Juan 13:13

Listen to Juan 13:13
13 Vosotros me llamáis, Maestro, y, Señor: y decís bien; porque lo soy.

Juan 13:13 Meaning and Commentary

John 13:13

Ye call me Master and Lord
(ybr) , and (rm) , "Master" and "Lord", were dignified titles among the Jews, which they frequently F25 gave to their doctors and men of learning, and are often to be met with in their writings: hence the disciples called Christ by these names, not out of flattery, but reverence of him, and esteem for him; nor are they blamed, but commended for it:

and ye say well, for so I am;
though he had acted the part of a servant in such a surprising manner, by washing their feet; yet he had not dropped and lost, but still maintains his place and authority as a "Master" to teach and instruct them, and as a "Lord" to rule and govern them.

Juan 13:13 In-Context

11 Porque sabía quién le había de entregar; por eso dijo: No estáis limpios todos.
12 Así que, después que les hubo lavado los pies, y tomado su ropa, volviéndose á sentar á la mesa, díjoles: ¿Sabéis lo que os he hecho?
13 Vosotros me llamáis, Maestro, y, Señor: y decís bien; porque lo soy.
14 Pues si yo, el Señor y el Maestro, he lavado vuestros pies, vosotros también debéis lavar los pies los unos á los otros.
15 Porque ejemplo os he dado, para que como yo os he hecho, vosotros también hagáis.
