς καιροῦ, τὸ τοὺς πόδας αὐτῷ παρέχειν νίψοντι καὶ ἐκμάσσοντι μόνους· » Ὁ γὰρ λελουμένος οὐκ ἔχει χρείαν νίψασθαι, »ἀλλ’ ἔστιν καθαρὸς ὅλος«· εἰ δέ τις μή ἐστιν ὅλος καθαρός, οὐκ ἐλούσατο. Ζητήσαι δέ τις ἄν, εἰ ὁ λελουμένος οὐκ ἔχει χρείαν νίψασθαι ἀλλ’ ἔστιν καθαρός, καὶ ἦσαν οἱ τοῦ Ἰησοῦ μαθηταὶ καθαροί, ὡς λελουμένοι, πῶς βάλλει ὕδωρ εἰς τὸν νιπτῆρα καὶ ἤρξατο νίπτειν τοὺς πόδας τῶν μαθητῶν ὁ Ἰησοῦς; εἰς τοῦτο δὲ καὶ προλαβόντες μὲν ἐκ μέρους εἰρήκαμεν καὶ νῦν ἐκείνοις ταῦτα προσθήσομεν.
