No. 545. Before or after Supper.

WHY is the ordinance of humility (feet washing) held before the Lord's supper, when Jesus did this after supper?

N. H. Z

The supper referred to in John 13:2, 4 is not the Lord's supper, but the Passover supper, which preceded the institution of the Lord's supper. The feet washing came in between verses 18 and 19 of Luke 22. We have not space to explain in detail. For full explanation send for "Rejected Ordinance," by W. H. Littlejohn, Review and Herald, Battle Creek, Mich. Price, 10 cents.
