"Do you understand what I have been doing to you? You call me 'Teacher' and 'Master', and you say well, for such I am.

Jesus Christ » History of » Washes the disciples' feet (in jerusalem)
Now just before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour was come when he should leave this world to go to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, showed forth his love to the end. So while supper was proceeding, and the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him, Jesus, knowing that the Father had given everything into his hands, and that he was come from God, read more.
and was now going to God, rose from supper, laid aside his upper garments, and took a towel and girded himself. Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples and to wipe them with the towel with which he had girded himself. Then he came to Simon Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?" Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand it later." Peter answered, "No, never shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," said Jesus, "you have no part in me." "Lord," said Simon Peter, "not my feet only, but also my hands and my head." Jesus said: "He who has bathed needs only to have his feet washed, and he is altogether clean; and you are clean, but not all of you." (For he knew who should betray him, for that reason he said that they were not every one of them clean.) So after he had washed their feet, and had put on his upper garments again, and taken his place, he said to them. "Do you understand what I have been doing to you? You call me 'Teacher' and 'Master', and you say well, for such I am. If then I have washed your feet, I the 'Master' and the 'Teacher', you also ought to wash one another's feet, for I have given you an example, that you also should do what I have done to you.

Judas » Foretold
Then when Judas, his betrayer, saw that he was condemned, he repented and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders. "I have sinned," he said, "in betraying innocent blood!" "What is that to us?" they answered; "you must see to that." And flinging down the silver into the Sanctuary, he rushed out, and went and hanged himself. read more.
The chief priests took the money, and said, "It would be wrong to put it into the temple-treasury, because it is the price of blood." So after the consultation they bought the Potter's Field with it, for a burial-place for strangers. That is the reason why, to this day, the field is called "The Field of Blood." Then was fulfilled the word spoken by the prophet Jeremiah. And I took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him who had been priced, whom certain of the Children of Israel had priced; and gave them for the Potter's Field, as the Lord had appointed me.
