John 13 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle VI

And dares any one now, who lives by and in this very One, lift up himself and be haughty, forgetful, as well of the deeds which He did, as of the commands which He left to us either by Himself or by His apostles? But if "the servant is not greater than his Lord."[14]

John 13:1 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian De Corona

If at once, of every article of furniture and each household vessel, you name some god of the world as the originator, well, I must recognise Christ, both as He reclines on a couch, and when He presents a basin for the feet of His disciples, and when He pours water into it from a ewer, and when He is girt about with a linen towel[27]

John 13:1 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian Against Praxeas

Now, in what way these things were said to Him, the evangelist and beloved disciple John knew better than Praxeas; and therefore he adds concerning i his own meaning: "Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus knew that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God, and was going to God."[323]

John 13:1 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

to His disciples.[92]

John 13:2 - NIV, NAB - in Origen de Principiis Book III

John 13:2 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on John Book X

For if any one gives place to the devil, Satan enters into him; thus did Judas give place, and thus did the devil put it in his heart to betray Jesus, and "after the sop," therefore," the devil entered into him."[161]

John 13:8 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

Others make the suggestion (forced enough, clearly "that the apostles then served the turn of baptism when in their little ship, were sprinkled and covered with the waves: that Peter himself also was immersed enough when he walked on the sea."[124]

John 13:8 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Against Celsus Book II

or how can He be styled arrogant, who after supper laid aside His garments in the presence of His disciples, and, after girding Himself with a towel, and pouring water into a basin, proceeded to wash the feet of each disciple, and rebuked him who was unwilling to allow them to be washed, with the words, "Except I wash thee, thou hast no part with Me?[22]

John 13:9 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

a second time; "[121]

John 13:9 - NIV, NAB - in Tertullian On Baptism

also, therefore was the definition touching the one bathing[157]

John 13:13 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on John Book I

" It is also written, "I am the door," and we have the saying, "I am the good shepherd," and when the woman of Samaria says, "We know the Messiah is coming, who is called Christ; when He comes, He will tell us all things," Jesus answers, "I that speak unto thee am He." Again, when He washed the disciples' feet, He declared Himself in these words[92]

John 13:13 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on John Book I

"the servant knoweth not what the master wills," since he is no longer his master, but has become his friend. The Lord Himself teaches this, for He says to hearers who were still servants:[143]

John 13:14 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Epistle V

For then He washed His disciples' feet, saying, "If I, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet, ye ought also to wash one another's feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you."[6]

lord, "[50]

John 13:16 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews

John 13:21 - NIV, NAB - in Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book V

and used to steal what was set apart for the needy, yet was he not cast off by the Lord, through much long-suffering; nay, and when we were once feasting with Him, being willing both to reduce him to his duty and instruct us in His own foreknowledge, He said: "Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you will betray me; "and every one of us saying, "Is it I? "[89]

to whom alone the Lord pointed Judas out as the traitor,[229]

John 13:27 - NIV, NAB - in Origen de Principiis Book III

John 13:27 - NIV, NAB - in Cyprian Treatise XII Three Books of Testimonies Against the Jews

John 13:27 - NIV, NAB - in Archelaus Acts of the Disputation with the Heresiarch Manes

themselves, Judas, as the head of all the evil, and as the person who carried out their iniquitous counsels to their consummation, was constituted the father of the crime, having received at their hands the recompense of thirty pieces of silver for his impious cruelty. For "after the sop Satan entered into him"[320]

John 13:27 - NIV, NAB - in Origen Commentary on Matthew Book XIII

Let it be granted, then, that, as in the case of Job, the Father first delivered up the Son to the opposing powers, and that then they delivered Him up into the hands of men, among which men Judas also was, into whom after the sop[67]

John 13:33 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria The Instructor Book I

In this way the Lord in the Gospels spurs on His disciples, urging them to attend to Him, hastening as He was to the Father; rendering His hearers more eager by the intimation that after a little He was to depart, and showing them that it was requisite that they should take more unsparing advantage of the truth than ever before, as the Word was to ascend to heaven. Again, therefore, He calls them children; for He says, "Children, a little while I am with you."[22]

John 13:33 - NIV, NAB - in Clement of Alexandria Stromata Book III

Lignum hic prius erat aridum; si autem Logo obedierit, et sabbata custodieri, per abstinentiam a peccatis, et fecerit mandata erit honorabilior iis, qui absque recta vitae institutione solo sermone erudiuntur. "Filioli, modicure" adhuc sum vobiscum,"[186]
