Holy Thursday: The Triduum Begins


Jesus washing the feet of His disciples, by Albert Gustaf Aristides Edelfelt, 1898


“Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and dry them with the towel around his waist. He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, 'Master, are you going to wash my feet?' Jesus answered and said to him, 'What I am doing, you do not understand now, but you will understand later'" (John 13:5-7).

It's quite a lot later, do we understand?
