On this verse

Draft selections — awaiting the founder’s edit.

Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. 9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. 10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

Matthew Henry· Commentary on the Whole Bible, 1710puritan

Peter saith, Lord, whither goest thou? - St. Peter seems to have thought, that Christ, being rejected by the Jews, would go to some other part of the earth to erect his throne, where he might reign without disturbance, according to the gross notions he had of Christ's kingdom.

John Wesley (NT Notes)· Explanatory Notes upon the Bible, 1765evangelical

Peter said--seeing plainly in these directions how to behave themselves, that He was indeed going from them. Lord, whither goest thou?--having hardly a glimmer of the real truth. Jesus answered, . . . thou canst not follow me now, but thou shalt follow me afterwards--How different from what He said to the Jews: "Whither I go ye cannot come" (Joh 8:21).
