Jesus knew that the Father had delivered all things into His hands This phrase emphasizes Jesus' divine authority and sovereignty. The concept of "all things" being delivered into His hands signifies complete control and dominion, echoing the authority given to the Son in Matthew 28:18, where Jesus states, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me." This authority is rooted in the Old Testament, where the Messiah is prophesied to have dominion (Psalm 2:8, Daniel 7:14). The phrase also reflects the fulfillment of God's plan, as Jesus is entrusted with the mission of salvation and judgment (John 5:22-27). The imagery of being "delivered into His hands" suggests a transfer of power and responsibility, highlighting the trust and unity between the Father and the Son. and that He had come from God and was returning to God Persons / Places / Events 1. JesusThe central figure in this passage, Jesus is aware of His divine authority and mission. This knowledge sets the stage for His act of humility in washing the disciples' feet. 2. The Father God the Father, who has entrusted all things to Jesus, highlighting the divine relationship and authority Jesus possesses. 3. The Disciples Although not directly mentioned in this verse, they are the recipients of Jesus' forthcoming act of service, which is informed by His understanding of His divine mission. 4. The Upper Room The setting for the Last Supper, where Jesus shares His final teachings and performs the act of foot washing. 5. The Event of Foot Washing This act follows the verse and is a demonstration of servant leadership, rooted in Jesus' understanding of His identity and mission. Teaching Points Understanding Divine AuthorityRecognize that Jesus' awareness of His divine authority did not lead to pride but to humble service. As believers, understanding our identity in Christ should lead us to serve others. The Model of Servant Leadership Jesus' knowledge of His mission and authority empowered Him to serve. We are called to lead by serving, following His example. Confidence in God's Plan Jesus' assurance of His origin and destiny in God provides a model for trusting God's plan for our lives, even when it involves humility and sacrifice. Identity and Mission Knowing who we are in Christ and our purpose can guide our actions and interactions with others, just as it did for Jesus.(3) Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands . . .--This explains the act of humility which follows. With the full consciousness of His supreme power and divine origin, and' of the divine glory to which He was about to return; yes, because He was conscious of all this, He left the disciples an example of the self-denial which is the necessary outcome of love. "Subsisting in the form of God, He thought it not a thing to be grasped at to be equal with God, but emptied Himself by taking upon Him the form of a servant, and being made in the likeness of men" (Philippians 2:6). (Comp. for the thought of the gift of all things, Notes on 1Corinthians 15:25; Ephesians 1:22.)Verse 3. - Knowing - a significant hint of the complex wonder of the Lord's Person. John felt at this moment that the consciousness of Jesus was receding into the eternal self-consciousness of the Logos when he thus ventures to speak - that the Father - in the great act of his generation - gave all things into his hands, and that he came forth (ἀπὸ) from God, and was going back (or, away) to God, in the glory of his incarnation and the mystery of his death and resurrection. The whole of the incarnate ministry of Jesus was a separation, to some extent, from God, just as the close of it, in the death and resurrection, was a return to the glory which he had with the Father before all worlds. We must admit the extraordinary quality of the evangelist's assertion. He here throws back into the majestic manner of the Christ the hints which the subsequent discourse of our Lord must have given him of the Divine greatness which flashed at times from his sacred Person, and conferred a boundless significance on the subsequent act of humiliation. Christ gave the highest proof of his Divine self-consciousness in this display of his condescending love, this voluntary abasement to the lowest place in the household of faith. The use of εἰδὼς twice ever (vers. 1 and 3) is contrasted with the γνώσῃ of ver. 7. The vast confessions here made are declared to be matters of absolute intuitive knowledge, not the results of long experience. Christ did not "come to know;" he "knew" all these facts about himself. It must not be supposed that this was a theological idea which came into the writer's mind afterwards. St. Paul, in the Epistle to the Philippians (Philippians 2:6-8), had adequately grasped the same thought long before St. John penned this Gospel (cf. 2 Corinthians 8:9). Parallel Commentaries ...
