Jesus predicted many things, among them the world’s hatred for Him and His followers. All four Gospels show that Jesus was realistic about the hostility that would be directed at Him and His followers.
Jesus said, “No slave is greater than his master.” This statement carries profound implications. In today’s Gospel, He made it clear that if the world was hostile to the Master, the servants should anticipate the same treatment. It also signified that if the Master humbled Himself to wash the feet of the servants, they should be prepared to do the same for others, embodying humility and servitude.
Jesus's statement, “No slave is greater than his master,” gives us much to consider. It also underscores our dependence on the Holy Spirit to be like the Master.
