John 13:1 Made Simple

KJV ORIGINAL

Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

Close to the original. Clear modern English.

✦ MADE SIMPLE

Right before Passover, Jesus knew his time was up — that he was about to leave this world and go back to his Father. But here's the thing: he had always loved his people who were still here on earth, and he was going to love them all the way to the very end.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Even knowing he was about to die, Jesus' love for his people never wavered — not even for a second.
