John 13:25 Meaning and Commentary

John 13:25

He then lying on Jesus' breast
Being on the couch just before Jesus, with his back to him, he bends backwards, and falling on Jesus' breast, whispers in his ear:

and saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
using his interest in Christ, and making thus free with him, in compliance with Peter's request; and was no doubt desirous himself of knowing who the person was.

John 13:25 In-Context

23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom, one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, to ask who it should be of whom he spoke.

25 He then lying on Jesus' breast, saith to him, Lord, who is it?

26 Jesus answered, He it is to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped [it]. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, [the son] of Simon.

27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus to him, What thou doest, do quickly.
